After installing Volumio 2.296 - Missing Dependancy loibatmoic.so.1 for Snapclient Service to Start

[yayabobo]

Just an FYI - after installing the latest Volumio patch (2.296) none of my snapclients would start - was missing loibatmoic.so.1 library dependency and got code=exited status=127. This happened on all systems.

Ran sudo apt-get install apt-file and then followed the instructions to fix broken dependencies, rebooted, all worked fine.

Just in case anyone else sees it

[Saiyato]

Was this just after updating or also when using the image?

I'm not sure I can force the update of dependencies after Volumio updates.

On a fresh install of 2.296, I am unable to install the plugin with following error:

Please provide more info, which version are you using for example? What platform and which other plugins are installed?

@Saiyato Apologies my installation error seems unrelated. I was able to reproduce the libatomic error with snapclient with a fresh image, and the solution posted above worked to resolve it.

Raspberry Pi Zero W Volumio 2.296 latest snapcast plugin (1.2.3 master)

volumio@stereo:~$ sudo apt-get install apt-file

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 apt-file : Depends: libconfig-file-perl but it is not going to be installed
            Depends: libapt-pkg-perl but it is not going to be installed
            Depends: liblist-moreutils-perl but it is not going to be installed
            Depends: libregexp-assemble-perl but it is not going to be installed
 snapclient : Depends: libatomic1 (>= 4.8) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

apt-get -f install resolves it and everything works as it should after.

Same thing on a fresh install of Volumio on a RPi3

[Saiyato]

apt-get -f is performed on line 19 of the installscript. I'm not saying you aren't experiencing the problem, just that you have a different setup than other users (not experiencing this problem).

install script: https://github.com/Saiyato/volumio-snapcast-plugin/blob/master/install.sh

I can't reproduce your problem.

Can you please post the journal of the installation so I can see what is happening?

Hello I'm getting errors as well. This is what I get from the terminal:

Hope this helps?

Hi, I have a fresh install of 2.296 on a Pi3 and I had a similar issue upon install of your plugin, neither the server nor the client would start. I was not able to fix using apt-get -f install at first, but that was because I noobed it and didn't first run apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade. Once I took care of those two I was able to successfully install the dependencies and everything worked! not sure if that helps at all. But that was my experience.

[Saiyato]

You shouldn't (have to) dist-upgrade, this might brick you installation. As for the apt-get update; this has probably been the problem all along, since apt-get -f install was in there from the beginning. I never had this problem, because it's never the first plugin I install.

Will patch in a bit.

[Saiyato]

Should be patched now

[steubens]

@Saiyato perhaps I needed only to run apt-get update, then apt-get -f install would have worked? I'm just so used to doing them both all the time, I guess I didn't try just the update and not the dist-upgrade. Thanks for the heads up about the brick possibility. I will avoid manual updates in the future.

[Saiyato]

Hi, yes, sorry for the late reply; performing apt-get update and apt-get -y -f install should've fixed your problem. If you omit the -y parameter, you need to manually confirm you want to install the missing package(s).

Hi,

I'm new to Volumio and Snapcast etc, so this may be a simple fix.

I seem to be having a similar problem. I have a RPi3b+ as a server and client, and the same as a client. Both work perfectly well independently, with both being able to access my NAS and Spotify.

However, I haven't been able to sync music from the server to the client at all. I've searched the forums etc and found people with similar problems, but not the same. I've reinstalled on both several times with the same results.

my results from

systemctl status snapclient.service`

are as follows:-

`snapclient.service - Snapcast client Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/snapclient.service; disabled) Active: active (running) since Thu 2018-11-15 12:22:58 UTC; 2h 0min ago Process: 1191 ExecStart=/usr/bin/snapclient -d $USER_OPTS $SNAPCLIENT_OPTS (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 1192 (snapclient) CGroup: /system.slice/snapclient.service └─1192 /usr/bin/snapclient -d --user snapclient:audio -d -h 127.0....

Hint: Some lines were ellipsized, use -l to show in full.`

Does the loaded line where it says the client is disabled the issue? Or is it the exception in controller etc the issue, or none or all of the above?

Even if it is these, I don't know how to correct this.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. Wingnuts
