The Rock has been performing solidly since installation. I had backups to my ancient Thecus NAS without issue. I had read it was best practice to backup to a couple of different places, so I added another location using the attached WD USB drive, which is where music is stored, again without issue and performing like a champ.
Shortly after the add’l backup location was saved, Roon failed, stopping midstream. The client app simply reported “There was an issue loading your database”. Reboot of the NUC did not resolve. I can load the IP page which gives the OS, DB & Settings and Network details, but the client software on a typical Dell Windows 10 machine fails. As does the app on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV.
I figured my next step is to reset the DB. Choosing this option gave error:
Settings and databses could not be reset. Please try again, or contact support. {“status”:“Failure”,“exitcode”:2}
So I tried again, same error.
Next I hit reset button on Roon Server Software option, no error, but did see the Missing Codecs warning. Progess! I restarted the Roon client which then connected as a new installation.
Logged in, navigated to settings, backup, located my backups, chose the previous day’s backup and began the restore. It hung at 27%.
What is my next step?
