How-to: Install plexWatch/Web on a Synology NAS

Start by logging into your DSM and opening the Control Panel. Inside of the control panel is an icon for "Web Services". Click on this.

Step 1

Web Services:

Web Applications Tab:

  • ENABLE - Web Station

Step 2

PHP Tab:

  • ENABLE - PHP configuration option register_globals.
  • ENABLE - PHP cache
  • ENABLE - display_errors to display PHP error message (this is useful for debugging any problems)
  • ENABLE - PHP safe_mode_exec_dir access limiation

Step 3

At this point you need to decide how plexWatch/Web will access your plexWatch database. There are a variety of ways to do this and every network is different. Here is one example.

  • Create a new shared folder (Control Panel/Shared Folder) called "plexWatch"
  • Navigate back to Web Services/PHP Tab:
  • ENABLE - Customize PHP open_basedir
  • Add the following to the end of the open_basedir config line without the quotes: :/volume1/plexWatch
