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.

Hello,

Since the last update, I cannot sync with my Diskstation, from my Manjaro latest version.

I am having SSL errors, and even unable to login if I check not to verify the certificates. Am I the only one ? If not, somebody has a solution ?

Here is what I have :

2022-11-01T18:43:41 ( 2729:14272) [ERROR] protocol-ui.cpp(299): ProDSQuerySSLSignature: code: -201, reason: channel error while converting SSL channel.

2022-11-01T18:43:41 ( 2729:14272) [ERROR] pc-error-handler.cpp(571): Get signature fail. not in quickconnect mode. Failed to pass sign auth.

2022-11-01T18:44:28 ( 2729:72512) [ERROR] protocol-ui.cpp(669): ProDSGetListViewBySession: channel error while converting SSL channel

Anyway, thank you for your work !

Regards, ZEBofx

Here is a patch if it can help:

I got a strange problem that synology-driver does not sync any file from server to my local folder. I installed synology-driver with no error no warning, I start it and looks pretty well -- everything seems normal, the software prompt me enter the login information and then proceed to some config steps. After that, the system tray menu told me it's "up-to-date" but with a blank "recently changed" list and my local folder is still empty. Does anybody know what the problem is? Thanks!

Updated PKGBUILD: https://ghostbin.com/F7E6u

Hey @rjhilgefort, did you have any problems with the published AUR? It should get you the 3.0.1 release.

@jibsaramnim Thank you! This worked for me! I removed my 2.x.x installation and then followed your instructions to get the 3.x.x installed on my ArcoLinux machine. Thanks!

Hey folks, I'm sorry for the delays. I switched jobs and my main computer is not my Arch but a Mac now. But I promise take a look at this this evening after work so the update is out for you.

For anyone who has already upgraded their NAS to 7.0 and is looking get a working Synology drive again, until the package is updated you might want to upgrade ahead of time. Here's the PKGBUILD I used to get to the as of this writing recent-most release, v3.0.1:

prepare() {
    cd "$srcdir"
    mkdir -p data
    ar x synology-drive-*
    xz -d data.tar.xz
    tar xf data.tar --directory data
}

package() {
    cp -r "$srcdir/data/opt" "$pkgdir/opt"
    cp -r "$srcdir/data/usr" "$pkgdir/usr"
}

(Save as PKGBUILD in temporary folder and run makepkg -si to install.)

Now that DSM 7 has been released, I tested the latest 3.0.1-12667 against DSM 6.2 and it's working as expected with older versions.
