I worked through this process at the weekend before Roland0 made this
post. Just a couple of points:
0. You may need to install libexpat1-dev and nasm before you start.
1. Non-programmers (that's me) might be wondering why use "make
install-strip" instead just "make install" when building perl.
2. After the untar of logitechmediaserver-7.7.2-noCPAN.tgz. It's worth
checking that the files/dirs in the expanded tree have perms 755/644. I
believe this sets the correct perms:
Code:
--------------------
chmod -R u+rwX,go+rX,go-w /opt/logitechmediaserver-7.7.2-33893-noCPAN
--------------------
3. If you use, or copy as a different name, the standard debian
initscript saved from an existing LMS deb packag install, you could
alterantively simply edit two lines to read:
Code:
--------------------
DAEMON=/opt/logitechmediaserver-7.7.2-33893-noCPAN/slimserver.pl
DAEMON_SAFE=/opt/logitechmediaserver-7.7.2-33893-noCPAN/slimserver.pl
--------------------
4. It's not necessary to create a /etc/squeezeserver dir, as the files
that would exist there are all present under
/opt/logitechmediaserver-7.7.2-33893-noCPAN/
5. If you need to add a "squeezeboxserver" user, it needs to be added as
a system user, e.g:
Code:
--------------------
adduser --system --home /usr/share/squeezeboxserver --no-create-home --gecos
"Logitech Media Server" squeezeboxserver
--------------------
7. If you want to use LMS with squeezelite, I found the the
"squeezeboxserver" user needs to be added to the audio group:
Code:
--------------------
usermod -a -G audio squeezeboxserver
--------------------
8. It's worth checking you still have a functioning log rotate for this
version of LMS. You need to edit /etc/logrotate.d/logitechmediaserver:
change
Code:
--------------------
/bin/kill -USR1 `pgrep squeezeboxserve -n 2>/dev/null` 2>/dev/null || :
--------------------
to
Code:
--------------------
/bin/kill -USR1 `pgrep slimserver.pl -n 2>/dev/null` 2>/dev/null || :
--------------------
