From Cumulus MX version 3 build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since, and has recently released Cumulus MX version 4. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

The issue is the version of libc - GLIBC - on your system does not match what the sqlite library is expecting.
The problem is that sqlite comes as precompiled native binary modules rather than .NET IML DLLs. They are generally compiled against the latest version of libc available for each platform.
A quick search shows quite a few other packages with the same problem of old versions of libc on Synology.
The only way around this would be to recompile the sqlite module from source on the NAS server, linking it to the version of libc available.

Thanks.

Ah
I think this may be in the too difficult pile!
My copy of DSM is 7.1.1. update 6, as far as I am aware there are no updates - not sure if 7.2 is available for my 918+

OK
So I had a check around the synology site and discovered that my 918+ can be updated further but it won't happen automtically as apparently Synology devices only automatically update if its necessary for security/stability reasons
One manual update later (to 7.2.1 update 1) and all is working and cmx updating

So in summary
Ensure your NAS is at least at DMS version 7.2.1 update1
Add the community repository as detailed in the instructions
Follow the instructions, careful about the case sensitivity!
Hugely grateful and thanks to everyone for their help
PS checked the NAS 214 play on the website and it won't update past 7.1.1 update 6
I used Cumulus until 2016 when I started using Meteotemplate which I still use now.
However MT seems to have been abandoned by the developer and more and more of it is breaking with later php releases, so I have been looking for alternatives.
A few days ago I set up Cumulus MX on a Raspberry Pi, then found this thread and have managed to get it running on my Synology NAS - a perfect use for this always-on device!
One extra step to get this working was to allow port 8998 in the firewall rules on the Synology. Without this, if you’re using the firewall, it doesn’t work.
