BTW, is there a mean to tell lms to use already installed packages (for example flac) rather than supplied 32 bits binaries ?

elb commented on 2014-10-21 10:11 (UTC)

In order to enable transcoding from anything to mp3 on the server (e.g. to stream to a smartphone over 3G), 32 bits compat libraries are necessary : pacman -S lib32-glibc pacman -S lib32-gcc-libs Indeed, lms includes 32 bits binaries for flac and others decoders. Could you add those libs as optional dependencies ?

Well, problem solved. TwoNotes has the solution. The execute privilege for everyone that was not set for the mounted raid1 volume containing the media folder (this x permission is not set for users directories in /home too, which seems obvious but I never paid attention with). Thanks to everyone for helping :)

stef.an, FWIW `su -s /bin/bash logitechms` does the same but without the add/removal of /bin/bash

If the server ist running as logitechms you could first try to get normal shell access to the folder. Give logitechms a bash (all as root, use the commands without the hash ;) # usermod -s /bin/bash logitechms test access # su logitechms # cd /home post a "ls -la" here # cd totof (what heppens? should give you access denied) remove the bash for security # usermod -s /bin/false logitechms

I had a problem like this - it was ignoring my library. I found that setting world read+execute privs recursively on the entire library fixed it. In particular, it needed the priv to read a directory, not just the files within the directory.

What user is the logitechmediaserver running as? If you're using the supplied systemd startup file the default is as 'logitechms' user and 'logitechms' group. Use that and all you probably need to do is add the logitechms user to your users group.

Hi guys, Sorry to come back with still the same issue. I have a laptop and an home server both with an up-to-date archlinux distribution. The logitechmediaserver package was installed in both computers. It appears fully functional on the laptop, but not in the home server. For this computer, the LMS server has never been able to access to media folders. The folders are not shown from the "browse" button. When I put the right folder manually and ask LMS to "rescan" the directory, here is what the scanner.log file tels to me : [14-09-22 14:44:30.5064] main::main (202) Starting Logitech Media Server scanner (v7.8.0, 1395409907, Thu Mar 27 13:31:59 PDT 2014) perl 5.020000 [14-09-22 14:44:31.0727] Slim::Music::Import::runImporter (488) Starting Slim::Media::MediaFolderScan scan [14-09-22 14:44:31.0735] Slim::Utils::Scanner::Local::rescan (174) Discovering audio files in /home/totof [14-09-22 14:44:31.0819] main::main (329) Error: Failed when running main scan: [/home/totof: Permission non accordée at /opt/logitechmediaserver/CPAN/File/Next.pm line 217. ] [14-09-22 14:44:31.0825] main::main (330) Error: Skipping post-process & Not updating lastRescanTime! "Permission non accordée" means that LMS cannot reach this folder because of a sort of permission granting issue but I'm really stuck here. My user "totof" is in the logitechms group, as with the laptop were everything works flawlessly. The folder I'm trying to reach belongs to the user "totof" with "users" as group. Any idea ?
