Worked this way too:

Thanks for your quick reply. I'm aware of the log file entries and scripting is not a problem, I just thought I could solve it in a different, elegant way.

You have to download it from http://vaemendis.net/ubooquity/static2/download and also have to have Java 8 and nohup available. If running on QNAP you may also use the Linux script provided on the same page (you might need to adapt it a little bit).

I'd replace the jar file only. I'm invoking it with 'nohup java -jar Ubooquity.jar -port 2202 -webadmin &' from a shell script ran by cron


I'm still using 1.9.1, did not try the 1.10.0.

If you log in to the QNAP NAS as admin (e.g. via ssh) you may check the path by entering to the directory where your eBooks are and do a 'df -k .'. The last column will show you where it's mounted, something like:


[/share/Multimedia/eBooks] # df -k .

Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0 1921316624 1315122544 605669792 68% /share/MD0_DATA
[/share/Multimedia/eBooks] #

Traversing this path to your eBook directory will give you the path to be used in ubooquity, in my case:

/share/MD0_DATA/Multimedia/eBooks


Hope this helped.

I had the same issue on an instance installed on QNAP NAS. Found the solution while googling on this issue: you have to specify the real path to the directory, not the one that has symlinks.

e.g. instead of specifying /share/eBooks you'll have to specify /share/MD0_DATA/eBooks (this is system specific, so adjust it as needed). Restart the ubooquity server process and you're done.


BTW, thanks for the great app.
