Logitech Media Server - Unable to delete the app
Hi there,
my setup comes from an older NAS Ultra2 with the logitech media server already installed.
So i moved everything successful to the 314 and still - everything is fine.
Just the logitech media server 1.0.6 from Poussin is not reachable anymore (right from the admin-page)
The system itself works fine. Each Client works and can access the music.
Now, i saw that there is a new version from "NAStools".
i wanted to try the new one - but i just can't delete the old one...
The 1.0.6 just won't deinstall.
I read in this forum that is it possible via SSH?
So i have a SSH Access - but i am really not into the stuff and have no clue with which commands i need to the rid of the old version.
Anyone with an idea or help with those SSH commands?
Problem Fixed.
installed this morning 6.5.0
Then i thought why not give it another try... and ...:
Voila: i could delete the app without any problems.
Nice version - the 6.5 :-)
Thanks for that!

Hi ThiloS,
Which Firmware are you on? Have you tried with other web browser/s?
Kind regards,

Firmware is 6.4.2
I am working with Chrome (right now 50.x)
But that doesn't seem the probleme. FIrefox and Edge doing just the same.
No matter which browser - It just says "Application is removed. This may take some time. Please be patient..." (in german - no clue what's the correct sentence in english : -)

There are two packages logitechmediaserver and lms. You'd need to remove them using apt-get. You could use a one line command to remove both at once.

Ok - so i was very brave and typed in the following...:
root@NAS:~# sudo apt-get remove logitechmediaserver
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package 'logitechmediaserver' is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 48 not upgraded.So either i am typing something wrong - or the RN doesn't find the App this way neither.
root@NAS:~# sudo apt-get remove lms
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package 'lms' is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 48 not upgraded.The same here...
