After the update to TrueNAS Scale 24.10.1 I cannot run any scripts anymore. I just verified it as well in a clean installation. I login with truenas_admin and create a simple shell script: #!/bin/zsh echo "Hello World" Permissions are set as follows: -rwxrwxrwx 1 truenas_admin truenas_admin 30 …

/home by default has the noexec property set on TrueNAS. There was a ZFS bug in earlier versions that caused this to not be evaluated properly for filesystems in the boot pool. TL;DR maybe put your scripts on the data pool. The boot pool should not be used for anything other than ephermeral data.

Thx, that helped :slight_smile:

IMO this is an unexpected regression for a .1 release, even if it was a bug that it worked before. Cron jobs I had been using since 23.10 have been broken by this change.

Same for me. I was surprised that my remote server was lost (wireguard connection is handled by script), where 24.10.0 worked flawlessly.

We have posted a release note for this. It’s due to a bugfix in upstream ZFS since these paths should not have been executable. They were explicitly set as noexec since 24.04 was released (or maybe 23.10), but there were some ZFS properties that weren’t being properly loaded on boot, which allowed f…

Trying to run a script to format multiple devices in parallel. The devices I’m trying to format will comprise the data pool, but until then, I only have a boot pool. How can I execute the script without a data pool?

I’ve got a similar use case on one of my systems. I got a 500GB SATA SSD and make a single-drive pool from that to hold my scripts, etc.

Hey @awalkerix , Would you have a link to the specified release note ? My whole Ansible configuration for TrueNas is completely failing since 24.10 which I understand is because of the noexec on some commands that my scripts rely on that are on the boot root, but more importantly all my LXCs exhibi…

The boot pool is now properly enforcing the default setuid and noexec options ( NAS-127825 ). This restores the default boot pool behavior to be restricted from general use. Users that are currently attempting to exec scripts from a /home or other boot pool location should move these to a data pool …

In case people come here like me because they see some weird behaviour using ansible or bash behaving weirdly. I think I’m actually hit by this problem instead.
