Vidabox Opensqueeze Solo is not PCP (and it seem no longer supported by
vendor) so it needs a thread of its own as it'll be a hacking job to get
it working.

if you're running piCorePlayer, just get a new SD card and burn a new
piCorePlayer image to the card and go through setup. See:

Thanks all. Overwrote max2play with piCore running LMS and things are
back to normal (still need to finish tweaking options and plugins). I do
like that piCore survives non-graceful shutdowns and appears to have
good provision for backing up LMS settings. 

Not using piCore Player at the moment, but now thinking again about
getting a HiFiBerry or Allo HAT for my other RPi as a possible
replacement for one of my SBs. Cheers!

agree on piCorePlayer. I'm running it in a few places and it works
extremely well. I'm a long-time Vortexbox user, but as some of my VB
installs are dying, I'm replacing with rPi running piCorePlayer and LMS.
I never used the CD ripping function or PLEX function of the VB server
in any case.

I suspect that may be the best way to go. PiCore Player is very polished
now although I haven't tried the server on it yet, I just build
VortexBoxes when I need a new server.

But it is good to see another old timer back on the forum. Be interested
to see how the two compare, especially in setup.

Stay well.

Thanks. No special settings that I recall. And I can't get into the
WebUI now to confirm

The server.log is filled with the following lines, posting every 5
seconds (connected with 'sleep 5' process no doubt):
-mm-dd hh:mm:ss Logitech Media Server died. Restarting.

Think I'm going to just overwrite the RPi installation of max2play and
LMS, or maybe give PiCore Player a spin as an alternative to max2 play.
And once I have things restored keep a clone of the SD card in a safe
place.

Slightly more info. The last process listed is just the grep from the ps

Yep, IP addresses are ok. But always good not to overlook the most basic

You've probably checked this, but I assume the IP address of the LMS
server hasn't changed with all the powering down of things (like your
router maybe). That would explain LMS running, but not being accessible
via the webGUI.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS refusing to connect

2020-09-11 Thread aubuti


I feel dumb about this because several years ago when I hung out a lot
in these forums I could help other people resolve such matters. 

I've been running LMS 8.0.0 -- one of the nightlies from 1-2 months ago
-- just fine on a Raspberry Pi under Max2play. Two days ago it had an
abrupt shutdown when an electrician in the house started flipping
circuit breakers randomly until he found the one he wanted. Since then
LMS appears to start, but none of my SBs can see it and iPeng can't see
it. If I point my browser to :9000 I get the message: 

"This site can't be reached. 111.222.333.444 refused to connect. Try
checking the connection [and] checking the proxy and firewall.
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED"

On the other hand, the max2play web interface indicates that LMS is
running, and if I login via Putty I see that the squeezeboxserver
process is running, with the same pid that max2play reports. If I click
max2play's button "Open Squeezebox Server Webadministration" I get the
same "refused to connect" message as when I go manually to LMSip:9000
(no surprise there).

So: 
- what is likely to be going on?
- where do I look in the logs to figure out what is going on?

As a final note, I cleverly set up a (almost) clone of my functioning
LMS on another SD card installed in another RPi. Then, not so cleverly,
I had the backup RPi plugged in (but powered down) on the same strip as
the functioning RPi. It is now exhibiting the same behavior, so I'm
wondering if it came on after one off/on of the breaker, and then shut
down abnormally on the next off/on, corrupting the SD card in a manner
similar to the corruption on the main RPi. That is, if file corruption
is indeed the issue.

Thanks in advance for help with diagnosis and resolving.
