Hi,

I don't have the /etc/modules-load.d/ folder. Do I have to create it myself?

YES,
IT MUST BE CREATED MANUALLY

i am not on dsm7 so i do not have first hand experience

Hello,

I updated my Synology DS918+ to DSM Version: 7.1-42661 Update 1 a few weeks ago. A few days ago I had to update the container for Conbee 2 (Deconz) and realized that the "ttyUSB0" driver is now missing.
Now when I try to follow the instructions on these pages, docker-compose breaks with this error message "ERROR: for domoticz Cannot start the service Domoticz: Error collecting device information while adding custom device "/dev/ttyUSB0": no such file or directory ERROR: for domoticz cannot start the service directory Errors occurred starting up the project. : initial status 1" off.

This is my docker compose:
Where else can I get the "ttyUSB0" driver to correct the error?

Thanks very much.

only it looks like http://www.jadahl.com/iperf-arp-scan/DSM_7.0/ is down right now, but maybe you can find the files somewhere else also.

That is exactly my problem. So far I hadn't been able to find the files anywhere. I was hoping that there would be someone here who would make them available to me.

It looks like you can get them with waybackmachine:

Is this what you are looking for..., (see attachment)

Thank you for the quick help. But somehow I still don't understand it all. There are no files behind the link from @pyxis (DSM_7) and the drivers from @JackD are already installed for me. What I'm missing is the ttyUSB0 file in the /dev directory - but it has to be there if docker-compose is started via Portainer.

Note:

Isn't it possible for someone from Synology DS918 users to send me the "ttyUSB0" file as an attachment?

Look here:

Sorry, I am running DSM 6.2 not DSM 7 and on a DS1520+ so can not help you there.
And I don't think you can just copy ttyUSB- from one system to a other. But I am not a expert.
Do you use a external USB hub perhaps, some of them do not work with Synology, try a other one

Hopefully someone else can help you more with your problem.

With this note you have given me a very valuable tip, namely I use an external USB hub. Meanwhile, I also found an update from Deconz-Docker:

https://github.com/deconz-community/deconz-docker

There you will find the note that instead of "ttyUSB0" you can alternatively use "ttyACM0". This file is in my "/dev" directory and it solved my problem.

Thanks again for your support!

What docker container should I use? Stable or latest?

It is up to you Latest means latest build so mostly the Beta version.
For first time user I would say Stable is the preferred version..

I don't consider myself a first time user, but I did notice the stable release doesn't get updates. As to beta, this isn't shown in the latest releases?

What is expected from Domoticz releases is mentioned here: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Releases
Stable will be update once or twice a year. Beta could be updated multiple times a day, depends on the development. But there is also a big risk that the Beta will fail. So only use Beta if you want to be on top of the first developments and can risk a crash occasionally. So for normal users not preferred.

Ok, there’s stable, beta and then there’s latest: https://registry.hub.docker.com/layers/ ... xt=explore

See the explanation here:
https://hub.docker.com/r/domoticz/domoticz

And simple latest is not mentioned as it is the latest build (stable or beta) and should not be used....

Thanks, I’m sticking with stable and hope for faster releases.

Hi, I'm on DSM7 and ran into some problems I'd like to fix.

Is there a step-by-step tutorial already for DSM7 in which is explained how to change the settings (like paths) so that it runs smoothly without "save errors" etc. ? Or is the opening message still the way to go?

My Domoticz is running, but I have the errors when saving a dzVents/Lua script. I added some folders manually:

volume1/docker/domoticz/backups
volume1/docker/domoticz/scripts
volume1/docker/domoticz/scripts/dzvents
volume1/docker/domoticz/scripts/logrotate
volume1/docker/domoticz/scripts/templates (this directory has to include the templates from container /opt/domoticz/scripts/templates)
volume1/docker/domoticz/scripts/dzvents/data
volume1/docker/domoticz/scripts/dzvents/dumps
volume1/docker/domoticz/scripts/dzvents/generated_scripts
volume1/docker/domoticz/scripts/dzvents/scripts

but don't know how to proceed from here.

As you can see, the settings/paths are not the way they should be, although it works for now.

Thanks, I've seen this, but don't know how to change the current setup. That's why I was wondering if there is a how-to for DSM7 with the most recent variables/paths. It's for a setup at my father-in-law's Synology and I don't want to break the current setup.
