The workaround for the Spotify third party plugin being discussed is to add your user name to the service file and then to add your username to group logitechms. The Spotify third party plugin will then work, allowing Spotify to be run on legacy Squeezebox equipment (the Spotify plugin only works with newer equipment, such as the UE radio).

jcharbar: Can you be more specific about your workaround? I remove the --user option and add the User and Group options with logitechms, but still cannot get Help App to run. Are you saying that I should be using root for User? My user name? Thanks.

jcharbar: From what you are saying, it seems the Spotify plugin is at fault: it should not need its user/group to be enforced by a kernel cgroup (which is what systemd uses with User= and Group=) and should work out-of-the-box with logitechmediaserver's --user option. You should report this issue upstream and have it fixed there.

I installed Triode's Spotify Logitech media server plugin and it fails to work when LMS uses the "--user=" option. I had to switch systemd's "User=" and "Group=" to get it working. This could also be an issue for other LMS plugins.

This is not really required: instead of having systemd run logitechmediaserver as a specific user/group, we currently let the daemon drop root privileges itself (the --user= option). An alternative could probably be to remove that option and rely on systemd's User= and Group=, but I have not tested it and am not sure what the advantages would be.

Looks like the logitechmediaserver.service file is missing User and Group i.e. [Unit] Description=Logitech Media Server Daemon After=network.target [Service] User=logitechms Group=logitechms PIDFile=/var/run/lms.pid WorkingDirectory=/opt/logitechmediaserver ExecStart=/opt/logitechmediaserver/slimserver.pl \ --prefsdir /opt/logitechmediaserver/prefs \ --cachedir /opt/logitechmediaserver/cache \ --logfile /opt/logitechmediaserver/Logs/slimserver.log \ --user logitechms [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

Thanks Farfaday.

This package needs wget for installing.

nemster: This package provides /opt/logitechmediaserver/Bin/i386-linux/flac, and optionally depends on lib32-glibc and lib32-gcc-libs on x86_64. That should be plenty to get flac/aac/... playback to work.

So, after a lot of fiddling I could get the package to build again and I have music again! Since I didn't really have that much knowledge about what I did and to not to clutter things here I could open a forum thread if there is interest.
