“Spotify resources and binary are out-of-sync. This should never happen.” #19

Hi!

I have two machines with the same kind of system: Mageia Cauldron, 64 bits. On one of them, the last spotify version works like a charm (installed with your spotify-make). But on the other one, after a fine installation with spotify-make, spotify cannot launch. I get this:

08:52:07.535 I [breakpad.cpp:107                ] Registered Breakpad for product: spotify

08:52:07.535 I [translate.cpp:140               ] Reloading language file

The only difference with the other machine is on this one, I’ve had installed a system spotify once. I’ve tried a make uninstall after a ./configure to delete some former libs of spotify which could be remaining on the system. I’ve even found and deleted every file containing the word spotify on my system, but still, I get the same error message.

Which files do I have to delete to be sure there is no conflict between the last spotify and the previous version?

I’ve also deleted ~/.local/share/spotify-client and ~/.cache/spotify*.

Thanks in advance for any help!

I have the same issue but I've never installed a system version, I've only ever installed with ./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr. Spotify works fine on my Fedora 18 machine, but now fails with this error on Ubuntu 10.04 after previous versions worked fine. I also tried using the --user option but got the same error. I don't have root access to try a system install. I've also tried deleting all the spotify directories I could find without any luck.

Same problem in mageia 3.

It’s very strange: I’ve just checked in “About Spotify” and the last Spotify version (0.9.4.183) works like a charm on one of my machines, as indicated in the original post (I mean: I confirm it’s really the last version). Guys, have you tried to install it in a new user account? I really don’t know the difference between the two machines… Any ideas to investigate?

ozky commented 10 years ago

Yes i have and still same problem.

Fedora have older version of spotify that's why it's working they have 0.9.1.55 so they don't have newest version of spotify. http://blog.ulyaoth.net/2012/03/01/spotify-for-linux-preview-installation-in-fedora/

Fedora does not have any non-ree software such as spotify in their repositories.

Before following that link be aware that using those binaries are breaking the spotify End User Agreement (EULA) which stipulates that re-distribution of the spotify package is not allowed.

Also, bear in mind that for what I can see ulyaoth's packages are built from my spec (and thus spotify-make) so they probably have the some problem(s)

I have found yet another problem with the directory layout and pushed some commits to master. To my regret, I managed to push a merge, forcing me to reset the repo.

Since I cannot reproduce these problems on my own I would appreciate if someone could test the new version.

ozky commented 10 years ago

Yes it's working again like a charm :) thx and my point was not to say that those are official fedora packages only to provide info that those are out of date packages and i know that their are breaking spotify licences.Fedora having only free software not even single closed pacakges in their repos.

tbigot commented 10 years ago

Yeah! You’re da best! ;) Thanks it works.

I still wonder why it worked on one of my machines…

leamas commented 10 years ago

And I wonder why it worked for me. In hindsight it shouldn't, for sure.

But: never trust something which works unless you have reviewed it!

Thanks to all of you for reporting and providing info.
