OK, here goes:

1) Login using an SSH client, such as Putty on Windows. Enter the same userID and password that you use to login to the QNAP admin console.

2) Type the command:
ps

3) Somewhere near the bottom of the output, you'll see a line like this:
19396 admin 29924 S /usr/local/jre/bin/java -jar ../lib/minimserver.jar --noconsole --nohup
The first number on this line (19396) is the process ID (PID) for MinimServer. In the rest of these instructions, we'll use this number to represent the PID. You need to change this number to the actual number you see on your QNAP.

4) If you don't see a line like this, it mean the MinimServer process has crashed. You can find the MinimServer PID by typing the command:
cat /tmp/minimserver.pid
Skip steps 5 and 6 and go straight to step 7.

5) Type the command:
kill -quit 19396

6) You won't see any output from the 'kill' command, but it should have written output to the file /tmp/minimserver-out-19396.log.

7) Now it's time to copy MinimServer's log files to another computer. These files are:
/share/Public/minimserver.log
/tmp/minimserver-out-19396.log
Copying the first of these should be easy, because it's visible in the Public share of the QNAP. For the second, you can copy it to the Public share by typing the command:
cp -p /tmp/minimserver-out-19396.log /share/Public
This will copy the minimserver-out-19396.log file to the /share/Public directory of the QNAP, which will make it visible in the Public share.

8) Type the command:
exit
to close the SSH console window.

9) Zip the minimserver.log and minimserver-out-19396.log files and attach them here.

Many thanks!
