Has anyone had luck running NodeJS on their Synology? I managed to install the package for Node 20, and have enabled SSH access.
Now, I’m trying to run the Node hello world using express. When I run npm install express --save I get the following error:
$ npm install express
npm ERR! code ENOTDIR
npm ERR! syscall mkdir
npm ERR! path /var/services/homes
npm ERR! errno -20
npm ERR! ENOTDIR: not a directory, mkdir '/var/services/homes'
But looking into /var/services we see this:
$ ll /var/services/
total 8

drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4096 Dec 9 20:53 ..

I’m pretty puzzled by the @fake_home_link I see.
