The location of the logfile has changed! Please read the below lines or the documentation

Added

• The package will create a new shared folder named airconnect, you can also find it via FileStation
  • In this folder you will find the airconnect logfile in the subdirectory log, so it is no longer necessary for normal use to log in via SSH to view the logfile.
    • The full path is /volume1/airconnect/log/airconnect.log
  • Also, if you have a AirConnect configuration file for airupnp or aircast you could now copy this files also to the same directory in /volume1/airconnect, also using FileStation.
  • The files must be named as follows so that AirConnect can find the config files:
    • config.xml for airupnp
    • config-cast.xml for aircast
• If you login using SSH, you can now start airupnp or aircast just by running airupnp or aircast without using the full path
  • airupnp and aircast are now added to the PATH (symlinked using DSM config in /usr/local/bin)
