Hi guys, 

I'm an Asustor user, and I'm trying to make the last version of Ubooquity work on my NAS for a few days. I have followed this tutorial. I'm not very good in SSH, and it took me a while to understand. I  finally changed a bit the contents of the tutorial to better match what I was doing.

Here is my start-stop.sh script :

#!/bin/sh

# ums files
UBOOQUITY_DIR=/volume1/home/admin/Ubooquity
UBOOQUITY_PID=$(ps ax | grep java | grep Ubooquity | awk '{ print $1 }')

case $1 in

start)
echo "Starting Ubooquity..."
java -Xmx256m -jar $UBOOQUITY_DIR/Ubooquity.jar -headless -remoteadmin -adminport 8079 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null/ &
;;

stop)
echo "Killing Ubooquity..."
kill $UBOOQUITY_PID
;;

reload)
echo "Relaod Ubooquity..."
kill $UBOOQUITY_PID
sleep 3
java -Xmx256m -jar $UBOOQUITY_DIR/Ubooquity.jar -headless -remoteadmin -adminport 8079 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null/ &
sleep 3
;;

info)
echo "Checking for Ubooquity PID..."
echo $UBOOQUITY_PID
;;

*)
echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|reload|info}"
exit 1
;;

esac
exit 0

As you can see, Ubooquity is now installed in /volume1/home/admin/Ubooquity. I changed the command line because Ubooquity doesn't seem to launch with the command given in the tutorial, and the access rights by using chmod. I also made the links with the /usr/local/etc/init.d folder

Ubooquity works, but I lose my configuration (users, shared folders etc...) every time my NAS restarts. It's as if I were starting from scratch. I have the feeling that each restart erases my configuration. However the file preferences.json is there.

Can you please help me with this ? I don't understand why Ubooquity behaves like this and it's driving me crazy ;-)

Hi guys,

Nice to see that this project is not dead and still a fully functional lightweight chunky server - certainly compared to my heavily customized ComicStreamer !

Two quick ones:

(1) Please allow entry of UNC / Custom paths from the admin webui, could not found it and had to shutdown the server to add those manually in the preferences.json 

(2) Please put a restart server directly in the admin webui, currently you have to get back to the local UI if you started it or fuddle with the config to make that happen

H ey guys,

I have a Synology and the worst luck with Ubooquity. Every time I get it to work it works fine for a few days until my Server restarts. Everytime it restarts I try to "sudo start ubooquity" which that command works fine until the server restarts. After the restart it says "start: unknown job: ubooquity"

Is it possible my ubooquity is being cleared by the server?

hi I'm running the new 2v and I've noticed its using 300mb of memory. Is this right or is it a bug?

I've had a running instance of 2.0 for some time. I stopped the server today, downloaded the 2.1 update, and created a new folder. When I tried to launch with:

java -jar Ubooquity.jar

I get the following error below. Note also I tried going back to my old folder and launch that and I'm getting the same error. You also linked to this file:

http://vaemendis.net/ubooquity/downloads/special/SimpletofMars/Ubooquity.jar

in another thread. Same error. 

Also, I am unable to double-click the file. It just launches the Archiver. I right-clicked the file to try open-with java but didn't see it as an option, so I did:

apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk

I can now right-click an select Open With JRE but it just spins and does nothing. Running the 'java -jar' command also gives the same error. Any ideas? 

Here's the error:

hi

I installed the new 2.10 version to find there is no option to add my own folder location expect for a mapped drive.

Is there going to be any changes to this in the future, as I store all my comics on my nas I would prefer not to map a drive.

Hi, i made a fresh install of a ubuntuu 16 server.

I install ubooquity 2.02 but when i add a path for scanning i got this :

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment

On the previous server i haven't got any problems

here my command line

java -jar Ubooquity.jar --headless

Hi,

I lost my admin password for webadmin.

There is a way to recovert it ?

BEst Regards,

Hi - Is the number of comics per folder present in the OPDS feed? I'm asking this because for example it could be very useful to have an icon in Seth's app showing this information on each folder.

Thanks.

When I try to access the admin page, I get: 

HTTP ERROR 500

Problem accessing /admin. Reason:

Could not find matching provider (wrong URL)

I setup a new install of 2.0.2 on a headless Ubuntu 17.x VM in Google Cloud. On that server I'm using nginx to access pages remotely.

Here are the relevant entries in nginx:

# Ubooquity
 location /ubooquity {
auth_basic off;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:2202;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forward-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
 }
#
# Ubooquity Admin
 location /admin {
auth_basic off;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:2203;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forward-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
 }

I'm using the following command to start Ubooquity:

 sudo java -jar /opt/ubooquity/Ubooquity.jar -remoteadmin -headless

So if I go to https://my.domain/ubooquity I get the "You aren't authorized" whatever whatever stuff, which makes sense because I haven't created any users yet. So the library port seems to be working fine. However, when I go to https://my.domain/admin I get the error described at the top of the page. What am I doing wrong?
