yes, here it goes the ZYPKGS file content:
Package: MetaRepositoryVersion: 20181001zypkg015Description: MetaRepository for zypkgs.Depends: Size: 184320Installed-Size: 491520Architecture: armZy-Model: allIsBuiltin: NFilename: MetaRepository_20181001_arm_015.zpkgMD5SUM: 62687de76004443c3f498ae0b4cbc154
There are no other files/folders in \admin\zy-pkgs\ , I've erased everything, i don't have a MetaRepository folder0 -
OK, that ZYPKGS file is expected, that is the file downloaded from diskstation.eu.i've put the web_prefix file in \admin\zy-pkgs folder and deleted the rest of the files. Now the ZYPKGS that appears is dated from 2018, but the applications tab is empty.
Applications tab is packages tab, I guess? As far as I remember it shouldn't be empty. It should show all installed packages, together with MetaRepository, as possible install.
I've never seen the "Retrieve List From Internet" greyed out, but I know that could happen on the Medion ST212 (same firmware family, roughly v3.x), and I *think* then the package manager crashed when trying to populate the packages tab.
Which means the internal package database is probably broken. Do you have any packages installed? Do you mind loosing them?
My next attempt would be to remove the web_prefix, rename /i-data/md0/.system/zy-pkgs/zypkg_conf, and reboot the box. The package manager should start over without database. Try to install some stock package (the ssh package is extremely handy), check if a new zypkg_conf is created, and if it looks healthy. Reboot the box to see if the package is still installed, and if everything is OK, try the web_prefix again.

Nop, not at all, as long as my data stays in the HDD everything is fine for me, I'll just need to install the applications again, no problemMijzelf said:I've never seen the "Retrieve List From Internet" greyed out, but I know that could happen on the Medion ST212 (same firmware family, roughly v3.x), and I *think* then the package manager crashed when trying to populate the packages tab.Which means the internal package database is probably broken.

I think its all done, at least for me it was a real struggle
Thank you so much for guiding me untying this thing up, I would not able to do it alone, I'm really sure about that!
I Have another issue but I'll open another topic for that one. Thank you again!0 -
