This has me stumped! Fresh install of pCP8 (64 bit) on a 4GB Raspberry Pi4. Booting from a 32GB USB drive, with a (big) third partition created by pCP to hold the cache and prefs folders. I'm unable to load ANY plugins.
When I select, for instance, Spotty from the 3rd party plugins list, then click apply, there is a wait of a few seconds (presumably while the plugin downloads) then a prompt to restart LMS. After the restart, Spotty isn't installed, but now appears at the top under 'Updated plugins available'. If I select it, then Apply, then restart, it just stays there in the 'Updated plugins available' list. If I restart LMS from the pCP interface, Spotty is now back in the 3rd party plugins list (and not installed). If I monitor the cache folder during this process, at no point can I see any sign of Spotty in DownloadedPlugins, InstalledPlugins, tmp etc. Where should I expect to find the files are downloaded to before the restart installs them? I seem to recall an earlier discussion about delaying the restart long enough for the files to actually download, so I've tried that too - still no sign of anything being downloaded. For info I'm on a fast fibre broadband connection, with the RPi wired to the router. And I know the cache folder is setup with the right permissions etc (all defaults, as created by pCP), because the music scan completed without error, creating big library.db and artwork.db files. Everything was working perfectly until yesterday, when I think a router restart while playing a list of Spotify tracks may have somehow corrupted the LMS cache (? clutching at straws here for an explanation!), meaning that I could no longer play Spotify tracks. I started by simply restoring the slimserver folder from a recent backup, but then I noticed that Spotty started to give me the 'failed to get token' warning (don't recall the exact wording). So for troubleshooting I decided to try a completely fresh pCP install, expecting it to be a simple case of reinstalling all my plugins, or even copying the cache over once I've figured out what's going on with Spotty. But now I'm in this novel position where no plugins at all will install. I've been using LMS and pCP for years, and am quite familiar with the process, but maybe the flawless operation of my main server in recent times has made me a bit rusty. What am I doing wrong?! Why can't I install plugins? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115397 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
