Synology - Duplicati service won't autostart

[JonMikelV]

Hi @netkodrugi, welcome to the forum!

I don’t have a Synology box myself but the only reports I recall about it not auto-starting seem related to DSM updates.

However, they may be related to what you’re seeing - does your experience sound like what @drwtsn32 reported?

Can't connect to DSM started Duplicati after Synology 6.2 update

I have this issue whenever there is a big Synology update. I check the package manager and it usually says Duplicati is NOT running. But if I ssh to the Snynology and “ps ax” I’ll see it running. I kill the process and start it again using the package manager and all is well. (Until the next major update.) I have a feeling it may be a flaw in the Duplicati package design. I don’t have this problem with any other Synology packages.

Oh - and did you do the install on your own or follow a guide (like How to install Duplicati on Synology / DSM)?
