Update for Tiny Tiny RSS on Synology

Tiny Tiny RSS Support
1

The current version of Tiny Tiny RSS for Synology NAS is from 2016 (v20160102-10):
https : // synocommunity . com / package / tt-rss
It would be great if someone could update this app considering
https : // github . com / SynoCommunity / spksrc / issues / 2217
https : // www . synology-forum . de / showthread . html?96698-Einrichtung-von-Tiny-Tiny-RSS / page2

Ask at the appropriate location, e.g. synocommunity and not in this forum?
Most likely the author of this package will not be an active member of this community, if it was not updated for this long.

all right. Thank you for your prompt reply.

Just to let you know that publishing it in webstation as a standard website with a MariaDB instance is working quite well.
However, I didn’t manage to create a daemon, but going through CRON for the feeds update.

if your synology has docker support, there’s a variety of premade packages you could use

6

Also, if your Synology supports the Virtual Machine Manager package, you can setup a virtual machine and use the git version.

I’m currently using latest TT-RSS version on my own Synology NAS
I didn’t have used a prebuilt package though, just followed the install notes here: https://git.tt-rss.org/fox/tt-rss/wiki/InstallationNotes

I’ve written a quick blog post on setting up ttrss on Synology Docker if anyone’s interested

I have set up Tiny Tiny RSS using the following instructions.
How can I make an update?
Or is it useful to switch to the version under Docker?

  1. Install PHP 7.2, MariaDB 10, phpMyAdmin in the package center
  2. in Webstation activate PHP 7.2 and the following things:
    curl, iconv, intl, mysqli, pdo_mysql
  3. Start MariaDB 10 and activate TCP/IP connection
  4. connect with SSH and enter the following commands:
    /usr/local/mariadb10/bin/mysql -u root -p
    create database ttrss;
    use mysql;
    quit
  5. start phpMyAdmin and create new user ttrss with global rights
  6. connect with SSH as superuser and enter the following commands:
    git clone https://tt-rss.org/git/tt-rss.git /var/services/web/tt-rss
    cd /volume1/web/tt-rss/ && chmod -R 777 cache feed-icons lock
  7. Open http://NAS_URL/tt-rss/install/ and make the following settings:
    Database type: MySQL

    define('PHP_EXECUTABLE', '/usr/bin/php');
    to
    define('PHP_EXECUTABLE', '/usr/local/bin/php72');
  9. Create tt-rss-update.sh with the content:
    /usr/local/bin/php72 /volume1/web/tt-rss/update.php --feeds --quite
  10. Setup script as scheduled task on Synology NAS

What would happen if you pasted that git error message into Google?

13

I have had to do the installation again like this and am currently failing at point 7: http://NAS_URL/tt-rss/install/ The error message 404 The page you are looking for cannot be found appears. What is the error here?

14

The installer was removed. The content in the wiki and this forum should get you going.

Yes

Which version do I need to take from here Docker if I want to use Tiny Tiny RSS on my Synology NAS? It would be nice if the MariaDB10 database I already have installed could be used.

EDIT: Does anyone know how I can change the instructions Update for Tiny Tiny RSS on Synology - #10 by update.freak - Support - Tiny Tiny RSS: Community so that the installation succeeds?
On the website Tiny Tiny RSS – Installation Guide it says Docker is recommended. But here Docker there are quite a few available and I am at a loss which one to take.
I unfortunately have almost no experience with Docker and would be very grateful if someone could provide a step by step solution. Currently I also have MariaDb10 installed on my Synology because of Kodi. From there the question is whether one could drive this with the Docker solution or I need a database here in Docker.
As a requirement I still have that Tiny Tiny RSS can be easily updated without losing my articles saved as favorites from RSS.

Have used these instructions: - YouTube

Now I get this message: Please set SELF_URL_PATH to the correct value detected for your server:http://192.168.178.32:7000/tt-rss (you’re using: )
How can I solve this problem?

17

2 months probation. go get spoonfed somewhere else.

18

You must set it in the .env-File.

5 minutes to set it up on a synology nas. :wink:

I use the Tiny Tiny RSS also from synocommuniy, but it always stops in few seconds everytime I start it, how should I figure it out. :face_exhaling:

Since this is not a supported installation you should start asking where you got it from.
