Hi guys! Until yesterday everything was working properly, but now Sonarr (and Jackett) doesn't start anymore from my Synology DS213j.
When I try to launch Sonarr by clicking on its icon, a "failed connection" page appears.
If I try to launch it "manually" from the Package Center, Sonarr try to start itself, but then "stopped" appears under "status".
Same thing with Jackett.
Last night I updated Mono, so I imagine that this is the problem.
How can I solve?
I already tried to uninstall/reinstall everything.
Thanks!

Solved following THIS
You have to type sudo -i in order to log as root in the Synology terminal. Now it works :)

Same issue in 212j with DSM 6.x
I try following https://www.reddit.com/r/sonarr/comments/4c7ddp/howto_sonarr_on_synology_dsm_60_workaround/ too.
with MONO_PATH:

MONO_PATH="/var/packages/mono/target/bin/"

The info in /var/packages/nzbdrone/target/var/.config/NzbDrone wants to move to ~/.config/NzbDrone after you update Sonarr. To work around I manually made a nzbdrone user in the UI with the proper permissions and enabled user home service. The goal of the workaround is to make /volume1/homes/nzbdrone/ exist.

This may also explain some issues with people losing configs. However, mine is a new install so I didn't investigate that.

DSM6 compatible version of the package is expected to be released soon. It can already be installed by downloading it from here #3138.
After the official release on SynoCommunity, the package will auto-update from the official release.
