Dokuwiki
How do I update dokuwiki on my ReadyNAS? Every time I click on any dokuwiki link including relating to the numerous update messages, Safari on my Mac takes me to a Dokuwiki internet page and if I do...

What you need to do is:
- Go to the Admin interface of Dokuwiki
- Click on the "Extension manager" entry
The either
- In the extension manager switch to the "Search and Install" tab
- Search for "DokuWiki upgrade plugin"
Or:
- In the extension manager switch to the "Manual install" tab
- Enter the URL https://github.com/splitbrain/dokuwiki-plugin-upgrade/zipball/master in the "Install from URL" box
- Click on "install"
When the installation of the "DokuWiki upgrade" plugin is finished, go back to the "Admin" page. There you now have an entry named "Wiki upgrade" in the "Additional Plugins" section. Click on that and you'll be taken through the upgrade process.

I assume that download is the appropriate .deb file for your ReadyNAS? You can go to the Apps tab in the web admin UI, browse for the .deb file in your downloads folder and upload that.

Er, you've lost me.
I am accessing the ReadyNAS through a Safari browser window on my Macbook Air. When I click on links that connect outside the ReadyNAS dokuwiki app - including those for downloads - I appear (not surprisingly) to be operating outside of the ReadyNAS; so when I download something it downloads to my Mac downloads folder. Clicking on this means every exdecutable action is now taking place on my Mac, and not within the ReadyNAS.
Also, I've checked the downloaded material in my Mac downloads folder and can find no .deb file.
Perhaps you can shed light? Am I doing something basically wrong?

Well, if you want to manually update an app, you first need to download the update to the Mac. Then you need to install that update on the NAS. If you click on the "available apps" button in the web ui, you'll see an "upload" in the upper right corner. You'd click on that.
You do need to make sure you have the correct update - one built for the linux kernel and CPU that the NAS uses. What NAS do you have?
