I've followed the instructions for both the automated wget install and uploading it and manually installing it as per the instructions found here: https://nzbget.net/installation-on-linux but they both fail due to the expired letsecrypt cert (cacert.pem)
Have you tried installing the fix for the letsencrypt issue here: https://rnxtras.com/addons/letsencryptfix

I have not.. i'm not comfortable creating an account for something like that.
I think i was able to get it working. again, i'm a total bozo when it comes to linux/cli so. i'm definitely taking a crash course on it now... 🐵
i didn't have anything on the nas, so i ended up doing a factory reset to start fresh.. then i just kept going through the instructions and realized the installer was doing more of the work than i realized. i also didn't know how to start the nzbget service via the commandline.. which now i do.
next thing will be to get it to auto-start as a daemon so i don't have to keep starting it via ssh just to connect to the webgui..
i'd definitely like to run an update that would fix all the cert issues though.
btw, how does yours handle the downloads of the nzbs and merging, etc....? my biggest concern right now is how this will handle the workload once i get it configured and it starts downloading..
Thanks for your insight!

No account needed to download and install that fix - it is freely available.
The site is WhoCares_ - long time ReadyNAS owner, and someone who has made many posts here.

I don't use that app, so my reply was only directed to your letsencrypt issue.

I'll double-check..
I'm aware it's free, however when i tried to get it, it directed me to a page where, despite being free, i had to at least create an account..
but i'll try again, maybe i missed something.
Thanks for the advice!

yup, i just tried it again..
it's free, however they want an email address and an account to be created, then they send a receipt..
it won't allow me to download it unless i fill in my name and email address blah blah blah...
i'm not doing that.
I'd hope there are instructions somewhere out there that will walk a person through updating the certs.
Thanks for your help!

If you had read the description of the package you'd see it's a lot more complicated than updating the certs:
"This add-on fixes the problem by installing an updated version of the ca-certificates package (backported from the latest Debian release “bullseye”) and updated curl- and openssl- libraries built with support for the new certificate chains."
So unless you have a development environment installed on your NAS (or elsewhere) and know how to do backporting, you're not going to do it yourself. I can pretty much guarantee nobody will ever create a "how to for dummies" on such a complex fix.
I'm a long time customer of RNXtras and have never received any SPAM from the site or anything that I believe came form them sharing my email address. The only think I ever received, besides payment receipts, were forum notifications from when he ran his own. Not even notices of updates to aps I purchased. So, I believe you are being overly cautious with regard to not signing up for the site while failing to see the benefit of getting his fix

I bit the bullet, downloaded the fix, and installed it as per the instructions..
It doesn't seem to have worked, however i'm such a novice that it could be something else.
I'm running OS 6.10.7, i uploaded the file as admin, restarted the NAS.
I installed the latest stable version of nzbget which comes with the correct certs and in an install such as this, should be straight forward without any cert issues. However the tls validation fails and the only way i can get it work is if i disable cert validation in the app.
Any other ideas?
thanks!
