Current Situation

My plug-in recently stopped updating the HomeKit accessories. Running on Synology.

I first downgraded the plugin (to 1.92.10) to see if that was the issue. When there was no changed I deleted the plugin, deleted the accessories from HomeKit then reinstalled. After reinstalling i see no links or codes in the terminal logs to re-setup my AppleTVs.

I suspected that part of the issue may be Python and OpenSSL. I do have Python 3.11.10-9 installed via the Synology Package Center, yet HomeBridge is reporting 3.8.15 (in the Additional Context below). HomeBridge is reporting OpenSSL 1.1.1 even though the current version of Synology DSM states it includes OpenSSL 3.

Also, when it was previously running I was getting frequent Avahi errors; I do not know it that is pertinent.

I went ahead and installed Entware on the Synology as recommended on the Homebridge Github page and ran a Python install to 3.11. HomeBridge is still reporting 3.8.

I may be getting in over my head here.

I am not familiar with Synology. Make sure that a compatible python executable is in the PATH in the environment that homebridge is running in.

If you are using docker you can just update to the latest version of the image.

I went ahead and ripped out the Synology Homebridge and set it up again as a Portainer container. It loads up perfectly. I'm having some issues setting my apple TVs back up (one is giving me the standard pairing URL and the other is telling me to enter the homekit code manually but the Apple Home app isn't seeing the accessory) but I will dig through the issues and see if there's a fix.

It does appear that utilizing the plugin via a direct Synology instance doesn't work well as it is difficult to manage the Node.js and Python versions in Synology. Might be easier to just put womething in the readme that it's not a recommended configuration.

I'm also getting this error, I've installed python 3.11 as per documentation .. I've deleted python 3.8 as well.. but on synology I'm still getting this error. Please help. Also I've installed the package from the DSM store and not as docker container.
