    hi @Jorden, yes, the log says:
    Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)
    https://56cefa9a8081735d022345600.homey.athom.com/api/manager/drivers/pair/close?_=1464587169519
    Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)
     (i have changed the above numbers a little bit for security purposes)
    Also I must mention that I am at work, and so I'm trying to install the surveillance station from outside my home network.
    8.0.30 is not required?
  • jordenjorden Member
    Someone in this thread mentioned it worked on 0.8.29 so I changed the required version number (I am unable to test it myself).

    Are you sure of the IP-address, and are you sure that the username that you supply does not require 2 factor authentication?
    Sadly I cannot see the logfiles, I might have to spend some time in better error reporting :expressionless: 
  • JonJon Member
    @jorden
    Yes, I kinda 'hate' 2-factor auth. so I haven't enabled that.
    The IP-address is 100% correct, I am sure of that.
    Could the reason be that I'm outside of my home network?

    No, I think that should work. I am also outside of the network my NAS is in and was able to add it without a problem. Just as long as the Homey is in the same network as your NAS.

    Does it run on port 5000 as is default? 

    I just tested it from a clean install and had no problems, so it might be the settings somehow.

    (PS: If you go to Settings -> System, how big does it show the Synology app? Here it shows as 3.6 MB)
  • JonJon Member
    @jorden
    Here too, 3,6 MB
    I have searched, but could you specify where to check which port my Synology is running on?

  • jordenjorden Member

    If you access the NAS in your browser, you will go to :5000">http://<localip>:5000 (or in your case, possibly a different port?)

    I have not made it possible to change the port in the Homey application but if that is the case, I will add that in an update.

    Also please let me know which version of Diskstation Manager (DSM) you run.

    Okay @Jorden, it appears indeed that it's the port issue.
    When I change the port to 5000 it works.
    It would be great if you can adjust your app to support custom ports. When do you think this may be added?
  • jordenjorden Member
    Well, as tomorrow I won't be around, I will try to make it by thursday. Then the app will have to be re-approved before it gets updated in the app store, which might take a few days.

    Great to see that that's the only problem :)
  • JonJon Member
    That would be great!
    So far yes that's the only problem. But I haven't done much further testing I must say.
    Great work so far! (and compliments for being so responsive!)
  • djeskodjesko Member
    Will do some testing later today , but the setup is done !  

    Can we use port 465 on mail ? 


  • jordenjorden Member
    Yeah, on mail I actually already built the ability to set a custom port  :#
  • @HomeyGeek@HomeyGeek Member
    Great idea...

    It's CTRL-SHIFT-J for Chrome on Windows console log
  • RocodamelsheRocodamelshe Member
    Very cool. Great job!
    I'll wait til the next version comes up.
  • posthokposthok Member
    I'm very happy with this app!!!
    But it seems it's not sending any snapshot by mail. I Have used gmail smtp but when a snapshot is triggert in a flow it keeps busy and nothing else is happening. Am i doing something wrong?
    settings: username: name@gmail.com 
                     smtp: smtp.gmail.com
                     port: 587
                     sender: name@gmail.com
  • RobertLijkendijkRobertLijkendijk Member
    Do you have 2factor authentication configured for your gmail account?? I think that's the reason why I couldn't get it to work with my gmail address.... I've setup a smtp server on the Synology to work around this ;-)
  • posthokposthok Member
    no there is no 2factor authentication configured.

    Just today I ran into an issue with OL2007 not connecting to gmail-imap because there's a (new?) setting "allow apps with lower security-setting" which wasn't on...
     
  • PeaoPeao Member
    Installing worked fine, it found my NAS and my Foscam. But the commands seem to get stuck somewhere. When I "test" my flow the little grey wheel in the top left corner keeps spinning.

  • jordenjorden Member
    I have tried Gmail as well and got a security message about a 'log attempt blocked'. But that might be because I used port 25 and no tls.
  • posthokposthok Member
    Is there anyone who got this working. And yes, what mail settings do you use.
  • posthokposthok Member
    Is is normal after returning to the mail form in surveillance settings the former input is gone?
  • RobertLijkendijkRobertLijkendijk Member
    edited April 2016
    @posthok ; I experienced the same issue, was gone after rebooting Homey. Can't tell if it's a bug in the app or with Homeys firmware....

    Edit: I configured a mail server on my Synology using the SMTP from my ISP. Within the Surveillance Station App for Homey I configured the Synology as smtp host.

    Its working now.
    But I've got the same problem with gmail adress. Got a mail message about "blocked attempt", too.
  • posthokposthok Member
    Stil no message received and 2factor authentication is off.
    Is'nt it possible to make an app to play music(playlist) from audiostation to the yamaha receiver. That would be great!

    I am having the same question; is there any free webmail that works with this?
  • jordenjorden Member
    Try to use the SMTP of your internet provider?

    I am a webhoster myself, so I just used my own SMTP server, which worked. I couldn't get GMail to work on the first try so I stopped trying there.
  • posthokposthok Member
    the provider setting don't Work either.
  • jordenjorden Member
    I have submitted version 1.0.1 to the app store for approval. If you cannot wait, install it through https://github.com/jordenc/com.synology.surveillance via the commandline.

    It features the ability to set a custom port for your NAS.
    Also shows an error if it was unable to connect because of IP / port problems. I still have to work on better error reporting, as well as some other stuff.
