can you try following for testing. Reboot your system and wait for 10 Minutes. Afterwards try to restart NFS service

systemctl restart nfs-kernel-server

As well can you share following:

lsmod

Hi @Joulinar - Thanks for your reply!
Here's the output of lsmod - will follow your instructions in a minute.

Can you check for the module:

modinfo nfsd
modprobe nfsd

sewe75 · 2023-07-26T14:10:52Z

Good point - the module is missing

modinfo: ERROR: Module nfsd not found.
modprobe: FATAL: Module nfsd not found in directory /lib/modules/6.3.11

Joulinar · 2023-07-26T14:12:11Z

@MichaIng could it be that the module is missing on soquartz kernel?

@sewe75

- Quartz64 | Enabled support for the NFS kernel server. Many thanks to @sewe75 for reporting this missing feature: #6502

MichaIng · 2023-07-26T14:25:23Z

Seems so. ... Ahh, the kernel config is not set at all, it never was for our Quartz64 builds. That neither me nor anyone else ever recognised this 😄. I don't think it ever was enabled by default. Here we go: b54ba04

New package builds are running: https://github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/actions/runs/5670021036
The kernel will be updated automatically on next DietPi update this Saturday night.

sewe75 · 2023-07-26T14:45:30Z

That was fast - thanks a lot! @MichaIng @Joulinar
Will check after the next update.

sewe75 · 2023-07-30T10:13:57Z

Just ran dietpi-upgrade -> 8.20.1 and can confirm the NFS server works now.

Disclaimer: The logo is just the terminal background - I am not related to them in any way.

MichaIng · 2023-07-30T15:49:59Z

Many thanks for testing and feedback 🙂.
