Installation of Logitech Media Server 7.7.5 fails on ReadyNAS NVX
I have a ReadyNAS NVX (Model RNDX4250) on which I have been using Logitech Media Server (formerly Squeezecenter) for some 6 years. I was experiencing some difficulties in syncing the software with i...
Understood. I have raised a new topic entitled: "LMS iTunes integration failing under version 7.9".
As for the solution to my installation problem I believe it was twofold:
a) Need to update RAIDiator to 4.2.30.
b) Need to use LMS version 7.9.
What about 7.9?
I guess it's possible new builds haven't been tested on the NVX. The NVX is 32-bit whereas the Pro is 64-bit.
Or the issue could be something else. Does everything else work fine?
Which firmware are you running?
Thanks for the rapid response.
1, "What about 7.9?" - If I go to http://www.mysqueezebox.com/download and choose "Netgear ReadyNAS Pro/Ultra/NVX" it gives me version 7.7.5.
2. Everything else on the NVX was, and is working fine.
3. I'm using RAIDiator 4.2.26. I've tried upgrading to 4.2.30 but when I upload and verify the image I receive the error: "Update file is not valid for this architecture". (The zip file was downloaded from http://downloadcenter.netgear.com/, for product RNDX4250.)
4. I meant to mention that the NVX log shows that the new version of Squeezecenter was successfully installed. However it stil does not show in the list of Streaming Services.

LMS 7.9 can be downloaded from here: http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.9
Make sure you take the right version for your NAS.
3. You did, extract the contents of the zip file and upload RAIDiator-x86-4.2.30, right? If so, it sounds like your 4GB root partition may be full.
OMG! I guess I must have clicked on the zip file rather than the extracted version when I tried before. (Shows how much of a panic I was in.) I now have version 4.2.30 installed.
Thanks for the hint. :|
OK, I have followed your link and chosen the version marked: "NETGEAR ReadyNAS Pro Installer Package (i386)". This gave me the file: logitechmediaserver-7.9.0-1475243668-i386-readynas.bin.
Ran a local update process with this file. System log reports: "The Logitech Media Server add-on has been successfully installed". I then rebooted my NVX.
Result: The list of Streaming Services does NOT show LMS/SqueezeCenter.
Hello Tradewind25,
I'm not sure if you have already tried the steps at http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Logitech_Media_Server_on_ReadyNAS.
