After installing SSL can't administer DS

[kenco8801]

Hi
After following the instructions posted here:
viewtopic.php?f=36&t=21704
I can no longer get onto the web administration of the DS.
Can anyone suggest a way to disable HTTPS and enable HTTP? via SSH?
Thank

For more info, I cannot start apache

/usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S97apache-user.sh start
Start User Apache Server .....
/usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S97apache-user.sh: user httpd could not be started

try /usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S97apache-sys.sh start

Hi GNOE,
That didn't work either:

/usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S97apache-sys.sh start
Start System Apache Server ..... -DSSL -f /usr/syno/apache/conf/httpd.conf-sys
/usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S97apache-sys.sh: system httpd could not be started

I have the same problem. Have you found a solution ?

Is there a way to disable ssl using ssh ?

[GNOE Inc.]

Yes, we have:

Pfff, that's a long time ago. As far as I can recall, there was a script in /usr/syno/etc/ssl called mkcert.sh that would reinstall the original key's and certificates.

** searching the internet **

Restoring certificates

In case something goes wrong, Synology has supplied an easy way to, not restore, but create a set of new and working certificates. This should restore the certificates if importing certificates from the web manager has failed. If you need a telnet or ssh client use PuTTY.

Login as root, using the admin users password, to the Synology NAS drive using telnet or ssh. And type the following in the command prompt:

cd /usr/syno/etc/ssl/
./mkcert.sh

Allow the script to finish, and type reboot in the prompt.
In a while the NAS drive should have rebooted, and everything should be fine again.

Take a look at this, at the bottom of the mentioned page is the thingy that you're probably looking for?

I solved my problem but my solution was much more complicated than running a simple script.

Thanks for your answer.

[kenco8801]

I was far too impatient to wait for GNOE's reply (but very grateful all the same as his solution may have caused less stress)

I hit the reset button on the backup of my DS411slim and hoped for the best - it didn't wipe the drives, I just had to reinstall DSM.

Reset button worked. No wipeout all good now.

Hello,
I have the same problem, but can not access via ssh / telnet ...

I performed the reset with the 3 beeps, and left me to reinstall the DSM, but still can not enter into any service http.

This happened to me after installing certificates


Sorry for my bad english, only speak Spanish.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie, so forgive me if this question has already been answered. I didn't find it.

My DS212+ was installed and working fine until I decided to upload in it a SSL key and certificate for security purposes.
From that moment, I am unable to reach the WEB server of the NAS (HTTP, HTTPS, Bonjour, WEBDAV, …) and cannot control it anymore. However, Synology Assistant finds it.

I have tried the resets and even re-installed the DSM (4.1-2636). No change.

Any idea ? Thanks.

First of all thanks to everyone for your help, and mainly to "GNOE Inc."

In his post THE solution is at the bottom in the link:

All fine, but how do you "login in the Synology using TELNET or SSH" when you are not a geek or just clever enough ?

On an iMac, I don't have PUTTY. So here is what I did :

1. I opened "Terminal"
2. In the menu "SHELL" -> "New distant connection"
3. Use SSH; IP: the address of your Synology (manual or DHCP); login: root; password: your admin pwd. (Note that in Terminal the password you type does not show on the screen ! Just type-in the correct PWD then Enter)
4. If there is a RSA-ID warning accept it by typing yes
5. At the prompt "Synology> ", type exactly "cd /usr/syno/etc/ssl/" then "Enter"
6. And type "./mkcert.sh
7. Allow time for the script to perform…
8. And finally type "Reboot"

It will take time for your Synology to reboot and you will receive a warning of lost connection (of course !) for your SSH connection to the Synology. When the connection is lost, you can close Terminal.

There is NOTHING new in my post, but I simply tried to ease the points where I had difficulties to proceed forward…

Thank you!!!
A simple reboot did it in my case already

I have DS-209+II and my Firefox can't open it's DSM via HTTPS. So I just do this and it's work:

1) Log into your DS as root via SSH
2) cd /etc
3) vi synoinfo.conf
4) press "/" and type "runHTTPS" without quotes of course, appropriate settings line will looks like this one: runHTTPS="yes".
5) press "i" key
6) change the runHTTPS="yes" to runHTTPS="no" on settings line
7) press ESC key
8) type ":wq" and press Enter (without quotes)
9) on command line type: /usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S97apache-sys.sh restart
10) open your web browser and try to connect to your DS on its IP address (ex. 192.168.1.15)

Now you should be able to connect to your DSM without HTTPS.
