  1. For SickBeard, I bit the bullet, Backed up the var folder first of the existing SickBeard installation and uninstalled the package and re-installed it. This worked, in that at least the package would install, but then fails on a timezone update ;(

  3. Hi All, I'm having issues with Transmission and Sickbeard (Sickrage) following a DSM upgrade. I came from an old DSM version 5.2, and read that with DSM6.x permissions were changing to groups sc-download as an example. The existing applications (Transmission and Sickbeard/sickrage) would not start unless I upgraded. so the Transmission app via the synocommunity versions, however there are now permissioning issues since then. Further reading here: Anyone have any suggestions please ? I would like to try and retain the partial downloads if at all possible within Transmission. As for Sickbeard / Sickrage - This won't install - what am I missing please ? Thanks in advance
  4. Hi All, Having read the guide - Tutorial: Install/Migrate DSM 5.2 to 6.1.x (Jun's loader) - Tutorials and Guides - XPEnology Community I decided to update my old DSM installation was on 5.2 and mainly used as a Plex server. I needed to update as my Roku update the Plex client and this needed a newer plex Server version which I couldn't install due to the DSM version I was on. Everything all worked OK with the upgrade and I'm now on DSM 6.1.7. I updated Plex and that is all working as expected (including on the Roku plex client). Sickbeard I need an updated version - I saw people make reference to this version - SiCKRAGE Synology DSM6 Repository but doesn't seem to allow me to save the spk file when I click on it, it loads the contents of the file rather than downloading. Having checked the here - How to install on a Synology via Packages - Guides and HowTo's - SiCKRAGE Forums and noted the pre-req for Pyhton 3.1 (so this is installed as well as 2.7.18-25), but that only mentions a Fresh install and not an upgrade to an existing instance. So I went to just update the package in Synology Package centre. My current Installed Version is 20180629-7 Newest Version is 20200804-8 Clicking on upgrade, I noted this made mention of a change to permissions and sc-download would be used instead. It also noted that "The package upgrade will try to set the correct permissions on your folders. If you get permission errors with transmission manually set Read/Write Permissions using File Station. clicking Next and then Apply It immediately comes back with a "Failed to update "Sickbeard Custom" I seem to recall that Sickrage split into 2 dev paths ?? My original install would have been from the synocommunity package prby 5 -6 years ago now. Anyone got any nuggets of information they can share please ?? or even a link to the package and I can try a manual installation. TRANSMISSION I then checked Transmission and Sickrage (both were showing as stopped), trying to run them it failed. I already had the synocommity package URL but it wasn't showing any packages, Checked this page "Invalid Location" error when trying to add SynoCommunity Repo - Nam Vu Personal Site (very useful) to get the link updated. Now I have options for upgrades for Pythion, Git, Transmission, Sickrage Installed the update from Transmission (now running 3.00-20. I noted this made mention of a change to permissions and sc-transmission would be used instead. It also noted that "The package upgrade will try to set the correct permissions on your folders. If you get permission errors with transmission manually set Read/Write Permissions using File Station. NP I though, all updated and upon starting Transmission, some of the previous partial downloads (ones in sub folders - MyTVshow epidode 6) were all reporting as No data found! Ensure your drives are connected or use "Set Location". To re-download, remove the torrent and re-add it. Any partial torrent that was just an individual file (example - myfile.mkv.part) seemed OK I even added a new torrent (complete series as this would be a folder) and when it started it looked OK, but then failed (same error message as above). I checked the settings.json to ensure the correct paths were still listed (they were) so incomplete downloads would go to /downloads/transmission/incomplete/ Checked File Station, for the permissions of an existing sub folder (MyTVshow epidode 6) and noticed the sc-transmission user was not listed. I added this user and restarted Transmission, but no difference. My Downloads folder structure is: /downloads/transmission/downloaded/ /downloads/transmission/incoming/ /downloads/transmission/incomplete/... I went about adding sc-transmission to the top level and replicating changes down giving it read/write access. Restarted Transmission again and now I have made it worse in that ever file reports back as No data found! Ensure your drives are connected or use "Set Location". To re-download, remove the torrent and re-add it. I was surprised at this as, as I thought adding Read / write to every sub folder for the sc-transmission user would resolve the issue. Checking an individual file (I've now resorted to putty, I can see the file permissions are all borked. The user rights are set to sc-transmission, however the group rights are still as the legacy account "transmission" drwxrwxrwx+ 2 sc-transmission transmission 4096 Oct 19 13:21 - Individual file drwxrwxrwx+ 3 sc-transmission transmission 4096 May 30 2018 - Sub Folder Rather than me making matters worse, but I think i'm going to have to run a chown -R sc-transmission:sc-transmission ./* from the /downloads folder Has anyone else been through the upgrade of Transmission client and had a successful result afterwards ?
  5. Anyone, ?? 180 views, is this the wrong place to ask for Packages assistance ??
  6. Hi, I assume you have at least 1 hard drive in the system ?? As to complete the setup of XPEnology it needs to write the OS to the HDD(s) Also after the G8 eventually boots and loads the initial setup from the USB stick, what appears on the screen ?? I used a web browser and went to http://find.synology.com to connect to the new XPEnology server and complete the install (you will need to DL the relevant file first and then browse to it from the machine used to connect to it from the browser
  7. Hi all, I currently use FreeNas on another Microserver, and am setting up a friends Microserver with XPEnology as he is familar with the web admin from his synology days. I have installed the Base XPEnology on a USB stick and then the XPENology SW onto the single HDD in his machine atm (I was expecting this all to boot from the USB stick like FreeNAS, obviously not). I have setup a couple of Source repositories for packages for him and successfully installed, GIT, Couchpotato, Headphones, Sickbeard, Transmission and Plex media server. All appear to work OK (although the desktop shortcut for plex uses the wrong port (easily remeded by changing the URL, but annoying nmone the less) Upon trying to add a new TV series into sickbeard it reports back 'Unable to create the folder /volume1/downloads/transmission/download/hannibal, can't add the show Logging in to Sickbeard I log in as "admin" and I have checked all the folder permissions and owners using the inbuily file manager and I can see that Admin is the owner of the and has full access to the downloads folder (Check a second time using permissions inspector), I followed down the tree and checked the owner and permissions for 'transmisison' and the download folder and again "admin" is the owner and it has Read\Write access to all folders and sub folders. I then created a new user "autobot" and added it into the users group through the Control Panel application and subsequently ensured the 'users group' had the relevant folder\file permissions. I have then read that the installed applications now all need to be stopped and config files edited to get them to start as another user (autobot as an example). However is there a simple way of finding out why the folder permissions I see using the file station app dont appear to be correct ?? I was expecting Sickrage to create the relevant sub folder etc I only have access from my ipad to the web admin console as my friends laptop is currently out of action, so terminal access is a little tricky atm) His ultimate aim is to have sickbeard control his TV Series collection and then have Plex Media Server available so his TV can connect directly to it using his Smart TV Plex application. I assume there needs to be 'another' app to install yet to move the files out of the /volume1/downloads/transmission folder to his /volume1/media/tv and then have the Plex Media Server look at this folder for its library contents. appreciate this has prby been covered a dozen or so times already but searching through the results left me with more questions than answers, hence the new post
