Ok, I went back to basics and tried to install LMS 7.9.2-1 to CentOS 8
Fresh install of CentOS 8.1 as virtual machine. Small webserver, no GUI. Apply all updates. Then # wget http://downloads.slimdevices.com/LogitechMediaServer_v7.9.2/logitechmediaserver-7.9.2-1.noarch.rpm # dnf localinstall ./logitechmediaserver-7.9.2-1.noarch.rpm Automatically installs many required perl modules as expected. Disable firewalld.service to ensure no unwanted dropped packets. Stir and sweeten to taste and local conditions. # systemctl start logitechmediaserver.service Cannot start LMS. From the logs : Feb 22 13:14:33 localhost systemd[1]: Starting LSB: Startup script for the Logitech Media Server... Feb 22 13:14:33 localhost squeezeboxserver[8055]: Starting Squeezebox Server: Can't locate Slim/bootstrap.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Slim::bootstrap module) (@INC contains: /usr/libexec /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5) at /usr/libexec/squeezeboxserver line 169.

Located the bootstrap.pm in /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim/bootstrap.pm So made a symlink as # ln -s /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim LogitechMediaServer now working as intended. :-) Please, for any next time/s, is there a-better-way (tm) to do this ? And big thanks to the forum for all the helps. Edit. How do I add [SOLVED] to the original topic heading ?
