Application twonky cannot be installed
Hi, I am trying to reinstall a ReadyNAS 516, and am unable to install the Twonky Media Server. I downgraded the OS to ReadyNASOS-6.10.8-x86_64, and also added the changes specified in this thread: ...
Did you perform apt-get update after making the changes? Did you get any error messages when you did so?
NOTE: Do not perform apt-get upgrade.
Looking at this combination
libstdc++6 is already the newest version (4.9.2-10+deb8u2). twonky : Depends: lib32stdc++6 (>= 4.4.5~) but it is not going to be installedThe system already has a newer version of the library than twonky needs.
I think the problem is more likely in the twonky install. It's a really old app ( June 2013)
Granted, although Twonky is running fine on another ReadyNAS 628x with OS 6.10.10. I would like to get it installed on this ReadyNAS 516.
Thanks
I was able to get it to install by the following (I think):
1. Downgrading firmware to 6.10.2
2. SFTP in and update the sources.list and apt.conf, modified for this revision
3. SSH in and use: apt-get update
4. Install Twonky
After this, I could see that it installed some lib32gcc libraries during the Twonky install, and the app functions correctly so far.
Thanks!
Great. It should be safe to upgrade to 6.10.9 (or .10 if you prefer).
If you use antivirus, you definitely need to upgrade firmware again, as there were several fixes to that after 6.10.2.
Hi,
I've upgraded only to 6.10.9 in case I need other apps in the future. I'm currently syncing the upgraded drive capacity, and then it's on to backing up the other NAS onto this one. I'm not running the antivirus at present, as I don't want it to delete utilities I sometimes need, that might be considered "unwanted programs".
Thanks!
