haze Posted January 8, 2015 Share #1 Posted January 8, 2015 I have tried two versions of DSM 5.0: 4493 and 4528. Neither will allow me to start the Mac File Service (AFP). Considering one of the reasons for running XPEnology was for Time Machine backups. When I click on enable Mac File Service and then apply . . . I get a pop up that says Operation Failed. that is it. No error code. I reboot, reinstall, and same error. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haze Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share #2 Posted January 8, 2015 I remembered that I had the same issue when I set my dad's 2 Disk Synology up over the summer. I couldn't get AFP to start, After a couple of hours of searching I found an obscure post that fixed it. I had to turn some random thing off in DSM, that didn't seem related at all, turn on AFP, an then turn back on the thing I turned. For the life of me I can't remember what that was. If I find it again, I'll post it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haze Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share #3 Posted February 15, 2015 Still no luck. Anybody else running OSX? Are you able to get the AFP file service to start with Xpenology? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiderben25 Posted February 15, 2015 Share #4 Posted February 15, 2015 No problem here (DSM 5.1). Try apfd in a SSH session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
