LOGITECH MEDIA SERVER UBUNTU HOW TO
I upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 and that broke my installation but I figured out how to make it work again:Īfter some tempering around, I considered to do a fresh install.

Then I got me a fresh deb-packet for version 8.0 (beta) from: So I deleted the old stuff in /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/ Logitech media server forums how to# Same goes for the stuff in /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/ chown squeezeboxserver:squeezeboxserver /var/lib/squeezeboxserverĬhown -R squeezeboxserver:squeezeboxserver /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/* Usermod -a -G squeezeboxserver squeezeboxserverĬreate a directory for the pid file: mkdir /var/run/logitechmediaserverĪnd give it to that user and group: chown squeezeboxserver:squeezeboxserver /var/run/logitechmediaserver If the dpkg installation not already added a user and group please do so: adduser squeezeboxserver Personally I used the most plattform version but depending on plattform just select a fitting deb: wget ĭpkg -i logitechmediaserver_8.0.0_1588799628_all.debĪs I tried older versions too and even tried a git checkout I hope I lack no detail another script has already done for me without noticing it. The problem comes with the startup script in /etc/init.d. It simply does not work, as Ubuntu 20.04 does not have the start-stop-daemon any more. It is simply linked to /bin/true which might work for some scripts but does not work for the logitechmediaserver.
