Hi, I have been running 7.9.2 on my Ubuntu 18.04.03 LTS system since February, and it has been working great.
I originally installed it from the nightly build package using apt. Today I downloaded the nightly build for 7.9.3 and first tried installing/upgrading it with dpkg -i logitechmediaserver_7.9.3_1591161343_i386.deb There were messages about changing the ownership of the files in /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/ from group slim to group nogroup. The server would not run at that point. /var/log/squeezeboxserver/server.log updated every five seconds with the message: 2020-06-30 09:36:35 Logitech Media Server died. Restarting. I tried changing the file group ownership to "slim" and restarted the logitechmediaserver service. Same behavior and messages. I removed the package with apt purge logitechmediaserver and deleted /var/lib/squezeboxserver. Then I installed it again with apt install ./logitechmediaserver_7.9.3_1591161343_i386.deb Same messages and behavior. Is there a way to find out why the server is dying? When I originally installed under Ubuntu, I had a problem with using an old server.prefs file that was pointing to an old music db location, and when I deleted the old server.prefs the server started and I was able to follow the setup wizard through the web interface. But this time I'm working with no server.prefs file in place (or any other files in the prefs directory) before installing. So I'm stuck. I could really use some more detailed error messages, or a better understanding of where all the LMS files are stored so I can make sure I'm starting from a blank slate when I install. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ John Stimson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=218 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112505 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
