QNAP Virtualization Station

[scubajwd]

Tried implementing Virtualization Station on my QNAP TS-653…complains that
ports 8088/8089 are being used by other apps ( Channels DVR); is there a known
work-around for this? Don’t want to shut off Channels DVR

You need to change the port in virtualization station. See the following thread for exactly what to change (@tmm1 has a screenshot):

QNAP install - Cannot open Channels DVR Beta from QNAP Menu (Error BAD REQUEST)

1) I subscribed to the Channels DVR Beta. 2) Downloaded the package for my QNAP NAS TS-251+ 3) installed the package successfully. 4) When I select OPEN I get the following error Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port. Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please.

Thanx for the tip…tried stopping Channels DVR…but still get the blank window telling me
that ports 8088/8089 need to be freed up…I’m on latest version of 4.2 on this QNAP…something
tells me that I need to remove Channels DVR to get around this…something I don’t want to do
altho I could do a restore to get my recordings back…Uninstall Channels DVR and then make the
changes to ports used in the Virtualization Station

Nevermind, it seems you did try stopping it.

[jkline]

Did you stop it from the QNAP apps page or did you uncheck the DVR checkbox in the DVR settings page? If you did the latter, try the former.

[scubajwd]

I tried both…thanx for the continued interest…some service or process must be
still attached to the ports after I stop the DVR app…I really hate to remove the DVR app
to try this out…but I don’t have any other ideas

[tmm1]

Stopping the DVR should be enough. It definitely says stopped in the app center?

Can you screenshot the error you see?

[tmm1]

If you decide to remove the DVR, you should be able to reinstall and visit http://x.x.x.x:8089/restore to get your data back.

I’ll send the screenshot later today; thanx for the interest

I had the same question in January. This may help you out.

QNAP install - Cannot open Channels DVR Beta from QNAP Menu (Error BAD REQUEST)

So I removed Channels DVR , edited the port info for VS and was able to
configure the VS with my Network & storage locations…had to reboot my QNAP NAS
to clear the 8088/8089 error I posted above…reboots hurt, BTW…did a reinstall of Channels DVR and a restore and seem back in business… VS did not support my level of port-trunking for the
Virtual Switch so I had to modify all my network interfaces…took some time but everything
is in place now…I just need to move my file-serving & plex server to another network
trunk
