Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Raspberry Pi mit volumio & LMS -> LMS is di
B) volumio 2.246 Distro (based on Rasbian) runs stable Most likely the log folder being volatile is a Volumio specific customization of Raspbian. It's documented how to do this in many places, as people try to prevent wearing out the SD card. But it's not Raspbian default behaviour. -- Michael ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Raspberry Pi mit volumio & LMS -> LMS is di
After months of unsuccessful testing of different solution strategies, I have now received quite unexpectedly a 'solution' (https://volumio.org/forum/#p36626) in the volumio forum. Thanks Karl! "The basic problem ... that LMS will fail to start if it cannot open its log files at startup. It uses the location /var/log/squeezeboxserver which is a directory created at installation time. Unfortunately on Raspbian this directory is in a temporary in-memory space (to save wear and tear on your sd card) so is wiped out after each reboot. To fix this we need to tell raspbian to re-create the directory after each reboot." "...we need to re-create the temp directory each time:"# Code: sudo nano /etc/rc.local "Now insert the next three lines just before the 'exit 0' line" Code: mkdir /var/log/squeezeboxserver/ chown squeezeboxserver /var/log/squeezeboxserver/ chmod 775 /var/log/squeezeboxserver/ exit 0 "Once the system is back up Logitech Media Server should start normally." And yes - that it!

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Raspberry Pi mit volumio & LMS -> LMS is di
Since good advice did not solve a problem, I helped myself. My last question was: do you need additional patches for an LMS installation on Rasbian, as recommended in several older descriptions*. I would have liked to have a statement from a skilled expert. I still had a RasbPi in stock and therefore simply installed the current version Rasbian. After the necessary basic configuration (language, time, memory usage, keyboard and fixed IP**) I installed LMS 7.9.0 and ... it runs stably and cleanly without the I still PHP etc. had to patch. After some attempts I have also integrated my music library on the NAS via mount e.g. fstab entry and on top an additional cache directory on the NAS. The LMS music database moves to this cache next, so that read/write operations on the SD card remain as low as possible. Thus, I have created a reference system and can now compare this to the corrupt LMS installation on Volumio-Distro after restart/reboot a succesful installation.

I think this is very good advice. I have noticed that the popularity of a SB/LMS solution is dependant on the forum you are on. So you need to pick the right solution or right forum.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Raspberry Pi mit volumio & LMS -> LMS is di
Thanks for the recommendations. Before I blame others (volumio), ask wether I made a mistake during the implementation (after more than 20 installations and despite the initial running LMS) or just ignore the problem (switch to another MPD product) ... ... maybe we can just solve the problem. To do this, lets ignore the volumio instance and clarify the prerequisites of LMS on RasbPi: I found some recommendations in the www which recommend a post-processing of the LMS installation on RasbPi (e.g. 'here' (http://raspberry-at-home.com/logitech-media-server/), 'here' (http://blog.johjoh.de/squeezebox-auf-den-raspberry-pi/) and 'here' (http://c64-online.com/?page_id=154)). The main advice is to install an additional file (lms-rpi-raspbian.tar.gz or lms-patches.tgz) as a patch. What exactly this patch does (with PHP?) is nowhere really explained. Apart from this, these instructions are two to three years old and so refer to old releases. The question arises therefore, whether with the current releases Debian Jessie and LMS 7.9.0 is necessary or possibly even counterproductiv? Or in other words, what is the correct way to install a stable LMS on Debian Jessie? Can anyone of the experts give a reliable statement on this issue?

No root and using "sudo" is normal for many distro - there are plenty of post regarding the security rationale for this approach. I don't know volumio distro and it seems to have done something weird or else you have done LMS installation incorrectly 1. Get back onto volumnio message boards as it seems to be a volumio issue. 2. Learn more Linux. Permissision basics - read onling there are plenty of tutorials. Each userid is a member of a group. Files and directories have basically 3 perrmissions - Read, Write and Execute/List Files and Directories are owned by a user (who is in a group) - so each file has an owning User and Group and so to control access to a file/duirec - permissions on the file / directory are set for the Owner, The owning Group and Others So to check if squeeze+ can write to /var/log 1. Check the gorup to which squeeze+ belong 2. Check the ownership of the /var/log directory 3. Compare permission of /var /log for User, Group and Others against squeeze+ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107359 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

No port 3483 open so I think LMS is not really running - possibly squeezeboxserver_safe keeps trying to start it and each time LMS fails (from ps output LMS has small CPU usage).
