I – Qnap Machintosh AFP Problems 

AFP (Apple Filing Protocol) is the Apple’s network filesharing protocol for Mac OS.
The open source implementation QNAP use is netatalk

First things to check:
- Check that AFP is enabled!

- DHX2 Authentication Support – must be enabled for Mac OS 10.7 and above

- For Mac OS 10.9, NAS firmware must be 4.1.0 or more

.

Troubleshooting AFP

Make sure AFP process is running:


Network is listening on correct port:

.

If you want to enable debug for AFP, you can run following steps to do it:

Disconnect all AFP clients, include Time Machine in Mac.
# setcfg Global “log level” default:maxdebug -f /etc/afp.conf
# setcfg Global “log file” /share/Public/afpd.log -f /etc/afp.conf
# /etc/init.d/atalk.sh reload
Then the debug log is in /share/Public/afpd.log.

The debug log will disable automatically after AFP restart again

.

AFP/SMB on Mac OS

Mac OS can also use Samba protocol to connect

Finder > Go > Connect to Server
smb://xx.xx.xx.xx

You can use this to decide if the problem is caused by AFP or not (non-AFP issue will also affect Samba connection)

recommend using Samba rather than AFP because it’s more stable with QNAP NAS

.

As the “AFP” connection between the mac and the storage failed suddenly So I cannot access the storage as “afp:///” any more

You can solved thi issue by deleting the “.AppleDB” file from the shared folder.

.

II – Files From My Qnap File Server Magically Disappear When Viewing Them İn The Finder

If you got this problem;

Its Machintosh Problem.. just kill com.apple.iconServicesAgent… if you look in activity monitor and kill this process it is likely that your files will reappear.

.

If this doesnt work;

1 – Change smb version on Qnap (microsoft networking -> advance -> smb version)

qnap_smb3

.

2 – Disabled the AFP all together on the NAS device and reconnected the shares with SMB

.

And connect with smb;

  1. Choose “Go” > “Connect to Server

  4. Select the “Multimedia” folder and click “OK”.

  5. The folder is mounted.

.

III – How To Clean .AppleDB/ Files

Disable AFqP in WebGUI
/etc/init.d/atalk.sh stop

Remove the following folders from each share folder :
.AppleDB/
.DS_Store
._.DS_Store
.apdisk

/etc/init.d/atalk.sh start
Enable AFP in WebGUI

.
