No LMS Remote on Raspberry Pi - Pit Stop Plato - 24-Feb-2022

Hi there,

I've been mucking around with various hardware platforms and am trying to use both a Raspberry Pi 3 and Raspberry Pi 4 however I cannot seem to get the LMS Web / Remote control option when using the Raspberry Pi version.

I used Raspian 32bit as the base OS (latest version).

Am I missing something?

Screenshots attached.

Thanks in advance Smile

From a web browser, can you go to this URL and see if it works?

http://[ip_address]:9000

Change [ip_address] to the IP of your Snakeoil PC

No luck - error - connection refused. Like the service is non existent.

Can you run the installer again? And C&P the entire output here.

I am also facing the same issue. LMS not working on RPI4 8gb. raspbian lite installed and snakeoil 1.2.3

I'm using a RPi4 8GB as well and no problems with LMS.

Not entirely sure what's happening except I'm using the normal version of Raspbian though. Can you SSH into your Pi, and run the following and C&P the results?

Code:
sudo systemctl status logitechmediaserver

Also, run and see if will install anything, again cut and paste the output so I can see what's happening.
Code:
sudo apt-get install -f -y

This is so weird. 

Can you run 
Code:
sudo systemctl restart logitechmediaserver
And see if it still fails?

And then re-run to see if you get the same status as what you posted?
Code:
sudo systemctl status logitechmediaserver

Perhaps uninstall logitechmedia server by running the follow command, and re-run the snakeoil installer.
Code:
sudo apt purge logitechmediaserver -y


I'm going off to work now but so will check back later in a few hours.

Something ain't right obviously, but can't be certain what/why.. :/

Can you run the following in a SSH session?
Code:
sudo tail -n 100 /var/log/squeezeboxserver/server.log
You should get 100 lines of output (hopefully that'll be enough). Send me that output so I can see what it's not starting.

Also, can you run the following and tell me what it says?

Code:
lsb_release -a
