Hey Stephane - found an issue with PlexPY & 4.3

If the /etc/Timezone directory exists, PlexPY will not start properly. This is with the latest 1.4.10 x64 version.

Deleting the /etc/Timezone folder fixes the problem and it will start normally.

note related to the qpkg... guess it is OS

must be reported to PlexPy dev over Github issue

Hi Stephanie,

PlexPy is working great for me, so thanks for all your work to get this running.

However, I'm now trying to run python notification scripts and get the following error:
import requests
ImportError: No module named requests

I thought that requests wasn't installed, so I ssh'd into my NAS and ran pip install requests, and this tells me Requirements already satisfied.

So is this something missing from the qpkg or have I done something wrong?

not sure request is already embedded and not sure it required a gcc compiler

did you try :

/opt/PlexPy/bin/pip install requests

Just out of curiosity, I occasionally used to get a little popup on the bottom right of the window after logging into Plexpy referencing an update, but have not seen this occur since updating to the 64-bit version on the first post in this thread. I'm running this on a TS-453PRO with QTS beta 4.3, which changed the file-system to 64-bit.

Hello,

I have the same issue as @UnSafeHairBall

I get "connection refused" when I try to start PlexPy, Piwigo or PlexRequests. But I have no problem with Sonarr,Radarr and Plex running... weird...

Would anyone have any idea ?

Thanks!!!

Is there a way to install Plexpy in my TS 431, which is ARM based?

Sonarr & Radarr have dependency on Mono & Plex doesn't for either. Likely Python related issue. Try starting PlexPy manually via SSH and see what error's are thrown.

When I try to run PlexPy manually I get the following output:

Code: Select all

[/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/plexpy/plexpy] # python PlexPy.py

    import symbol
ImportError: No module named symbol
Edit: I've tried both ver. of 1.4.10 and I get the same error.
Edit #2: I removed and reinstalled QPython2 (2.7.13.0) and restarted the NAS, but continue to get the same error.

Thanks for the consideration!

Hi,
I´ve recently updated to QTS 4.3.3.0154 Stable.

With PlexPy installed from the repo since version 4.2.X... not remember which one exactly... after upgrade the firmeware I´m not able to access anymore to PlexPy in any way. This is the output from command line:

Code: Select all

[/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/PlexPy] # ./PlexPy.sh start
./PlexPy.sh: line 41: /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/PlexPy/bin/ln: No such file or directory
./PlexPy.sh: line 43: /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/PlexPy/bin/python: No such file or directory
I´ve tried running with these two versions of python:
QPython2 V2.7.13.0 from the QNAP Club Repo
Python 2.7.12 from the Official QNAP Repo

But without success... problem is that I would like use PlexPy from the Repo to be notified when a new update could be available and also mantain my data from PlexPy folder.

Can someone help me with this?
