Firmware 6.10.5 Warning

I never had any problem with PLEX as that was installed as a normal .DEB file.  What I had issue with was with my DOCKER Apps I have running.  So to use Docker apps, you need Docker CLI app running.  It stopped working with 6.10.5.  In turn that cause my Docker apps to stop working.

 

There is a cure to this. Download the Kernal Plus app from Netgear.  It's also in the apps area.  Docker CLI will once again work.  Along with all my Docker apps.

 

Plex and EMBY are the only apps I have installed the normal App way.   When Tautulli updated to version 2.7.4, it required an upgrade to Python 3.  So that was going to open up a whole new can of worms.  So I backed up the Database and put it in a safe place, and then I installed the Docker version of Tautulli and restored the Data back which is 2 differnt files.  All was good.  It gets everything it needs incuding Python 3.  Really making it a snap.  Doing other DOCKER apps, it's not all that hard to install.  Much, Much, much simpler to install apps on a readnas that are not in the Netgear app store.  It really opens things up to all kinds of apps.  My Docker apps auto bootup on their own.  It is really so much simpler then trying to SSH into a drive and trying to install apps the normal way.  You end up mangling your NAS.   

 

You still have to SSH into your NAS, but you're using DOCKER to do everything.  I can install a Docker app pretty quickly now.  The one Negative is apps can't be updated withen the app because of the way Docker works.  So that can be a little bit of a Hassle.  But it's not bad.

 

If you didn't know, Tautulli is a great Database program for PLEX.  It tells you all kinds of Data.  Has Graphs, etc.  So I really know what is going on wiht PLEX.  So all is good.  PLEX always worked fine like I said.  If I ran PLEX as a DOCKER app, I'd have had the same issue with PLEX.  

 

Here's a Link to the Tautulli Docker app.  Look under Docker CLI for your settings you need.  Once you figure it out, It's not hard at all.  I have all my Docker app Settings in a basic text file. I just cut out the one I need for whatever Docker app and paste it into my SSH window at the right point.

 

As a Example, here is my Docker CLI Settings for Tautulli.  All the parameters below that I'm using are listed on that web page.  All Docker apps are pretty simular.  So instead of having to have an App setup for the specific hardware you have.  Like a .DEB file that works on a ReadyNAS and either the Intel or ARM version, you use DOCKER that pretty much works on anything and grabs the software version needed, Intel or Arm, and anything it needs.  It's basically Sandboxed.  I think better than running a Virtual Machine which requires a lot more work and resource heavy.    Docker support these days is really a must have!!!!  It took me a little bit to figure out, but now I'm up and running with it.  So many apps these days have a Docker version ready to go.  It'll run on a ReadyNAS, or a QNAP, or whatever other NAS out there that also supports DOCKER.

 

docker run -d \
  --name=tautulli \
  -e PUID=1001 \
  -e PGID=1001 \
  -e TZ=America/Los_Angeles \
  -p 8181:8181 \
  -v /home/docker/tautulli/config:/config \
  --restart unless-stopped \

  ghcr.io/linuxserver/tautulli

This actually isn't a "bug".  Any time there is a kernel change, you'll need to update the kernel extensions that Docker requires.  The release notes for 6.10.5 specifically said that the kernel was updated in it, so we knew that those extensions needed to be updated also.
