I have to apologise for my somewhat remiss belief that Squeezelite
should autostart in Ubuntu. Well of course it does, but fails (exits)
because LMS starts after Squeezelite :confused:
Today I looked at my Linux Mint istallation and decided to update to the
latest version (my current one is going EOL in March)
I performed the upgrade and installed LMS and Squeezelite.
Then I found I had the same problem as yourself (I must have either
solved this before or got confused with an Ubuntu install I tried a
couple of years ago)
Anyway, I will have "humble pie" for tea

I did some searching on the internet and could not find a way to reolve
the startup situation, maybe delaying LMS, or setting a "wait for
network" command is the way, but it takes a lot of time to find the
correct method and I'm an old dog and it is only a backup device I want
to keep running.
I remembered something I had configured for a poster on another forum,
and here it is.:)
It works on my Linux Mint and should on your Ubuntu (if you care to try)
SSH into Ubuntu
type
Code:
--------------------
sudo crontab -e
--------------------
append this line to the bottom of the file
Code:
--------------------
@reboot sleep 20 && sudo /usr/local/bin/restart.sh
--------------------
Save and exit with ctrl + x, followed by y when prompted to save, and
then Enter
then make this file
type
Code:
--------------------
sudo nano /usr/local/bin/restart.sh
--------------------
enter text
Code:
--------------------
#!/bin/bash
sudo /etc/init.d/squeezelite restart
--------------------
Save and exit with ctrl + x, followed by y when prompted to save, and
then enter
make the file executable
Code:
--------------------
sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/restart.sh
--------------------
Reboot with
Code:
--------------------
sudo reboot
--------------------
The "sleep 20" in the crontab boot line is the number of seconds to wait
before actioning the command, if you wish to try a shorter time, then
just adjust the number :)
