Logitech Media Server by Super-Poisson not compatible with 6.6.0
In addition to the NasTools version the Super-Poisson version 1.0.6 does not work after upgrading to 6.6.0.
Hi again!
Just updated my main NAS and LMS works.
Updated from
RN202 6.5.2
Latest nighly LMS
Poussin LMS 1.0.9
Did this.
1. Backup.
2. Install 6.6.0
3. From ssh command line
wget http://server.vijge.net/static/squeezebox/arm-linux-gnueabi-thread-multi-64int.tar.gz
tar -xf arm-linux-gnueabi-thread-multi-64int.tar.gz -C /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/5.20
4. Stream music from LMS.
I can confirm that it works for me on my RN104 as well.
To summarize:
- Install nightly LMS (in Apps tab > Upload)
run in SSH: wget http://server.vijge.net/static/squeezebox/arm-linux-gnueabi-thread-multi-64int.tar.gz
then tar -xf arm-linux-gnueabi-thread-multi-64int.tar.gz -C /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/arch/5.20
- Install lms_1.0.9_all.deb Iin Apps tab > Upload)
- Switch on LMS in Apps
That's all!
I could use some help to get things done..
What is 1. install nightly LMS?
Do you mean to install something during the night? Why and where do you do this?
I activated SSH but to be honest, I do not know what I am doing. I am just a novice user. Once activated, where to find it?
And what does "wget" mean?
ABNL, thank you for reminding folks that these are meant to be consumer devices.
"Nightly" is the most current build of the Logitech Media Server (LMS). Basically, every night a version of the LMS with all the day's changes is compiled and released for download. You can view them via the Web here.
Once you have activated SSH, you will need a terminal application (such as Terminal on macOS, or Putty for Windows). Using this, you can access the command line interface (CLI) of the ReadyNAS and type in text commands. To access the CLI, you'll need to type ssh root@[your ReadyNAS' IP address] and then enter your admin password. Typically, your ReadyNAS IP address will be something like 192.168.1.2, in which case you'd type ssh root@192.168.1.2
wget is another executable command you have to type in the CLI once you've accessed your ReadyNAS via SSH.
Does that make sense? You can really do a lot of damage via the command line, so please triple-check the step-by-step instructions others have provided above before actually typing anything in.
First of all: both of you (nsne and ABNL) are right that a (small) NAS is a consumer device and that it should work and be maintained (by its owner) easily.
But you have tio remember that this means that some people have to dig deep to clear errors and/or fix bugs. That is what we were doing here.
Of course there should be a manufacturer-based solution, be it by Netgear or the makers of the add-on packages. But Super_Poussin asked for input, whiich he got. So a more userfriendly soluition is probably on the way, in the form of a new firmware or new add-ons.
Thank You HWStigter!
i have the RN102 and got that working as well.
i followed your instructions to the letter and I now have a perfecly working Squeezebox server again,
Thanks also to Super Poussin for providing LMS-1.0.9.
Cheers!
Hi,
Just curious...
Have the recent successful installers jumped directly to the new nightly LMS, which includes the perl-5.20-armel.modules?
So can someone confirm installing the nightly won't mess up the LMS for those who purged the old LMS and installed the package manually.
Thanks for your help

I installed the latest nightly over the manually installed LMS and it worked.
