Failed to Disable: Precheck Failed

NOLAHItch · February 25, 2026, 7:01pm

When attempting to disable a drive in ZimaOS on my ZimaCube I get a popup error in red that says Failed to Disable: Precheck Failed. How do I fix this and disable the drive.

Please share a screenshot, thank you.

I click the little stop sign where is says Disable and the message Failed to disable: Precheck failed pops up in the upper right hand corner of the screen for a few seconds then disappears.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

We have found and fixed this problem, which will be included in the next version, and the following is a manual solution

sudo -i
sqlite3 /var/lib/casaos/files.db 'ALTER TABLE trash_files ADD COLUMN user_id INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0;'
systemctl restart icewhale-files
