[sudo-nitz]

I installed Mozilla Sync Server (0.20.0-7) from Synocommunity on my Synology NAS server with Disk Station Manager (DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 9).

This software is based on syncstorage-rs package (this build on version 0.20.0).

I previously installed and configured MariaDB 10 to work with WordPress.

I entered the correct password for my database, as I see the "syncstorage-rs" and "tokenserver-rs" tables created in phpMyAdmin.

I entered my private subdomain as the public URL - for example "https://mozilla.mydomain.com/". I generated an SSL certificate (with Let's Encrypt) for this subdomain and created a reverse proxy rule that redirects traffic from https://mozilla.mydomain.com/ to http://localhost:8132/ (with the $http_upgrade, $connection_upgrade, and $http_authorization headers). I have subdomains and reverse proxy rules for other services, such as *arr software, and they work without any issues. I also configured local DNS forwarding for internal traffic (within the local network).

I installed the latest version of the Firefox client on Windows 11. I modified the "identity.sync.tokenserver.uri" parameter to "https://mozilla.mydomain.com/1.0/sync/1.5". I created a bookmark with a link to my NAS server's website. I then logged in to my Mozilla account and synchronized.

I then also logged in to my Mozilla account on the Android app. After synchronizing, the bookmark from the Windows client was gone. Furthermore, I can't see the open tabs from the Android app in the Windows client.

So I checked the "about:sync-logs" in the Windows client - You can find them below.

I think the problem occurs when sync tries to access "https://mozilla.mydomain.com/1.5/4/storage/meta/global" – see the line with timestamp 1757623044685 - "GET fail 500 https://mozilla.lipa.ovh/1.5/4/storage/meta/global".

I don't know what to do next. The advice from ChatGPT (relinking Mozilla accounts, removing the Weave folder from AppData, etc.) didn't help.

I also filed an issue on GitHub regarding FFSYNC software – see SynoCommunity/spksrc#6713. The developers considered this a bug in the syncstorage-rs package.

What else can I check? How can I resolve the issue?

I can provide more details or run other tests, but I don't know what to check at this time.

Thanks for filing. Likely a dupe of #1753 but we won't know until further triage.

Hey @clouserw, I built the server with the patch elements mentioned in #1753 (comment) adapted to v0.21.1. However a very similar error occurs in my test environment:

Hey, @clouserw, this is definitely related to MariaDB. I installed a MySQL 8 server as a docker container and a clean-install of syncstorage-rs server v0.21.1 (from source, no patches). I pointed it to the to the MySQL 8 server and everything worked fine. Switching back to the local MariaDB 10.11 instance I got the following:

I was reading about certain Incompatibilities and Feature Differences Between MariaDB 10.11 and MySQL 8.0, but I am not sure which applies here.

I see there was a patch applied for MariaDB in #1856. Will you guys be releasing an updated version which includes it for testing?

[mreid-tt]

Hi @felfert, thanks for your MariaDB fix in #1856 however I'm not sure it's working for me. I attempted to build the server from the last commit. I had to manually copy the folder /tokenserver-mysql/migrations to /tokenserver-db/migrations for the build to complete but it seemed to work.

On first run the app crashes with the following log output:

I don't know if there is something weird with the build I made or if there remains an incompatibility connecting with MariaDB 10.11 servers. Do let me know if there is anything I can assist with to help resolve this.

[felfert]

Well it says connection refused. That has nothing to do with the query-changes that I made.
So: is your db-server even running (or crashed?) or maybe the database parameters are wrong in the first place? (Also: If you are using a local unix socket, the permissions of that file matter as well - the user running syncserver must have full acces rights to that file)

Cheers
-Fritz

PS: Also, I would NOT recomment using the latest commit, because they are currently refactoring the whole DB stuff which might cause instabilities. Instead use the latest release tarball and apply that patch to it. That's what I do and it works great.

[felfert]

Also: I do NOT run my syncserver in a container, because that adds more bloat and configuration complexity (one has to watch out for errors in configuration of permission/volumes/networks). So: If you are running Fedora or RHEL, I have packages here and if you are running ubuntu 24.04,, I have a package here.

[mreid-tt]

The server doesn't really give much detail in its log so troubleshooting is challenging:

Any advice would be welcomed.

So now the DB access works, but you get an authentication error. According to your client logs,
you are trying to authenticate at a private address: http://192.168.10.73:8132. I'm not 100% shure, but I think this can't work, because it is not a public address. I never tried this in a local network. Did this work for you in the past?
Another cause could be the URL stored in your token-db in the nodes table. The node value must be exactly your syncserver's toplevel URL.

