    Hi

    I am trying a complete fresh install on Raspberry pi 2, Wetterott 2.8″ tft and IQaudio DAC+.

    I dl’d m2p_rpi_2.2, burnt sd card. Booted, Expanded file system, updated max2play, now showing v2.24
    installED LMS Server, raspberry pi settings AND rasperry pi display.

    All works so far!, I can play music out of the dac, from my music disk OK.

    However jIVELITE WILL NOT INSTALL.

    i DL’D the plugin, it is active, but when I click on install in the jivelite page, a yellow box appears saying installion started and the date and time appears thus:- 2015-11-02 19:53:02|

    The screen flashes every few seconds but NOTHING else changes or appears in the yellow box.

    I can leave it for an hour, nothing happens!… if I restart the installation after a few seconds I get the message „Something went wrong deleting progree file“

    I have downloaded jivelite plugin again still same restult.

    Nothing is printed in the debug box. If I look at /opt. there is NO jivelite directory.

    It appears that the Max2play web control is NOT starting the jivelite install script.

    What can I do to correct this?

    regards

    Patrick

    I also cannot install Jivelite on a fresh install (updated to the latest version).
    However, I’m having a different issue: after pressing the install button, it loads and runs through the entire install process, even saying that it has completed the install succesfully. Howevr, if I reload the page, it says that Jivelite is not installed. I’ve tried installing it again – same process.
    However, I have noticed that during the install, it throws up an error:

    Cloning into 'jivelite'...
error: Failed connect to github.com:443; No route to host while accessing https://github.com/ralph-irving/jivelite.git/info/refs
fatal: HTTP request failed
/opt/jivelite/jivelite/src/resize.c: No such file or directory

    So, I decided to check if that link was correct, and it took me to a page with the error:

    Please upgrade your git client.
GitHub.com no longer supports git over dumb-http: https://github.com/blog/809-git-dumb-http-transport-to-be-turned-off-in-90-days

    Is there any way I can fix this? Or do I have to wait for a new release?
    Many thanks.

    EDIT: Ah, given the age of the URL the error page links to, I realise that the error page only appeared because I was accessing the link shown in the Jivelite install log using a web browser (of course).
    Any other thoughts? Given I’ve installed it four times now, and I can access github using my browser, I doubt it’s due to my (admittedly unreliable) internet connection.

    So, it turns out I can’t reach github from my Raspberry Pi – pings fail.
    Digging a little deeper, someone mentioned that it could very well be related to my netmask setting (as per https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=91&t=48866). Indeed, as github is a 192.x.x.x address, if my netmask was 255.0.0.0, then it would assume that github was on my local network.
    Indeed, taking a look at the WIFI/LAN settings page I see that my netmask is 255.0.0.0
    I had the option to „Set fixed LAN IP-Address (eth0)“ enabled, and disabling this option set the net mask back to the correct 255.255.255.0
    I can now reach github. Hooray!

    hi superpat,
    please make sure, before installing Jivelite, that the filesystem has been expanded (less than 50 percent used in the debug info under „Settings/Reboot“) and that you do not have any other hardware connected to the Pi since this interferes with the power supply for the installation.
