* I am getting a lot off qeustion regarding how to upgraded earlier QLogitechMediaServer installations before V1.07. So here will try to enplane how you could make it upgraded through the AppCenter from Qnap.
There are two ways you could try, the first is to get a nice clean installation. ( Which i suggest to do ) With the second you keep you're already installed QLogitechMediaServer, and after adjusting qpkg.conf will be part of the myapps from QnapClub myapps. [ The First solution, recommend so you get a nice and clean installation !] Logon to you're Qnap nas system by a ssh shell. Do [ cd /share/*/.qpkg/LogitechMediaServer/SlimServer ] then [ cp -R Cache /share/Multimedia/Cache ] ( will take awhile to get ready ), [ cp -R prefs /share/Multimedia/prefs ]. Now go to the AppCenter from Qnap, and uninstall QlogitechMediaServer, then reboot you're Qnap. ( just to be sure nothing is interferring ) No if you don't have the QnapClub appstore, look on the site 'https://www.qnapclub.eu' (https://www.qnapclub.eu/nl/howto/1) how to add it. Then go in the Appcenter, and QNap Club appstore, and look for qlogitechmediaserver, should be under the entertainment section. Install it from there, and when installed and running, do following. Logon to you're QNap nas system again by ssh shell, do [ cd /share/*/.qpkg/LogitechMediaServer/ ], [ ./LogitechMediaServer.sh stop ]. Then [ cp -R /share/Multimedia/Cache SlimServer/Cache/ ] , [ cp /share/Multimedia/prefs SlimServer/prefs ]. Now do [ ./LogitechMediaServer.sh restart ], which should give something like QLogitechMediaServer was already stopped. Also there will come a message "Starting LogitechMediaServer in Background", then its started running again. Be aware depending on how many plugins there are installed, can take a time, before you can access the webgui, some times several minutes. On a error messages do [ /bin/chown -R squeezeboxserver:everyone SlimServer/ ] and [ /bin/chmod -R 0775 SlimServer/ ] once again do [ ./LogitechMediaServer.sh restart ] Now you got a clean installation, which will get the upgraded through the appstore from QnapClub. So next time, can simply be upgraded through the webinterface from the Qnap AppCenter. [ The second way, where you leave the QLogitechMediaServer config as it is ] Make sure you got QnapClud appstore setup correctly in the Qnap AppCenter. 'https://www.qnapclub.eu' (https://www.qnapclub.eu/nl/howto/1) Logon to you're QNap nas system by ssh shell, do [ cd /etc/config ] First do [ cp qpkg.conf qpkg.conf.org ], to make a back if something went wrong ! Open qpkg.conf with you're favorite editor like vi/joe/jed/nano, and find the section under [LogitechMediaServer]. Then under the line Enable = TRUE, insert the line store = b23c4c609ac7b04f6b6595e9f6bec8c4. Now save the file, and go to the AppCenter from QNap, look under QnapClub myapps. There it should show-up, and can be upgraded through the webgui. After this upgrading gows through the webgui off Qnaps AppCenter, so no need to do some like this anymore. Keep in mind from now on, al the releases go through qnapclub.eu website and there appstore. Because for me its better to manage, and users easier to upgrade if a newer version is available. You could always download the latest version from there website, and do the manuele installation. I will even keep using the forums to inform when a newer version is available with a link to the file. And on any error while installing or startup, please read PLEASE-READ-FIRST.txt first and look at the logfiles and you're system setup. Most startup errors come from old installations from ssots/ssods or perl/optware-perl setups. ( Most of you tried strange thing, to get spotty to work ) Also if you copied back old Cache/prefs directories, and then startup give a error a corrupted plugin. Always tested it first before copying old settings back. A advise is maybe use 'QOptware-NG' (https://www.qnapclub.eu/nl/qpkg/550) as optware solution, i uses this now for a long time beside QLogitechMediaServer. Hope you will enjoy LogitechMediaServer, like i do on my Qnap again. And remember i tried to make a LogitechMediaServer installation, which completely depends on the QNap QTS. So it will survey a update/upgraded. LogitechMediaServer will be updated by the slimdevices website. If i look on many apps in the appstore, they all have a lot off own commands/proggies off there own. But i think that makes them vulnerable, because if one stops the support off supplied app, they could get a subject off infection. The QTS software will always be maintain by Qnap, so al the commands/proggies will be updated. * * maintainer of QLogitechMediaServer, QOptware-NG and QAutoSub. Qnap TS-453a, with LogitechMediaSever 7.9.1 ( with spotty and youtube ) Serval raspberry with hifiberry amp+ and picoreplayer. Love logitechmediaserver for it flexibel way, to play music from different sources.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ digimaster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66919 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108702 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
