I haven't tested with other apps like Numbers so can't say if affects them too, but the Mac in general can access the paths via Finder and I've been working with this setup for years.
#SYNOLOGY ISSUE INSTALLPKG NOT SAME OWNER UPDATE#
Synology NAS DSM 6.2.3-25426 Update 3 (latest update) I can't see any errors being logged on the NAS. If I save the document to my (iCloud) desktop, I can then move it manually into the share via Finder, but then it can't be autosaved if I open it in Pages again. I can create, modify and delete files from the command line in the same path. I've checked permissions on every folder in the path from the root of the share to the document destination and my own userid had read/write permission according to Finder. If I open a document or begin a new one and then try to save it or duplicate it to a shared folder on my Synology NAS I get an error stating "The document could not be saved". I've seen some discussion about similar issues, but so far haven't found a working solution.

I hope this little guide will help those of you who want to install IPKG on Synology Nas.I've got an annoying issue with Pages. You should see the entry for “ /opt/bin” there. To check whether it worked, enter the command: Note that this will not automatically update your PATH for the current session. Then save and close the file ( CTRL + “O”, then Enter, then CTRL + “X”). PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/syno/sbin:/usr/syno/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/binĪt the end of this string, just append “ :/opt/bin“ (don’t forget the colon). To do that, I used the “ nano” editor, but I had to install it first. To make the change permanent, you need to edit the “ /etc/profile“. However, this would only add the directory to PATH for the current session. You can add the directory to the PATH variable using the following command:

However, the directory has not yet been added to the PATH variable, so to use it you would need to use the full path “ /opt/bin/ipkg“. The executables files are located in “ /opt/bin/“. IPKG is now installed on your Synology NAS device. Follow the instructions in the image below: There is also a GUI Version if you’d prefer, called “ iPKGui“, also from QTip. Find and install “ Easy Bootstrap Installer” from QTip. On the Location field type in – Follow the instructions in the image below.Īfter clicking OK, you should see a new “ Community” tab in the package center on the left. Open the Synology Package Center and at the top right of the page, click on “ Settings“.

To be clear, the installation process should be the same for other Synology Disk Stations and unfold without any problem. I just wanted to share how I installed IPKG on my Synology DS718+ following a Synology Community post by user can also install it on different Synology devices by following the instructions below. Many projects which formerly used IPKG have adopted the IPKG fork opkg as a replacement.

The development for this project has been discontinued. It was used in the Unslung operating system for the Linksys NSLU2 (Optware), in OpenWrt, Openmoko, webOS, Gumstix, the iPAQ, QNAP NAS appliances and elsewhere as of early 2017 it can still be used for Synology NAS DSM appliances and in the LuneOS operating system (although opkg is an increasingly common replacement).Īs usual, for package management systems, ipkg’s ipkg command-line utility allows for the installation of new packages, the upgrading or removal of existing packages, querying package repositories for available packages, and listing already installed packages.

As you well know, IPKG, or the Itsy Package Management System, is a lightweight package management system designed for embedded devices and it resembles Linux Debian’s dpkg.
