Move TC from Synology NAS to a Ugreen NaS

Hello Henryk,

I have a similar issue.

So far, my Teddycloud has been running without issues on a Synology NAS.

But I want to switch to a Ugree.

I noticed that the volumes in the Synology Docker Container Manager aren’t mounted correctly, meaning no data is stored on the file system, but only somehow internally in the Docker system.

Even through Synology Support and other attempts via SSH, I haven’t been able to copy the data.

Unfortunately, I only saved the patched_esp32 certificate separately.

It would be okay for me to lose the existing data, but of course, the new Teddycloud should work.

Can I simply repeat the same process with the bootloader to pair the toniebox with the new Teddycloud (including accessibility to the boxine cloud)?

Hello everyone,

Two points regarding my problem:

  1. I’ve used Docker for the first time for the Teddycloud and used the template from this post: Teddycloud ESP32 newbie documentation *deprecated*

I’d like to point out that this method gets the Teddycloud running, but doesn’t create a volume in Docker. Therefore, while I can use the Teddycloud perfectly on my Synology NAS, I have no way to create a proper backup or extract the certificates.

I’ve now installed the image on the Ugreen NAS via the user interface and was able to assign port 443 there. This way, I can also view and back up the files (certificates and Tony content) directly.

  1. I’ve now bought a used ESP32 Toniebox for this. I’ll keep the first one for now, and if anyone has a tip on how to access the certificates in Docker, or can subsequently specify a volume so that Docker can spit out the certificates, I might be able to salvage the box. Otherwise, it will probably end up as a spare part donor.

You might have a look into docker docs, especially docker cp command.

I was able to restore the old certificates by mounting both drives (not just one as I initially tried) in Ugreen as external drives. This allows you to access Docker’s own storage and extract the certificates from there.

This closes this topic.
