Installing on Readynas OS6 RN524

[gpaolo79]

Hi all,
I am trying to install Domoticz on my Netgeat Readynas RN524 running OS6. I have followed the instructions that I have found online at this address:
https://www.jaqb.gda.pl/pol/Spolecznosc ... n-ReadyNAS
which seems rather straighforward, but something is not working as it should.
I have followed all the steps for the installation with no error, and then create file /lib/systemd/system/domoticz.service

Code: Select all

[Unit]
Description=Domoticz
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/opt/domoticz/domoticz -daemon
KillMode=process
Restart=on-failure

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

and registered for automatic execution

Code: Select all

systemctl enable domoticz
systemctl start domoticz

Result: absolutely nothing happens. I try to connect to my NAS on port 8080 and I get no answer. So I checked the status of the service and I get this:

Code: Select all

root@MY_NAS_NAME:/opt/domoticz# systemctl status domoticz
● domoticz.service - Domoticz

Dec 03 18:11:45 MY_NAS_NAME systemd[1]: domoticz.service: Failed with result 'start-limit-hit'.

Does anyone has any idea of what is going on?
I'm not too expert with linux, so please be patient if it is something obvious

Thanks!

Well, not much luck at the moment, still nothing. I have tried everything I have found online.
I have just found that, if I try to load Domoticz manually, I get this error:

Code: Select all

./domoticz: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

so I have tried to install it following the indication for Debian and it seems that it has been installed correctly:

Code: Select all

but I still get the same error.

Any suggestion?

Well, while I'm still hoping to get some help, I keep trying to find out what's going on...
So it looks like the libssl1.1 is still not installed, I tried to get it in another way but there is a dependency issue:

Code: Select all

Selecting previously unselected package libssl1.1:amd64.
(Reading database ... 24659 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack libssl1.1_1.1.1d-0+deb10u4_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking libssl1.1:amd64 (1.1.1d-0+deb10u4) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libssl1.1:amd64:
 libssl1.1:amd64 depends on libc6 (>= 2.25); however:
  Version of libc6:amd64 on system is 2.19-18+deb8u10.netgear1.

dpkg: error processing package libssl1.1:amd64 (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.19-18+deb8u10.netgear1) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libssl1.1:amd64

So this libc6 package seems to be a specific one for netgear, I have asked on their forum if there is any update, but I doubt it.
I was thinking, the original post about installing Domoticz on Readynas is from 2017. From what I read, there has been some major update of Domoticz this year. I was trying to see if I can find one of the previous versions, like a 4.x or 3.x, but I can't find them. Does anyone know where I could get them please?

[gpaolo79]

Not much interest here for this topic apparently, but for posterity...
It looks like Netgear OS6 does not include some update on libraries needed by Domoticz 2020, in particular I got stuck with the libssl.
I found a page with the older releases ( viewtopic.php?f=6&t=31157&p=250194 look at page 12) . I got the V4.10717, which was the latest stable release I could see, followed the instructions from the first post, and worked straight away.
So, until Netgear doesn't update the OS, V4 is the only way to go on these NAS.

Hi Guys,

anyone know if it is possible to install on readynas 426 with os 6.10.7?

regards
jan

If you can run Docker on your ReadyNAS as it would be the preferred way. It is also the preferred way on a Synology NAS. See for more info the wiki: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Docker

And installation method for Synology as a reference https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Synology

thnx, gonna try that!
