Hi, that's the same for me.

See error in screenshot below.

I can't see that you have version 0.4.0 installed. The screenshot below shows just version 0.3.1. Also, I can't see any error message in the screenshot.

"accessory": "Synology",

The Synology must be lowercase --> synology

Thanks! the capitalization never seemed to matter before. The errors are:

npm WARN deprecated request@2.88.2: request has been deprecated, see https://github.com/request/request/issues/3142
npm WARN deprecated har-validator@5.1.5: this library is no longer supported
npm WARN deprecated uuid@3.4.0: Please upgrade  to version 7 or higher.  Older versions may use Math.random() in certain circumstances, which is known to be problematic.  See https://v8.dev/blog/math-random for details.

But now it is at least installing.

I still cannot see any error. These are just deprecation warnings during installation that should not have any effect. Did you restart homebridge after installing the latest version of homebridge-synology? After restart entries like this should appear at the log:

[10/14/2021, 7:03:47 AM] [Diskstation] Initializing synology accessory...
[10/14/2021, 7:03:48 AM] [Diskstation] Synology Diskstation finished initializing!

[mbierman]

Yes, it initializes for now. Wouldn't it be best to bring these dependencies up to compatibility before there is a breaking change?

[nobiman]

OK, it initializes, but does not show state or temperature, like v 0.3.1 does. Downgraded to 0.3.1.

Sure. But these are sub dependencies that belong to https://github.com/homeinstalator/syno. Therefore it's not in the scope of this plugin.
