So at the end as you can see Daemon return 2. Free lock and pid files and then it got failed. Can anyone help me out for the installation of GoodSync server in WD MYCLOUD.

Did you download Goodsync from this location?

Yes I download GoodSync from the same location.

Same problem here… Anyone knows how to solve the issue?

Hi,
If you have a single disk MyCloud running firmware 2.XXXXX you need the following from GoodSync (on GoodSyncs download page for WD Nas at the bottom). It works perfectly.

  1. Login to NAS via SSH

  2. Remove any previous installer files:
    rm ~/goodsync*.run

  3. Download specific installer for this model:
    curl -L --output goodsync-wd-mycloud02.run https://www.goodsync.com/download/goodsync-wd-mycloud02.run

  4. Run the installer:
    chmod +x ./goodsync-wd-mycloud02.run
    ./goodsync-wd-mycloud02.run

  5. Point web browser on your desktop PC/Mac to
    http://:11000 to complete installation

  6. If at some point you reboot your NAS, GoodSync Server won’t be up automatically, use this command to start it (via SSH):
    /mnt/HD/HD_a2/goodsync/scripts/goodsync-server-run.sh start

Sorry but doesn’t work. I’m running v04.05.00-342. I still couldn’t solve the issue.

Sorry Tebane,
My solution will only work with the MyCloud single bay using firmware 2.XXXX etc. As you are on 04.05XXXx as I understand it your MyCloud must be an older (mk1 ?) device. The later units run v02 firmware and work with the software I advised.
I think the hardware is very different internally, although the units look identical.

It’s different software. I bought my unit in 2014. Nevertheless, thanks for your help! I will continue trying things.

Hi @tebane, did you end up working out how to install GoodSync on your MyCloud? I’m having problems activating it at port 11000.

Nope, and I give up. I’ll try to start over when I get my patience back.

Fix is here GoodSync My Cloud single bay v04.05.00-342

Thanks for this @zeusmos. Not sure if it was the new file or I just got the install folder right or my admin username, but it worked for me!
