I fixed it on Wayland. For anyone else having issues, all I needed to do was run 'set QT_QPA_PLATFORM xcb' in the terminal. Make sure you have wayland qt5 installed with this command 'yay -S qt5-wayland' first. Then start up synology drive and it should work. If you don't want to do all of this every time you log in, I found that editing the synology-drive-autostart.desktop file "exec=" line to this "env QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb; synology-drive start" makes it start up at log in. This file can be found at ~/.config/autostart. You will want admin privileges to edit the file (using sudo and an editor like gedit). Another update, sometimes it still wouldn't start at login with these changes, so I duplicated the auto start file and dropped it in this folder ~/.config/autostart-scripts and that seems to be working consistently.

@DamianUntapped

Which error is displayed - please start with synology-drive start in the terminal.

Won't open on Gnome 48, deleting /home/user/.SynologyDrive/ doesn't work (doesn't seem to exist anymore). Tried uninstalling/reinstalling, no luck.

Uninstaling and reinstalling didn't help. The solution was to remove 

/home/user/.SynologyDrive/

Thanks!

schinfo commented on 2024-11-24 11:45 (UTC)

I've corrected the dependencies - please test it.

@sk-os

I can't understand the error. I've been using Synology-Drive for years and have never had any problems. It's best to uninstall it completely and delete all config-files and config-directories.

Hey everyone, added warnem2 as co-maintainer. I had some issues with my linux laptop recently and apparently this pkgbuild have been outdated for a long time. Hope this bring more speedy updates to you all.

While using KDE Plasma 5 and Wayland, I only get these errors now. Any idea how this can be fixed? I think it's just since 1 or 2 days and it was working fine before. Reinstall didn't fix it and Synology also didn't release a newer version.

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in ""

Edit: Okay, figured this out. Obviously SynologyDrive requires execute permissions on the user's home drive and won't work otherwise. ;-) That's a bit nasty. Had my /home partition mounted with "noexec".
