Synology DS2413+, Webui ok but can't login

Post by Shiki »

Hi,

I would like to try the Synology package for Syncovery but for some reason i can't login into the Web Ui

I'm using the user name:default with the password:pass and the login fail with a message stating:

"User id or Password does not match"

I have a Synology DS2413+ with DSM version 6.2.4 25556 update 2 and i'm using the Intel 9.39f x86_x64 package



Cordially, Shiki.

Hello,
maybe a different password is still in the database from on older installation.

You can reset the password with an SSH shell command line (for example, log in with PuTTY), by entering:

Code: Select all

SyncoveryCL SET /WEBSERVER=localhost /WEBUSER=username /WEBPASS=password
Where username and password can be chosen freely. However due to command line constraints, the password should contain only ASCII characters and no special characters such as ! or " etc. unless you can properly escape them in a command line string.

The change should take effect immediately even without restarting the service.

Note: customers who have already upgraded to DSM 7 need to enter this command first:

Code: Select all

cd /var/packages/Syncovery/target/usr/bin
And then do:

Code: Select all

./SyncoveryCL SET /WEBSERVER=localhost /WEBUSER=username /WEBPASS=password

Stopping the service and launching it again make no difference

Hello,
yes, you can surely delete all traces.

First, uninstall the regular way, from the Synology DSM App Center.

Then, look for and delete any traces, similar to this:

sudo rm /etc/SyncoveryCL.conf
sudo rm -R /root/.Syncovery
sudo rm -R /volume1/@appstore/Syncovery
sudo rm -R /volume1/.Syncovery
sudo rm -R /volume1/@appstore/.Syncovery

to verify / find more:
sudo find / -name Syncovery
sudo find / -name .Syncovery
sudo find / -name Syncovery.cfg

Removing all the traces did the trick.

I can now do some tests and eventually upgrade my Windows license to a combo one :D

Thank you.
