Hi,
I’m having an issue with apps in TrueNAS SCALE (version 24.10.2.1). I have a properly configured apps pool (Crucial 2TB SSD mounted at /mnt/Dysk_serwerowy_2TB/APPs). Everything works fine until I reboot the server — after that, all apps disappear from the list, as if none were installed.
What I’ve tried:
Removing and re-adding the apps pool in Apps > Settings > Manage Storage — this makes the apps reappear, but only until the next reboot.
Deleting all apps and reinstalling them using default settings — same issue after reboot.
All apps were installed via the GUI. The dataset is accessible, and everything else in the system works fine.
Manually recovering apps after each reboot is not a viable solution.
Has anyone experienced this? Any ideas how to fix it permanently?
How many apps are you running? There is a known issue with the apps service hitting a timeout in 24.10 that is fixed in 25.04. The timeout causes the service to not initialize properly for the UI but the apps are actually running in Docker. This usually happens with slower HDD app pools or a large number of containers though.
At the time the issue occurred, I had four apps installed: Nextcloud, Home Assistant, Minecraft Server, and Jellyfin. All of them were installed with default settings and used a pool located on a Crucial MX500 2TB SSD, so it’s not a slow HDD.
Still, after every reboot, all apps disappear from the UI, and I have to manually reassign the pool in Apps > Settings > Manage Storage for them to show up again. This is really inconvenient.
Is there any workaround for this in version 24.10.2.1, or is upgrading to 25.04 the only solution?
