LOGITECH MEDIA SERVER webinterface failed

[nico louis]

Hi all

I installed music4lox already a couple of times and did work every time. But in my latest intallation the LMS webinterface failed.

So i have a fresh laptop, nothing on, installed ubuntu server from the website, did not update. v16.04.6
i installed it in deutch and did configure as the help.
i got the script and installed it from music-server.net
then i can login to the ms4L but in status it already tells me that the webinterface link is broken to LMS (Version: 7.9.2~1565679430)

in the log of lms is something:
warning read_dir /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache/templates - opendir no such file or directory at usr/share/perl5/slim/web/template/skinmanager.pm

do i mis something?
i already reinstalled everything 3 times but exactly same outcome.

any help would be appriciated

kind regards

had to create the file myself

mkdir folder name
su-
chmod 777

did solve it

[nico louis]

it looks like my squeezelite user can't get into the home folder so i think it is a global user permission setting somehow

Your Problem is fixed in the last Verion of LMS

Fix #276 - don't try to read cache folder before it's been created
