Using a Raspberry Pi 3B+ on Rasp OS lite 64bit Followed the howtohifi guide but when I try to start Plexamp on the pi with “node plexamp/js/index.js” I get the following in the terminal window with no response: Starting Plexamp 4.11.2 Settings: Parsing 23012 bytes into JSON for discovery:hubs. P…

there’s another guide that shows how to autostart Plexamp when the Pi turns on … sounds like you still might need to set up the service starting manually while logged in is good for first run, but as you’ve observed, closing the terminal will also close Plexamp

I’ve been using odinb’s script to install/update plexamp headless for many, many versions without issue, but as of 4.11.2, I can see that plexamp.service is running, but I can’t access the webui unless I start Plexamp manually (and, obviously, it doesn’t persist if I close my SSH session). Any ideas…

Hi! Works on my setup! Have you changed user for the install when upgrading? What does “systemctl status plexamp” and “cat /etc/systemd/system/plexamp.service” give? For the service it should be running as the user it was installede for, and same thing for the service file, it should reflect the …

Works on my setup! Congrats. Here’s the output of systemctl status: ● plexamp.service - Plexamp Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/plexamp.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Wed 2024-10-02 20:21:29 BST; 18h ago Main PID: 525 (node) Tasks: 16 (limit: 1069) C…

WorkingDirectory and ExecStart should both have /home before /dietpi … maybe it got removed unintentionally while updating, else i’m not sure how it would have worked before

Hmm, that was previously a quirk of DietPi (no /home directory), so maybe something in the OS has changed. That never would have worked before, but it seems to have fixed my problem for now. Thanks.

Funny enough, this doesn’t seem to work on another instance on an RPi Zero 2: ● plexamp.service - Plexamp Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/plexamp.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Thu 2024-10-03 10:51:09 EDT; 5h 23min ago Main PID: 405 (node) Tasks: 16 (limi…

Nope, the logs only show entries from back in September. :man_shrugging:

Ah, you do not run RaspbianOS! That was not mentioned when you stated you used the script to install/upgrade! Well, the script is not actively maintained for Dietpi, since I run RaspbianOS on my Pis. Let me see if I can get some time to re-verify it on Dietpi! Dietpi is best effort for the script,…
