            I’m connected via ssh and vnc. I managed to start it with the original config.json. It’s after I put in the synology-module that everything went out the window.

              @vintage89 eh… I cut/pasted the sample config for that module into config.js at the end of the module list and it came up just fine

                I´ll try and start from scratch again :)
                So If I understand you correctly - I don’t have to change the package.json when I’m on the raspberry? :)
