Madsonic Server 6.x Synology-DSM 6.x NAS Plugin

Reinstalling gives "failed to install Madsonic". Guess i have to drop this nice piece of software for Synology, since nobody is checking this forum anymore?

I saw a few posts prior to this that 1 of Synology's updates breaks the installation of this application but I would like to know if this is still true. I just tried to install this software to try it out since it looks to meet my needs but right off the bat the installer wont even let me install it and gives an error message. I followed the instructions and went over the posts here to make sure I setup everything the way it should be but once I get to the install part it fails. I attached a pic of the error message, would anyone be able to help with this? I have installed the original program subsonic already to test this application out as well to see which one I prefer more. So far Subsonic installed on Synology without any of the issues I am having with madsonic. Any help would be greatly appreciated since I am pretty sure I would prefer the additional features this software provides over the original.

Thank you

Well i cant downgrade. But even with the latest update DSM 6.1.1-15101 Update 3 which has been released this week it isnt working. The fact subsonic is working better, is because they got alot more ppl working on it. So far i know Madevil is the only person which works on Madsonic. He doesnt always have time.

Still hope he sees some time to Madsonic working again for Synology, because i cant use it anymore. So i removed it. Using good old fashion Foobar2000 atm.

Yeah, ill check back from time to time. I appreciate all the effort he puts into this and seeing how many systems he has this on and that pretty much all the work is done by just 1 guy is pretty impressive. The Synology installer for subsonic was recently created by someone else that helped out otherwise they wouldn't have anything at all either and even that was only setup a few months ago, prior to that was only a manual copy of all the files and hope you followed everything correctly otherwise you were going to have problems.

Hi there,

the Madsonic 6.3.9480 Synology installer has improved database handling, new search engine, proxy support, local network interface fix and other bug fixes

viewtopic.php?f=44&t=2229

if you get failed to install Madsonic maybe old Madsonic installation fragments block the installation, so try to cleanup before new installation:

remove any existing Madsonic package via web-interface, connect via ssh daemon and remove those folders if exist

Code: Select all

/usr/syno/synoman/webman/3rdparty/Madsonic
/volume1/@appstore/Madsonic
/tmp/madsonic
{PUBLIC_FOLDER}/Madsonic/


reboot and retry installation with latest DSM installer

best regards

I never had Madsonic installed, it just gives failed to install with the latest update of synology it seems. I see you referenced using the 6.3 version of madsonic but I am not a supporter yet, I wanted to test the software out and see if it works which you will only allow version 6.2 for that. If you fixed 6.3 to work with synology could you patch the older version as well? I am not going to purchase the software before knowing if its what I am looking for.

Thank you

I'm a supporter and In also got an error with the latest 6.3 release installation

Hope to be able to install soon because I paid to be supporter ... .

Well 6.3 is only for early adopter. So 6.2 doesnt work and is broken. 6.3 we cant use because its for Early Adopter.

Gives us something which work please.
