Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
Thanks Jim, It was even dumber than that. Somewhere along the line I turned off the internal pi radio. All is well now. Thanks for all your consideration and have a spectacular weekend.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
I had copied all of the screens from before and set the AP Mode up the same way this time. It is 10.10.10.1 and, as mentioned, it does give my phone an ip address like before, but I can not open the pCP web page or 10.10.10.1:9000/material like I used to. Took me a long time to download a working version of AP Mode. It may still have a corrupt file of some sort. After trying to get the entire thing working for several days I was just worn out and happy to have music in the car again. :-) I still have the flash card from the previous install. I could slap it in a pi and look again, but I had actually copied the image of each screen on the working version.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
Hi Jim, Well, all is working now so I'm a happy camper once again. I did get AP Mode working...with the exception of I can't hit it with a browser. I use my phone to change any setting in pCP. It hands out an IP address and connects, but, as I said, I can't pull up the pCP web page. Not much of an issue though and I'll live without i until I feel like messing with it again. The pCP server/player is the best thing about the car :-) Cheers, Howard d6jg wrote: > It was the latest pCP image as of a month ago. > I did have issues getting LMS configured - see my thread - but that was > nothing to do with WAP. > > I built it with LAN connected and then removed the LAN when everything > was working.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
Hi d6jg, What version of pCP did you use? I suppose LMS may eventually start, but it didn't within a few minutes. With the way I have it set up, it starts to play within about 20-30 seconds, even before the pCP Player splash screen comes up. WAP mode wasn't the problem. AP Mode was.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
I built a standalone pCP in WAP mode with LMS not too long ago and it works fine without date/time. When I boot it it is set to auto start a particular playlist.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
Thanks Paul. The console showed the LMS load waiting for the time. It never went any further until I added a date in the bootlocal.sh file as you mentioned unless I had a network connection. For some reason none of the stuff I had documented worked until I started with pCP 7.0.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
Hi Greg, I did manage to get it all working, but I had to start with pCP 7.0 and several tries to get a working LMS download and AP Mode extension. I don't know what that was all about. I could never get the NTFS extension to download, but it seems like it was included in the Full Update of Squeezelite extensions. I couldn't download it any other way. I got the changes done in the bootlocal.sh file and everything was working, but I did not have the SD Card Imaging. I updated to pCP 8.0 and that fixed that. Made my changes to the JogglerSkinApplet. Last piece of the puzzle. LMS would not start unless there was a network connection until I changed the bootlocal.sh file. Specifically the date as Paul mentioned. Nothing seemed to work unless I started with pCP 7.0. Once I did that, everything worked well with the exception of getting a good LMS file. Thanks for taking the time to help and have a great weekend. Howard Greg Erskine wrote: > Hi Howard, > > Did you set a static IP?

Hi Howard, Did you set a static IP? By doing this you avoid some of the network checks.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
LMS does not really care what the date is. The delay is probably pCP waiting for the time. The file /etc/init.d/settime.sh has a delay and loop - and it waits for the year to be greater than or equal to 2018 ... so you could force the date to be something like 1/1/2022 at the top of that script and it would probably work.

[SlimDevices: Unix] Do you have a way to start pCP/ LMS without RTC (date and time)
I have a server in my car so there's no network. I used to be able to
modify the bootlocal.sh file to read (See below) and that would bypass
LMS needing the time. I got help on this from Paul, but I don;t think
he's still around. This doesn't seem to work with pCP 8.0 or greater.
Anyone else running a pCP server with out networking? How did you get by
the long delay while LMS waits for the time to be set?
Thanks, Howard
