yes of course! This is my new script

echo "Ubooquity task manager script"
#nom du fichier enregistrant le pid de ubooquity au lancement
PID_FILE=/volume1/comics/.Ubooquity2/scripts/ubooquity.pid
# installation settings
JAVA_BIN=/var/packages/Java8/target/j2sdk-image/bin/java
PCKG_BIN=/var/packages/Ubooquity/Ubooquity.jar
WORK_DIR=/volume1/comics/.Ubooquity2
# app settings
PORT=2202
ADMINPORT=2203
MEM=512m

# This ensures that ubooquity reads special characters properly
#export LC_ALL=fr_FR.utf8
export LANG=fr_FR.utf8

#Command line for launching ubooquity
echo "Starting the Ubooquity server"
$JAVA_BIN -jar $PCKG_BIN --adminport $ADMINPORT --libraryport $PORT --workdir $WORK_DIR --remoteadmin --headless & UBOOQUITY_PID=$!
echo $UBOOQUITY_PID > $PID_FILE
echo "The server has been started with pid $UBOOQUITY_PID ."
exit 0

I can't tell you the problem: it's not the font issue, I4ve had the same issue for months and it did not prevent ubooquity from working

I can only advise you to look at the post detailing how to get ubooquity working on a synology. I would advise you to double-check the parameter "execdir: /volume1/Livres/Ubooquity" you put at the end of you command line: maybe something is wrong (check that ubooquity has read/write privileges maybe?)

Hello,

I've done a little digging about the planned task feature, and I've decided to go with it instead of continuing with upstart scripts

Here is what I've done:

1. create a task in "planned tasks" with 2 options
   1. launch on boot
   2. use a script ubooquity.sh file from one of my shared folder
2. create a file ubooquity.sh in designated shared folder

I also want to thank you for ubooquity: it really is doing a fine job. If you could just open-source your code, you would make my dau: there is a ton of nice features we could add to ubooquity that would make it THE reference of book servers, but you are limited in time (especially now since I understand you've had a girl?). If we could contribute to your code that would be awesome

I want to add a comment on the best way to run ubooquity on Synology: lately Synology has added the possibility to create and run scripts from within the GUI: we can define scripts and tell the NAS to run them at run time, before shut down, or periodically... this would be a perfect place to tell the NAS to run ubooquity at run time

This new feature would avoid ssh the NAS, manipulate the file system and we have to vi the conf file, with all the complexity it has for non-linux users: it's a lot simpler to create the script directly from that GUI.

My guess is that copying this code in the panel Synology has created for us would work, but I haven't tested this since I'm happy with how my script is working; but I believe it would be better to manage the script directly from the GUI, it might be safer too....

If someone feels like testing this new method for running ubooquity and let us know how it goes, it would be neat :-)

hi Tom,

how many pages do you have on your library? maybe there is only 2 different pages to load? my settings are: 24 comics per page, and i have more than 50 pages

also can you try something? on your raspberry, can you reduce the number of file allowed to something below 1024, and then browse your library for many pages.... 

Hi,

I've downloaded the latest release and installed it on my system. Globally, it's working as before: I like the new look and feel of the admin interface, scanning of my (rather large) collection went without a single issue; so I have to give a thumb up for the new release

on the down side, I didn't see much improvment on this particular subject (nor on other features I was hopping to see in release 2.0 -like a way for users to modify their password- why would you not open-source ubooquity? you've built a cool piece of software, it could gain momentum with 3rd party apps and reader coming in, but 1 year between 2 releases, it's way too slow: you should let us contribute)

Anyway, back to the topic: I've tested today, and the file leak is still there, everthing goes smooth but once I reach 1024 file handles, it breaks down

Ok, I finally tested this again and am finally able to see the content

Your explanation were correct: I didn't pay enough attention to this remark

(note the double backslashes and the absence of ".h2.db" extension)

this and the fact that h2 opens an empty database instead of telling me there is nothing got me confused

I have the same problem: every restart of ubooquity I get these messages. I don't know what is teh /config folder you are mentionning: to my point of view, it all goes in "work_dir" directory which is a parameter I use when launching ubooquity. If this is the folder you are mentioning, then I do have write permissions

if your system has 256Mb of memory, you must set a limit lower than this or you will get memory errors. i have a ds212 with same memory and have set the limit to 128mb for ubooquity (so that m'y synology can still operate even with ubooquity scanning in the bzckground)
