Synology DiskStation

Hi,
I don’t use it anymore on my synology - so I can’t take a look.
But if I remember there was another start_???.sh that you should not touch
Then it works

I’ve added a request over at SynoCommunity for openHAB to be included into their repository.
Hoping someone picks up on this request so we no longer have to go hunting for an installer package.
This would allow for a more user friendly installation process of openHAB onto Synology systems.

I see no difference between my and your implementation:


Can you help me?

Thanks,

Well, as i mentioned before, i added a few operations to the install.sh (But i will keep it private, since there are a few credentials inside)
-> linking picture and log dir to Synologys public/OpenHAB/ Folder
Furthermore: my SSL-Certificate is generated after installation is finished and HABMIN is unzipped to the Directory :smile:
My SSL Port is modified both in the package description and in the Openhab Parameter.

Thats all

For those needing to muck around with low-level Z-Wave details using Open ZWave Control Panel (ozwcp), there is a great Synology package for the Domoticz software that includes ozwcp and the necessary drivers. I’ve found it very handy to switch between running OpenHAB and ozwcp via Domoticz right on my NAS.

Install instructions for Domoticz are here. Once set up, I just use the Synology Package Manager to stop the OpenHAB service and start Domiticz to muck with Z-Wave device settings. When done, I switch back. Ozwcp seems to be much more reliable than using Habmin for changing configuration parameters on my devices.

Hi @All & @cniweb,

I ve a Syno DS213+ (Freescale QorIQ P1022 PPC) and I assume it will not work on my NAS. Right?

Are there any Packages for the DS213+ for the latest OpenHAB 1.7.x ??

Thanks and BR

@sptzdmnc
Thanks for your spk.
I have installed and it seems to run, but I can’t find the configurations and addons folders to upload my config to.
I have looked in public\OpenHAB\configurations but it’s empty.
I copied my config from my current OH installation and restarted but it didn’t find the sitemap.
Any suggestions as to where I need to place the config files?
Thanks again!

I am having the same issues as marklavercombe. Thanks for your help !

It’s probably something very simple, but I can’t seem to find the right folder to put all the cfg stuff.
Any advice would be gratefully received! :smile:

Hi,
When the last package.spk want to install 1.7.1 on my Synology 213 (5.2), I have this message: “Invalid Format”.
I do not understand!!!

1.6.1 The package is the latest version that I can install a manual.

How to install the latest version OpenHab (1.7.1), and then how to do a version upgrade?

Thank you

If you have installed a previous version of Openhab on your Synology it is easy to upgrade.
Download from the website the latest version and unpack this.
Download WINSCP (Windows) and make an ssh connection to your Synology. Make sure you have switched on the ssh service on your Synology.

Choose your Synology IP and port 22. Username = root and your admin password of your Synology.
When you have a connection search for the directory @appstore. You can find this in your main directory.

Find in the @appstore the map OpenHAB. Make from the openHAB directory a backup from your configfiles (OpenHAB/Configurations).

Now you can copy your downloaded and extracted OpenHAB version to @appstore/OpenHAB.
Make sure you do not delete all the files before copying because you remove the startup script for the Synology.

Restart openhab from the package center on the Synology.

thank you, i’ll try it

I have this working now. The configuration and addon folder is in @appstore/openhab folder. I transferred demo, addons from openhab github. I have habmin working as well by manually transferring habmin to webapps folder and habmin and zwave addons to the @appstore/openhab folder. Just wanted to document that here for future users.

Now the fun (or pain) begins getting openhab to work for me. The demo is absolutely useless and does nothing for me. I know it will be worth the pain !!!

Hiya.
I had a lot of trouble getting Astro binding times and chart timescales working, despite setting the timezone within the server etc.
Eventually I discovered that I needed to add -Duser.timezone=*Country*/*City* to the PROGRAM="java... line in the start_runtime.sh script in /volume1/@appstore/OpenHAB.
Now I have the correct timings for Sunrise etc from Astro binding, as well as the correct times on the chart legends.
Hope this helps anyone else seeing this problem!

Hey Christian,

I’m struggling with the installation of OpenHAB on my Synology NAS (DS213).

I’ve seen that others have the same problem that I have (https://github.com/cniweb/openhab-syno-spk/issues/2), do you know what’s causing this?

It would be great if you could help here… thank you very much in advance!
