@Stephen, @mjw, et. al.

This was not fun to figure out, but I understand what’s happening now and why @Twista_XP is having issues. The good news is there’s no emergency here.

@Twista_XP is trying to directly pull an image from the “Images” tab. This hits the issues that you read about on the internet with Synology accessing ghcr. There are legitimate Synology issues with that.

The installation guidance, which @Twista_XP should be following, is to go to the Projects tab and create a Project using the compose YAML created by the configurator. The compose file will begin with something like:

```auto
services:
  roonx:
    image: ghcr.io/roonlabs/roonserver:latest

```

That should work just fine with no custom registry configuration, ssh, use of portainer/dockhand. The reason why is that Container Manager just pushes the complete compose into Docker and then Docker does the pull, which works fine.

I don’t use Synology but I dusted my old one off to try this and it works just perfectly. Also note that the path that @Twista_XP was on was, best case, just going to get an image downloaded by no container would have been created.

@Twista_XP - you need to follow this guide. I think it’s missing a step or two but it’s the right way to do it.
