Is it possible to run a Xojo Web App on a Synology server? Anybody having experience with that?

My NAS has an ARM processor :frowning:

Thanks anyway.

now that xojo compiles for the raspberry (arm processor) , you should trythe web app on your arm box it may even work !
the above thread is dated before arm xojo…

Didn’t consider that. Thanks! I’ll try it.

Let us know how it turns out :slight_smile:

I have a DS213j I tested an ARM based webapp on.
It returns Error 500 (Internal Server Error)

According to the log files, the “config.cfg” file can not be written to. That file is part of the app, as Xojo compiles it.
I checked the permissions. It says that I can write to it. Even when the permissions are set to 777.

check the containing dir as well

I did.

In the web directory, that is used to store websites, I made a directory “world4”
In that directory is where the world4.cgi and all the accompanying files and folders are stored. All of them have the permissions set to 777.

note: I know 777 shouldn’t be used. But this nas is on my local network. And I only switched the web server on for this test. The server is at this moment not accessible from external networks.

10

the containing dirs are all 777 all the way down from the root to the cfg file ?

any extended attributes on them that might prevent writing ?

11

Yep, all the way down to the root.

I don’t know what you mean with “extended attributes”

12

Unix / Linux support whats called extended attributes on dirs & files
ACL’s

Thanks Norman. I played with these settings in the past. I tried it again.
Additionally I added a so called virtual host and set all the ACL settings as described on the website you mentioned.

Unfortunately, it does not make any difference :frowning:

huh … ok I’m out of ideas

Norman, is this you talking… or one of the dogs? :stuck_out_tongue: (Yeah, I just listened the podcast where you shined in) :wink:
I will continue my search. If I find any solutions I will post them here :slight_smile:
