In the tutorial ‘Install Lidarr on QNAP via Repository’ we discuss how to install Lidarr on a QNAP system via a repository. Although this installation process is relatively simple, it does come at a cost, as the required application ‘apache83’ requires a one-time payment.
Not all QNAP devices are supported; currently only the following models are compatible:
- TS-NASX86
- TS-NASARM_64
Please visit the website for the most up-to-date information, as this may change in the future.
Read this carefully! Install Lidarr Qnap via Repo
If you follow this tutorial, there may be installation costs. The configuration requires the application ‘apache83’. This package is essential for Lidarr to work correctly on these devices. Please note that ‘apache83’ is not free and has a one-time cost.
Would you rather not incur any additional costs? Then there is a free alternative available. Via SSH you can install Lidarr on your QNAP NAS for free. This method requires some technical knowledge, but makes it possible to use Lidarr without additional expenses.

Install Apache83 QPKG Qnap
Lidarr relies on Apache83, a specific version of the Apache web server required for the application to function properly. This version can be purchased from the official website: https://www.myqnap.org/product/apache84/.
Unfortunately, it is necessary to purchase this version, as the compatibility with Lidarr depends on the features and configurations that are only available in Apache83. So, purchasing this version is an important step to make Lidarr work.

And then go to your QNAP device.
Open My Qnap. And search for apache83.
Click +Install, and follow the on-screen instructions.
