Applications not installing on correct volume

Hello,

I have three volumes, two disks on RAID0, one as a single disk and two disks on RAID1.

I went into applications, set the installation volume to Volume 3, as that is the one where I have most space.

I installed Apache, MariaDB and NextCloud. NextCloud worked fine for a day, but then I needed to make available via public IP, so I edited the nextcloud config.php.

I then restarted the TerraMaster (F5-221). When it came back on, it refused to show me the user interface with nginx bad gateway 502.

After a couple of restarts, I had to re-install TOS.

After reinstallation, I could again see my volumes. However, Volume 3, where previous applications were installed was now blank with only 16MB on.

I set it again as the application volume and attempted to reinstall my apps. However, all apps installed on Volume 1 (I could literally see the free space changing as they were installing).

I reset the applications volume back to 1 and then back to 3. Now Volume 3 is showing 700MB content.

Again I try to install the applications and again they are going back to Volume 1.

I am thinking, I want to delete Volume 3 and recreate it, but it's impossible. I delete Volume 3 and a few seconds later it comes right back up.

This TOS is a really immature piece of software!

Any help, please?

I have finally managed to delete Volume 3 and recreate it.

However, it doesn't matter if I set Applications to install on Volume 3. When the application actually installs, it still installs on Volume 1.

Before reinstalling the TOS system, are the installed applications correctly stored in volume 3?

Yes, they were.

But after I reinstalled TOS they disappeared.

Now, even when I select Volume 3 for my applications, TOS installs my applications on Volume 1, no matter what I do.
