First break!

Thanks to @mariosipad's suggestions, I have taken a step forward.

Somewhere along the line I had done a

Code:

$ python -V

and received a positive reply on v2.7.12. I kept on believing that was a valid install.

But after the prompt to check again, I actually looked for python files on the QTS fs. None found. But there were a bunch in the Ubuntu Linux Station install. Apparently the python version check did not limit itself to python in QTS, but checked in the Ubuntu install as well. Grrrrrr!

So, went into the app center on QNAP and sure enough, neither of the 2 python vers shown were installed. So installed v2.7.3. However, when I do a version check, it still shows only the v2.7.12, not v2.7.3. Well, pagekite likes whatever it is, so I am not going to argue or try to remove v2.7.12 unless it somehow gives me problems later.

I found a pagekite.py file in my linux pc backups and put it in

Code:

/usr/local/bin

Now when I enter pagekite.py, I get the normal intro menu with a blank setup; just as it should be.

I have all the COP files in the

Code:

Web/cops

folder. So now I need to get the pagekite.rc file up to snuff with my configuration so it can connect to the COPS server.

I will report back with those results.

Thanks again @mariosipad!
