Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Need Help getting LMS to run on Ubuntu on Pi 4

2021-05-12 Thread DLD-UK


I only recently came back to this. Following Ronnie's instructions
(thank you for that Ronnie) I got a little further but still no joy.

The results I got were different. Whether this is because I'm still
using Ubuntu 20.10 or because when I went to install LMS 8.2 it was a
different revision, I don't know. As the results were different I
decided to remove LMS and start from scratch. But I guess that removing
LMS does not remove the account etc. as the new install did not create a
new account as shown in Ronnie's install.

I am further along in that I can connect to LMS from a browser but then
I get stuck at the mysqueezebox login prompt. It seems to be trying to
run a wizard but entering my login details does nothing.

For some reason mysqueezebox.com appeared to think my password was wrong
and it took a number of password reset requests before I got a new
password. I can login to mysqueezebox.com from another browser window so
clearly the new password is working.

But still no joy. Does this mean I need a different account and password
for each server?

I find it very strange that I need to enter a mysqueezebox.com login
before it will run a local wizard. What is the point of that?

Anyone got any idea as to what I do now and how I debug this?

I came back to this today as I was a little puzzled, having previously
run both pCP and raspberry PI OS on a ssd, and thinking that Ubuntu
being popular with many as a server, the install should be
straight-forward :rolleyes:

I tried using the rpi imager to select and install the LTS but it would
not start.

I made an image on a sd card and was able to to install LMS and
squeezelite.

I copied that image to my Windows 10 Pro Desktop and used Balena-Etcher
to burn it to a hybrid usb hard drive No luck with that :confused:

I found a post with instructions to replace the some of the start up
files in the /boot and also install new files to help the Ubuntu image
boot.No luck with that :confused:

I then swapped to a Crucial sata ssd usb drive and repeated the
process..You know that definition of stupidity :p

Any way much internet searching found this

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Need Help getting LMS to run on Ubuntu on Pi 4

2021-04-30 Thread v2k


I'll have to bow out and leave it to the man in the van. I've tried
installing a bunch of perl modules but so far without luck but at least
it got my memory working. My installations of LMS 8.1.1 and their
results:
Ubuntu server 20.04 and 18.04 on intel - LMS and local player plugin
works.
Raspberry PI OS (current...) - LMS works, can not get local player to
output audio, works if I manually start the bin.
Ubuntu server 20.04 and 18.04 on raspberry - can not get LMS to work.

I don't have the PI OS install any more but the ubuntus run perl 5.26.1
or 5.30. It is probably related to perl somehow but I don't know enough
about it to tell.

Sorry, hope you get it working!

a sd card I had discarded as not working

I popped it into the rpi 4b to check out the perl version,  I ran
ifconfig to get the IP Address but it was not installed (and neither was

It's beyound my pay grade I'm sorry to say :(:confused::o

I have a vauge memory that the Desktop version allows for LMS to be

desktop version does

If I have time tomorrow I'll try and look at it again, but don't hold

I think this is purely an Ubuntu problem

It would be nice of someone familiar with Ubuntu to step in here :)

The ubuntu version is 20.10 server headless. It was downloaded by the
Raspberry Pi imager software so I can't provide a link. It is running
fine. In fact I am impressed with how well it runs on the Pi which is a
Pi 4 with 8GB.

I tried the LTS version which is what I really wanted but that would not
boot from the SSD. I don't know why but I guess it is just not as up to
date as 20.10.

MiniDLNA was also a dream to install. My only problem is getting LMS to
install. I have followed all the instructions I have found on the
Internet and done an uninstall between each attempt.

With all of the instructions I have followed I end up with the same
result. LMS appears to be installed but dies as soon as it is started.

I thought the most likely issue was the version of Perl and I'm sure I'm
missing some Perl libraries. I could not find which version of Perl LMS
8.1.1 wants? I updated Perl to the latest version and tried again but it
still failed

I've been running LMS 8.1.1 on Windows for a while and never had an
issue so I don't have a clue how to work out why it is failing on
Ubuntu.

Sorry, I didn't reply because I didn't understand your post. I went to
the link and didn't find anything about LMS and Ubuntu is working fine.
What was I missing?

I got LMS from the standard LMS download site.

I have read the link you posted now but I am still looking for a
definitive guide to installing LMS on Ubuntu. Everything I find is so
confusing and I've removed everything a number of times and started
again, without success.

One of the most confusing things is that all the instructions talk about
Logitechmediaserver and Squeezebox server. That makes it very difficult
to know what to search for.

It is not clear to me whether the postings I find on the Internet are
referring to the latest versions or old versions.

I'm sure I am missing some Perl libraries but which? Why are they not
installed as part of LMS?

One poster on the Internet I've followed said that he got everything to
work except for a firewall issue. I disabled the firewall to ensure it
wasn't that. Still no joy.

So, I am completely lost! I assume LMS has a way of posting more debug
information to tell me why it keeps dying, but I don't know how to get
that info?

I upgraded to Perl v5.30.3. Not sure why a fresh install of Ubuntu
followed by all updates had a older version but so be it.

However, it still doesn't work. What libraries do I need to install. 

The only errors I am getting in the log is that the server died and is
restarting. That is just continuous.

Is there somewhere else I should be looking?

It took me a while to figure out what was going on but the copying of
files from my SSD backup from Windows to the Ubuntu SSD would only copy
some files. I'm not sure of all the issues but I think the & in a folder
name was causing some of the problems. I got no copy errors, but the
file copying just stopped.

Bulk Rename Utility is the most wonderful software for sorting such
things out.

Ubuntu is 20.10 (I couldn't get the LTS version to boot from the SSD)
Perl is v5.30.3

I just did this but still can't remember much :)

My issue was that LMS was seen as running but I couldn't connect to it.
It turned out that a bunch of perl libraries was missing. If you stop
the service (sudo service logitechmediaserver stop) and then run it
manually (squeezeboxserver) it ought to tell you what's missing.

How did you have to change the filenames? As far as I know Linux
filenames are quite forgiving.

Are you using a version from here ?

There must be more information in the log than just "Logitech Media
Server died".   Likely a perl or perl library issue.   Make sure you
have installed "libio-socket-ssl-perl" at a minimum.

What version of ubuntu, and what perl version is it using (perl -v) ?