You can check this by running:
echo 'SELECT * FROM nodes' | mysql -t YourDbName
This should show something like:

+----+---------+------------------------------+-----------+--------------+----------+--------+---------+
| id | service | node                         | available | current_load | capacity | downed | backoff |
+----+---------+------------------------------+-----------+--------------+----------+--------+---------+
|  1 |       1 | https://redacted.domain      |         0 |            1 |       10 |      0 |       0 |
+----+---------+------------------------------+-----------+--------------+----------+--------+---------+

I also don't know, whether your non-standard port is to be included in that URL.

I am pretty sure however, that this is now a setup/config issue and not a DB query problem anymore.

Just some hints.

Hey @felfert, thanks for your feedback. Yes, a private address has worked in the past and is a regular part of my testing for desktops (mobile clients won't allow non-SSL addresses). On setup the node is setup correctly in the database as shown below:

MariaDB [tokenserver_rs]> SELECT * FROM nodes;
+----+---------+---------------------------+-----------+--------------+----------+--------+---------+
| id | service | node                      | available | current_load | capacity | downed | backoff |
+----+---------+---------------------------+-----------+--------------+----------+--------+---------+
|  1 |       1 | http://192.168.10.73:8132 |         1 |            0 |        4 |      0 |       0 |
+----+---------+---------------------------+-----------+--------------+----------+--------+---------+
1 row in set (0.000 sec)

I can confirm that this is very much a DB query problem since I noted in #1804 (comment) that if I fire up a MySQL 8 docker container and manually point the configuration to it, the app works flawlessly.

[felfert]

Well, if local addresses worked in the past, then so be it and I am clueless. I have my native package running with mariadb-10.11.11 (also not in a docker container, but as native Fedora42 packages) and that works nicely here.
What puzzles me though is that there are no exceptions thrown in your installation, because if it were a query problem, then there should be exceptions. Perhaps raising the log level to trace reveals something?

Ok, just another stupid question: Did you try with an empty DB (let syncserver initialize the DB at first run)? Thats why I did.
And (mentioned just for completeness - should not matter): I also use only a single DB for both syncstrorage-db and tokenserver-db (table names don't overlap). The other patches, I use can be seen here. A description of the paches can be found in the .spec file.

And this is a list of shared libs, that my build uses on Fedora:

# ldd /usr/libexec/syncserver
        linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fbc478b3000)
        libmariadb.so.3 => /lib64/libmariadb.so.3 (0x00007fbc46bb2000)
        libssl.so.3 => /lib64/libssl.so.3 (0x00007fbc46ada000)
        libcrypto.so.3 => /lib64/libcrypto.so.3 (0x00007fbc46600000)
        libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00007fbc47878000)

        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fbc478b5000)

The package that provides the mariadb connector:

rpm -qf /lib64/libmariadb.so.3
mariadb-connector-c-3.4.5-1.fc42.x86_64

Hi @felfert, thanks so much for your insights. Inspired by your feedback, I deployed a new MariaDB server as a docker container with the older version 10.3.29. I then manually populated the database identically to how it is done on the local deployment using the migration files and the identical node setup. Finally, I switched the config in the local.toml file to point to the new server and voilà. The server log connected successfully from the exact same client with no configuration changes:

So based on this it must be something specific to the way Synology has configured their MariaDB setup. I'll dig a bit deeper into the database config as this proves that it is not a MariaDB issue (at least not with the patch deployed).

One difference as you mentioned is that the local setup is using a unix socket. It's the same one used by previous versions of syncstorage-rs that worked well. The permissions seem to allow for anyone to use it so I'm not sure it's a permission issue (especially since the database setup using diesel migrations all work fine using the same socket):

$ ls -al /run/mysqld/mysqld10.sock
srwxrwxrwx 1 mysql mysql 0 Nov 17 13:19 /run/mysqld/mysqld10.sock

Okay, I switched the local server to enable a TCP connection and set the config in the local.toml file to connect via the IP address 127.0.0.1. Funny enough that worked. So it's not the MariaDB but something using unix sockets which is somehow different in the current deployment than with the previous version. Any thoughts on why diesel migrations work but not syncstorage connections?

EDIT: Here's the server log working using an IP of 127.0.0.1 to the local MariaDB:
