MusicIP on x86 Synology

[Morbeas]

Ok, give me a little time to test this out and I'll let you know.

Did I mention thank you?

[Morbeas]

Do you do anything special when you create the musicip user on the Syno or do you just accept the default values?

[Arvoreen]

To be honest I created it on the command line, but thought it would be easier to create it on the GUI.
I added this line to /etc/groups

musicip:x:1022:

where 1022 was not used in the file before

and to /etc/passwd I added this line:

musicip:x:1022:1022:MusicIP:/usr/local/MusicIP/:/bin/ash

where the first 1022 stands for the user id number and the second 1022 for the group id number from /etc/groups

I used vi as editor.
Don't ask me how to use vi...

But a standard user created on the GUI should also do it.

Or you could use your own user
just change user=musicip
to user=youruser
in the mmserver.sh file

[Morbeas]

Gotcha, thank you.

[Morbeas]

You also have the MIP headless server running on the Syno, right?

[Morbeas]

Ok I'm stuck here:

cd /usr/local/etc/rc.d
(now you need to copy the file mmserver.sh to this destination)
cp /volume1/home/username/mmserver.sh .

Where and how do I copy the mmserver.sh file from my laptop to the Syno?

[Morbeas]

Ok I got it but now I'm stuck at:

if you do now a

./mmserver.sh start
the MusicIP server should start without the need of a reboot.


When I run this command I get:

Synology> ./mmserver.sh start
-ash: ./mmserver.sh: not found

Even though I can do a "dir" command and see that the mmserver.sh file is right there.

[Morbeas]

One more thing. On my Synology (DS1511+), the path is /volume1/homes/username/mmserver.sh , whereas you posted yours as "home".

Edit: Not sure if it makes a difference but I'm doing all this while logged in as "root". Just FYI.

[Arvoreen]

Yes it's the Headless Server I have running.

Seems that in the script the first line there is a space to much
should be

#!/bin/sh

and not

#! /bin/sh

the file mmserver.sh
needs to be in /usr/local/etc/rc.d

so:

cd /usr/local/etc/rc.d
cp /volume1/homes/username/mmserver.sh .
chown root:root mmserver.sh
chmod 755 mmserver.sh
