Hi Andrew!
NIce to see that the article is still usefull!, its such a long time ago since I’ve actually fiddled with my synology box. I now have SVN hosting at Dreamhosts – makes more sense in my current circumstances, but the local SVN server at home is still used, and my DS106j is still going strong. Synology really do rock!
Thanks for reading!

Hi Rob,

I’d just like to say a huge thanks for posting these instructions – they’re fantastic!

For anyone wanting to get their Synology SVN Server to start automatically on boot or reboot here’s how I got mine working..

I wasn’t brave enough to edit the /etc/rc file ;o)

1. Log into your Diskstation (telnet or ssh), as ‘root’, and issue the following command:

cp /usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S95sshd.sh /usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S99svnserve.sh

2. then edit the new file with the following command:

nano /usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S99svnserve.sh

3. delete all of the contents of the file (keep pressing Ctrl + K to cut each line), and paste in all of the following:

[from here - not including this line]
#!/bin/sh
# svnserve script for the Synology DiskStation
# inspired by http://rob.runtothehills.org/archives/25
# this script written by Andrew Freemantle (http://www.fatlemon.co.uk)

case “$1″ in

stop)
echo “Stop svnserve…”
killall svnserve > /dev/null 2>&1
;;

start)
# don’t care if svnserve is already running, just kick of another one
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/bin:/opt/sbin
svnserve -d -r /volume1/svn/repository > /dev/null 2>&1 &
echo “Start SSH…”
;;

restart)
$0 stop
sleep 1
$0 start
;;
*)
echo “usage: $0 { start | stop | restart}” >&2
exit 1
;;

esac

Thanks again Bob, and I hope this helps someone else save a couple of hours ;o)

Hi Rob,

I’m having the same error about libuuid.so.1
I have an DS209+
All my packages are up-to-date and I’ve rebooted but to no avail.
Searching on the internet revealed libuuid.so.1 having something to do with the ext2 package.
I think I should not be fiddling with that?
btw I do not have any libuuid.* file on the box.

Hope you can help!

Hugo

@Ling – No problem I’ll add that to my virtual beer list
@cooky – I don’t know why it doesn’t work, I don’t have any other Syno boxes, but the tutorial does say its for the DS106J. If I ever upgrade i’ll look into this, but its kind of difficult to diagnose when i dont have a box, plus i’m not really a unix head, so I couldn’t offer the even the vaguest piece of useful advice. Sorry!

Sorry for posting.
It does not work for Marvell based models.
You could/should mention it in your very good docu.

Thx for your work. I read it and I just bought a DS-107+.
I followed your steps (but except telnet I used the synology patch ssh).
When I start ipkg the following error appears:

DiskStation> ipkg update
/opt/bin/ipkg: /opt/bin/ipkg: 1: Syntax error: “(” unexpected

Any idea?

Hi Rob,

Thanks for this excellent tutorial. I’ve managed to setup telnet and svnserve on my cubestation 406, with no problems!

Repository setup and my first C# project checked in too!

This is great! I’d buy you a beer if you were in Hong kong!
