I can give it a try, I'm no expert though. I assume you are on a Linux box. 1. The directory must be owned by the user that runs the SQ service. Go to a directory in your SB installation (see the "information" tab on the settings page of your SB web). Example: cd /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/ 2. Check the ownership of the directories: ls -l Output should be something like this: drwxr-xr-x 11 squeezeboxserver nogroup 4096 2011-10-24 11:53 cache drwxr-xr-x 3 squeezeboxserver nogroup 4096 2011-10-24 11:53 Plugins drwxr-xr-x 3 squeezeboxserver nogroup 4096 2011-10-24 21:12 prefs You now can see that in my case the owner is 'squeezeboxserver', and group is 'nogroup', possibly the same in your installation. You should use this info when altering the permissions on your 2.0.4 directory in step 4. 3. Go to you plugins folder where you have extracted/copied the 2.0.4 version, possibly /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/Plugins : cd /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/Plugins 4. Change owner and group of the Spotify directory that should reside within the plugins directory: sudo chown -R squeezeboxserver Spotify sudo chgrp -R nogroup Spotify (use user and group info from step 2) 5. Restart the SB service sudo /etc/init.d/squeezeboxserver stop (wait a little..) sudo /etc/init.d/squeezeboxserver start 6. Now the plugin should be loaded. If not, the 2.0.4 plugin might be available to tick on the plugins setting page as an inactive plugin. If so, install it as you would install any other plugin (tick the checkbox and apply) -- YeeeHaaa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ YeeeHaaa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21928 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79706 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
