You'll want to use one of the "*.systemd" scripts provided in PlexPy's "init-scripts" directory, since ReadyNAS uses systemd as its init system.  Take note of the "Installation Notes" and "Configuration Notes" sections in the service file.

Hello,

 

Thank you for the quick reply !

I followed all the instruction on the init-scripts, created the folders, I installed plexpy in the /home/admin/plexpy folder.

But still when I type "systemctl start plexpy.service" I get the error message: "Job failed. See system journal and 'systemctl status' for details."

I can't locate the "system journal".

 

Would you have any idea on this issue ?

 

Thank you!
