Logitech Media Server and Firmware 6.5.0 on ARM

Hi Everyone,

 

I've been using Poussin's Logitech Media Server (version 1.0.6) on my ReadyNAS for almost a couple of years now. I've updated the NAS firmware over the lasyt few months and all *had* been fine - still worked fine. Great application.

 

I was advised (by Netgear) recently to update to firmware version 6.5.0 and now my Media server doesn't work. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but the NAS now tells me that the application is incompatible - so I can't install it! I tried installing the NASTOOLS (ARM version) instead - but that won't install either! 

 

I use the media server with two Slimserver devices in the house and no longer have access to any music!  It's very frustrating.

 

Anyone know how I can re-instate this? I'm pretty sure I can't go back to the previous firmware without losing data on my NAS - which I don't want to risk. So what do I do???  Aaargh!

 

What I don't understand is why the NASTOOLS one won't install. It should do as far as I can understand. Am I being really dumb here?

  • Sorted it.

     

    My NAS is connected using a static address. I found that it was using an old DNS entry. Once I corrected that all worked fine! I aimagine it's something to do with dependencies and checking them online for the app you're trying to install. I updated the DNS setting, re-booted and both of the apps I was trying to install were there and already installed once the NAS had booted! 

     

    Luckily it wasn't anything serious. :)
