Here's what I did that worked.  My platform is ARM7 Arch Linux on a
Cubox -i4 Pro

Details of the installation here.  Works like a champ!  Thanks for the
help here it was a push in the right direction.

The best, most comprehensive, instructions are the ones found here:

You still have the choice of building perl 5.14.2 from sources and using
a nightly tar ball with pre-compiled CPAN libraries or keep using perl
5.18.2 but then build your *own* CPAN libraries. Fortunately, the
instructions referenced above cover both procedures in reasonable
detail.

 Didn't work.  It told me it didn't load some modules.

It seems the nightlies only contain arm binaries for perl = 5.14 (see '
here'
(https://github.com/Logitech/slimserver/tree/public/7.8/CPAN/arch)), so
you'll either have to downgrade your perl, or build the binary modules
yourself.

I have Perl 5.18.2-2

Will the build work on this version and to be honest I've never done
anything like this before. Are there any clear cut instructions for
this?

Sorry that my suggestion didn't work. I thought that support for 5.18
had been added, and it has, just not *binary* support for 5.18 in the
daily builds.

You have two choices, locally build a supported version of Perl (e.g.,
5.14) or hack the buildme.sh script to try to build versions of the
missing Perl modules that would work under 5.18. 

http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?99648-Howto-build-a-self-contained-LMS
shows some details about getting away from your Platform's Perl and that
might be a way to go.

You have definitely chosen the path less traveled by going for Arch
Linux. Had you gone for Fedora 19 or 20, you could have used the
repositories maintained by Clive Messer from here
http://www.communitysqueeze.org/   Then you could to yum install
squeezeboxserver and be done.

Alternatively, had you installed say Debian “wheezy” 7.4 which also
supports armhf, you would have had a 5.14 system Perl and then you could
have used the logitech nightly tar file per my original suggestion. 

But okay, you did choose ArchLinux to challenge yourself, right?

[SlimDevices: Unix] LMS on Cubox Arm7?

2014-02-17 Thread hagensieker

I just got a Cubox -i4 Pro and installed Arch Linux on it.  Is it
possible to get LMS installed on it.  Perl version is 5.18

I did install squeezelite and pointed it at another server in the home
and it works great. 

Also I have another SD card with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS which of course there
is a .deb package for so I can run LMS just by card swapping if I need
to.

However, I'd like to install it on Arch arm7 if that is humanly
possibly.  What say the experts here?

Why don't you try the ARM Linux Tarball (for Perl 5.8-5.14, ARM EABI)
from the nightlies from here:
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.8?  Although this will
not have been compiled with hard floating point, it should still work. 


As an ordinary user (not root), you could try something like the
following:

Code:


  wget 
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/7.8/sc/cedf697/logitechmediaserver-7.8.0-1391769631-arm-linux.tgz
  tar xvf ./logitechmediaserver-7.8.0-1391769631-arm-linux.tgz
  cd ./logitechmediaserver-7.8.0-1391769631-arm-linux
  ./slimserver.pl 
  



(The version number embedded in the name of the tar archive changes
every night, so please adjust accordingly.)

If this starts up LMS okay, you should install it in a more official
place and create a startup script for it. If not, please report back
here and someone else may have a better idea.
