How to install Domoticz on a Synology NAS

[jumbotroll]

Great !
I had indeed to remove also /var/packages/UsbSerialDrivers
Thanks a lot.

I am now trying to see if I can use domoticz with my Aeotec USB stick.
Should it be detected automatically ?

Try to do a dmesg and look if the stick is detected.

Sometimes you have to restart synology or only domoticz, but different solution has worked

Well, I tried the 4.2 package you compiled, without and with the USB serial drivers.
For both, I rebooted the NAS after installation, before to plug the USB stick.

I still have the same error message, and nothing is added to dmesg.

I will install a Windows version of domoticz on my laptop tomorrow and test if the key is working. Maybe I have a hardware problem...

I do not know if it make sense, but once plugged, the USB stick blinks as follow:
blue (1 sec) - off (0.5 sec) - almost white (1 sec) - off (0.5 sec) - red (1 sec) - off (0.5 sec) - ...

I installed Domoticz on a recent Windows 7.
Then ran domoticz.
Then plugged the stick.
The Aeotec GEN5 USB stick is still not recognized.

I can see this window for long:

and finnaly I had the message 'no driver found".

Before to return the ley to seller, can you confirm that it should be detected automatically? Should I do something I missed?

I also have the blinking on my Z-stick Gen5, so i think this is normal.
I don't use Windows, so I tested to install domoticz on my Windows 10 in parallels and z-stick Gen5 working ok
It is detected as COM3

I did not install any drivers, but you can download drivers here:

Yeah !
Windows 8 and 10 does not need any additional driver.
But Windows 7 does.

So I installed this driver, and I could finally install the stick on Windows.
Domoticz can now see it !
Thanks

Well, it is not such a good news, it means I miss something on my Synology...

Even if I do not have the needed kernel module, I should see a new message in dmesg when plugging in the stick. Right?
I did not find the "lspci" command on my DSM-4.2. Is there an equivalent command?

[jumbotroll]

On my DS712+ Z-Stick Gen5 using cdc-acm driver.
cdc_acm 5-1:1.0: ttyACM1: USB ACM device.
I have compiled domoticz_88f6281-4.3_2.0.3780-7.spk for you to test including cdc-acm driver.

Thanks again
I uninstalled the older one and installed this one.
I didn't know if I should keep the serial drivers, so I kept them.
It was still not recognized.
I uninstalled the serial drivers with no more success.
Here is the output of dmesg when plugging in the stick (without serial drivers here):

I'm out of ideas why this does not work on your NAS .
Do you use USB Hub ?
If so, test without USB Hub .

I do not use USB hub.
There is only a brand new 10m USB cable between the NAS and the key.
I tried without it at the beginning, but my last attempts were made with it. Maybe can I try again without this cable.

After some readings, it seems that I should see a ttyACMx in the port list when I select OpenZwave USB.
I understand that the last package you provided includes USB ACM driver, but the package is compiled for DSM-4.3. Can't it be a problem?
Isn't there some other logs I may gather to understand what happens?

[jumbotroll]

There may be conflict if you use both UsbSerialDrivers and domoticz package with drivers .
Delete both packages and restart NAS .
Then install only this package including cdc-acm driver :domoticz_88f6281-4.2_2.0.3798-7.spk http://jadahl.dscloud.me/sspks/packages ... 3798-7.spk


In the info center on NAS should also see the devices attached to NAS.
USBDevice - Sigma Design, Inc. is my z-stick.
FT232 USB-Serial. is my RFXCOM
HL-340 is my RFLink

OK, i have uninstalled, rebooted, installed this new one, and rebooted (never know...).
I have to wait to be home to unplug and plug the stick and test. I do not have remote access to domoticz yet.
However I have checked my information center, and I can see the Sigma Design USB device. I believe...

[greuh]

I did the same without the stick plugged.
Uninstall package
reboot
install the new package (domoticz_88f6281-4.2_2.0.3798-7.spk)
reboot
start domoticz
Plug the zstick

Still no /dev/ttyAMC device in the "serial port" list.
Only /dev/ttyUSB0 to /dev/ttyUSB7. None of them is working.

Something prevents the stick from being viewed by domoticz

[greuh]

I also uninstalled any other (non-related) packages on my Synology (sabnzbd, sab2, perl, python).
Reinstalled domoticz as above, but still the same result.
The Stick is seen by the DSM, but not by Domoticz

Sorry, but I have No idea why this is not working on your NAS.
Can you check if you have: /usr/local/domoticz/rules.d
60-synocommunity.domoticz.rules

#rules for USB ACM serial devices
KERNEL=="ttyACM*", ACTION=="add", MODE="0666"
KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", ACTION=="add", MODE="0666"

Yes, I have exactly that content in /usr/local/domoticz/rules.d/60-synocommunity.domoticz.rules

As a last try, I will give a try with the package from synocommunity, which is quite old. We will see if there is any difference...

[jumbotroll]

The old package from synocommunity does not support OpenZWave.
Can you check if you have this modules:
/lib/modules/usbserial.ko and
/lib/modules/ftdi_sio.ko

If you run lsmod
The last line should show something like this:
usbcore 176292 17 ch341,snd_usb_hiface,snd_usb_audio,snd_usbmidi_lib,cdc_acm,pl2303,cp210x,ftdi_sio,usbserial,usbhid,usblp,usb_storage,etxhci_hcd,xhci_hcd,ehci_pci,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd

I have the modules installed, but I am not sure if my usbscore module is used by the expected modules:

ftdi_sio.ko
usbserial.ko

edit:
I also add the usbserial module usage:

I think you are missing cdc_acm.
Try this: insmod /lib/modules/cdc-acm.ko
