Hello,
I'm trying to get my logitech media server to work again on opensuse
12.2 x86_64
After updating to opensuse 12.2 LMS died on me and refused to start
again.
I did a clean install after this and tried several times again and
again, after which I decided to start packaging the missing
This solution helped me too, finally.
I had tried setting the permissions:
sudo chmod 777 /home/user/Music
...and still scanned 0 files.
Currently, I've got 2,762 with the new permissions. Well done!

By the way, if you are networked and use Windows then installing Webmin
on your Ubuntu machine makes it much, much, much easier to deal with
these things through the Webmin windows interface.

Hello,
I've managed to work around the Media::Scan error this way :
ln -s /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/5.14
/usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/5.16
I noticed there is no /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/5.16 folder
which means that a lot of stuff is missing for perl 5.16
Now
There is a relevant bug .

But maybe someone have made it anyway .

The key is the -R for example #sudo chmod -R 777
R stands for
Hi,
I've found that bug as well, after reading that it occured to me it
might be a lot of work to get it to work under 12.2 so i downgraded
after 3 days of debugging.
I'm not a noob with perl but I am with the cvs structure of LMS and how
the compiling of the libs goes.
I will put some effort
Dear All,
As you might see from my profile - I've been a member on here for over 7
years (not as long as some I may add!). I had some great help setting up
my linux server and things have just worked for many years!
I returned to the forums as I do intermittently to see if anything
exciting was
Lms 7.7.2 has been very stable for me.

I'm very much a novice where Ubuntu is concerned but I have been using
11.04 for about a year and it had worked fine with LMS - though I'm not
saying other releases aren't just as good, I just don't know.
I too have been using LMS 7.7.2 and have found it very stable with
absolutely no problems.
I would recommend VortexBox although any Linux distro would do. The
advantage of VortexBox is it's designed to be an audio centric linux
distro and has LMS pre-installed. If your worried about the future you
could keep a copy of the LMS source tar ball. That way you could build
it for any future
Some answers, not all.
Have a look at the 'full release notes'
(http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Release_Notes) on the wiki to
choose your server version.
My recap of the past years would be:
* 7.3.4 a very stable version that works well with the older players.
Uses mysql. Has the plugin
Would not 7.7.2 or 7.8 offer some bugfixes I remember some 7.6 version
that was not very stable at all ?
7.8 is not as unstable as the betas used to be due to the demise of the
whole SB line there is not much of diff vs 7.7.2 but some bugfixes that
could be good to have

Not saying anything against 7.7.2, but on my linux machine, 7.6.2 works
perfectly, for months at a time. This is why I don't have any need to
upgrade yet.

FYI, that's not very secure. It protects you from

Thanks for explaining that.
I am still a bit of a ubuntu newbie, having learnt just enough to get by
with what I am doing. Looks like I need to get down to some reading up.
