HI

I have licenced Serviio 2.1 on my DS1515+ Synology SHA Cluster. I just upgraded the cluster to DMS 7.0 and it work fine. The only problem I have is Serviio 2.1 does not run anymore, it is stopped.

What is the procedure t make it work on DMS 7.0

Regards

I'll keep an eye on this thread, as I'm holding off the DSM7 upgrade till i'm sure all my packages work.

If you are capable, look into Docker on Serviio, some have reported that it allows Serviio to work under that environment.

There is Docker or you could run a Virtual Machine on the NAS and then use the Linux or Windows version of Serviio.

HI

Build Virtual mAchIne to run Serviio is a lot of time spent to support a software that does not look like it will ever going to be fix...

I would expect Serviio to generate a solution or kill it definitively for DMS 7.0.

This way no time would wasted waiting for Serviio to generate a new version.

This is NOT a Serviio problem...…. this is a permissions problem within Synology's 7.0 architecture. This doesn't affect the windows or Linux builds and would require a fork in user permissions because Serviio can no longer run as a ROOT user on Synology. The scripts that patters created for running this on a Synology NAS literally just pulls the latest version from the website and installs it according to the Synology installer methodology.

So either Patters comes up with a way to redirect all ROOT user requests to a privileged user status or Serviio retools the entire user interface structure.....neither of these solutions are ideal...…you can thank SYNOLOGY for this mess.....end of story.
