Troubleshooting​

Viewing Logs​

Seerr logs are located at /var/packages/seerr/var/config/logs and can be accessed using:

  • File Browser package (recommended for most users)
  • SSH (advanced users)

Port Conflicts​

Seerr uses port 5055. If this port is already in use:

  • Docker containers: Remap the conflicting container to a different port
  • Other packages: The conflicting package will need to be uninstalled as Seerr's port cannot be changed

SynoCommunity ensures there are no port conflicts with other SynoCommunity packages or official Synology packages.

  1. Open Package Center
  2. Find Seerr in your installed packages
  3. Click Uninstall
caution

Uninstalling will remove the application but preserve your configuration data by default. Select "Remove data" during uninstallation if you want a complete removal.
