Plex for NAS326

24

All Replies

  • I'm a bit confused as to how to install PLEX onto the NAS326. I have the metarepository, but unsure what to do now.
  • Nevermind. Figured it out, just needed a reboot.

    Empty the directory \\<NAS>\admin\zypkgs\MetaRepository\ and refresh the package list. If that doesn't work, post the logfiles which are made in that directory.

    The logfile is ZYPKG_INFO.tgz.log. So far I can see that MetaRepository tries to download from http://downloads.zyxel.nas-central.org/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/, which doesn't exist anymore. That should be http://zyxel.diskstation.eu/Users/Mijzelf/zypkg-repo/fw5/ for a fw5 device (editable in the webinterface of MR), but that doesn't explain why ftp://ftp2.zyxel.com/NAS326/zypkg/5.21 also fails.
    The logfile should tell.

    I seem to have a similar problem, about a year ago the meta repo worked perfectly, but I wanted to install plex today and I don't see any packages to install in app center.
    The log file says all the fetching fails, which I don't understand.

    I might have disabled something on the NAS, because I was trying many things (among others to install a proper package manager for the arch on the NAS btw., is it possible to get pacman?) any idea how to fix it?
    When I uninstall the Metarepo app and delete zy-pkgs reloading the app list fails, when I install it again it says download list success but I get the installed apps only. The web-prefix gets always overwritten to http://localhost:59999/ and the list in web ui looks like this:

    # Official repository
    # German mirror
    # German beta server
    # Medion server
    # Mijzelf's repository
    # Local repository
    /i-data/sysvol/admin/MyRepo/ Local

    My guess is that your box has either no DNS or no gateway:

    9: Fetch ftp://ftp2.zyxel.com/NAS326/zypkg/5.21/ZYPKG_INFO.tgz /i-data/sysvol/admin/zy-pkgs/MetaRepository/ftp___ftp2.zyxel.com_NAS326_zypkg_5.21_.tmp failed

    That url exists.

    Hi guys!

    Sorry for reviving an old thread but I believe it's better than starting a new one.

    Can you please let me know which one of the two available packages "*-armv7hf_neon.spk" vs ""*-armv7hf.spk" is the correct one to be installed on NAS326?

    Regards!
