Installer issues.

[biffiny 0]

Hello,

 

My emby became unresponsive even after restarts so first I tried an update but still no joy.  I removed emby and tried reinstall but I received this error both with standard release and the beta versions.

 

--> App Center App Installation [App Center] Failed to install Emby Server due to data file error.

 

I have tried re downloading the packages and even installing previous version that I know have worked in the past that I still had in my

downloads folder

 

QNAP MODEL TVS-882

 

Packages

 

emby-server-qnap_4.4.2.0_x86_64.qpkg

emby-server-qnap_4.5.0.8_x86_64.qpkg

 

and obviously some previous releases.

 

any help would be appreciated.

 

Biff.

Hi, can you reboot the NAS and try to install again? Thanks.

Hi Luke,

 

*Fixed,  it looks like EMBY removal left some traces in the /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/ folder - I removed them and the installer worked just fine.

 

Cheers,

That's strange. Have you tried uninstalling first? What was the last version you successfully installed?

Yes,  I did an uninstall prior to trying the reinstall.  Latest beta version has installed OK but only after removing the remaining folder from the  /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/
