I started noticing that Pandora wasn't working anymore after I upgraded
my Ubuntu server with an SSD drive. The super-fast bootup must be
outpacing the network acquisition, because doing a service restart
solves the issue as is mentioned here on this thread.
To get around having to do a manual restart every bootup, I modified
/usr/sbin/squeezeboxserver as follows:
Code:
--------------------
sub init {
...
$log->error("Starting Logitech Media Server (v$VERSION, $REVISION,
$BUILDDATE) perl $]");
### BEGIN DNS HACK
# Wait for mysqueezebox.com to be available to avoid a DNS issue that
# otherwise requires a manual restart of the service to get Apps working.

$log->error("Delaying to workaround DNS issue...");
my $MAX_DNS_ATTEMPTS = 7;
my $dnsRetryWait = 1;
my $dnsAttemptCount = 0;
for (;;) {
$log->error("Pinging mysqueezebox.com...");
system("ping", "-c", "1", "mysqueezebox.comm");
if ($? == 0) {
$log->error("mysqueezebox.com is there!");
last;
}
$log->error("mysqueezebox.com isn't there");
if (++$dnsAttemptCount == $MAX_DNS_ATTEMPTS) {
$log->error("Proceed without mysqueezebox.com connectivity");
last;
}
$log->error("Sleeping $dnsRetryWait seconds...");
sleep $dnsRetryWait;
$dnsRetryWait *= 2;
}
### END DNS HACK

I realize this thread is old, and SB is no longer supported, but maybe
this will help somebody.
