Cannot install Apps on 6.8.0
Any attempt on 3 different ReadyNAS's (just updated to 6.8.0 firmware), to install downloaded App .deb files results in "cannot read property 'childNodes' of undefined" error. Doesn't matter which a...
The problem is not really a bug in readynasos -- the bug lies in that the cacti application that one of you were installing (based on one of the comments in this thread earlier) can't fully install itself. Once you have an app that fails to install fully, it holds up other apps from installing properly. readynasos tries to work around some of those problems (which we have greatly improved). There's a log called install_debpkg.log that says what the problem was with installing the application. That can help debug app installation

Uh, I thought that file was now deprecated in favor of the system journal. See https://community.netgear.com/t5/Community-Add-ons/How-best-to-diagnose-false-positive-app-upgrade-in-logs/m-p/1299377#M5762
journalctl --identifier=fv-app-install
Yeah, folks should be advised to check with the sources of their installed apps prior to upgrading, since it could block you from applying further updates from those developers... until they address this issue. I ran into this briefly with DVBLink. Thankfully they were quick to provide a fixed build.

The install_debpkg.log is a file that is generated when you download the Logs bundle from the UI. Using the journal via journalctl is a backend command. I don't typically advise backend commands. Since you seem to already be familiar with backend commands, You can run apt-get install -yf and it should tell you a bunch of output. Can you copy and paste it into this thread and I can tell you what is going wrong with the installation of your apps?

Your problem stems from the MySQL server not being started.
Try
systemctl start mysql
