Problem: Firewall + spotify + update failure [solved but not all clear]
#1
Dear all,

(1) Connect via spotify to librespot

After the recent spotify completely drop out worldwide my clients were all thrown out. Using a snap client under linux to use moode's librespot as speaker was NOT possible afterwards ie. it did not show up as a valid speaker anymore. Same true for the official Android app.

No change after upgrade to 9.3.2 (see spearate notes below).

Doing quite some experiments it required me to put zerconf on a manual chosen port (used 9000 what was suggested) along with ufw. It could be mentioned it worked for 15 months after initial install without any error. ufw looks like now:

Code:
# ufw status
Status: active

To                         Action      From
--                         ------      ----
22/tcp                     ALLOW       Anywhere                  
80                         ALLOW       Anywhere                  
443                        ALLOW       Anywhere                  
4070                       ALLOW       Anywhere                  
6600                       ALLOW       Anywhere                                                   
5353                       ALLOW       Anywhere                                                    
9000                       ALLOW       Anywhere 

and it works again. Before it looked the same without port 9000. We talk of LAN and the same subnet of spotify client and moode with librespot. Maybe this can be mentioned somewhere in the install guide(s). Tbh I have no idea what caused it, because this happened only after the spotify crash recently.

On a different client (no fw enabled) it required at least to delete the credentials (one should note that spotify blocked my password and while trying to choose a new one it told me nevertheless that I cannot use the old one again, so it remembered it... it also removed family member accounts etc. so they really messed up).

(2) Along with that while trying to upgrade moode via web GUI

Did not work:

Code:
20250421 035741 updater: Start 2025-04-16 update for moOde
20250421 035741 updater: ** Step 01-27: Remove package hold
20250421 035742 updater: ** Step 02-27: Update package list
20250421 035805 updater: ** Step 03-27: Update Linux kernel to 6.12.20
20250421 035805 updater: ** - Updating...
20250421 035805 updater: ** - Prepare environment
20250421 035840 updater: ** - Install kernel
20250421 040039 updater: ** - Install custom drivers
20250421 040117 updater: ** - Complete
20250421 040117 updater: ** Step 04-27: Install moode-player=9.3.2-1moode1
20250421 040147 updater: ** Step failed
20250421 040147 updater: ** Exiting update
20250421 040147 updater: Install failed, update cancelled

Obviously it failed - however, going back to ssh and terminal using


Code:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-ugprade
reboot


that worked fine ie. no error whatsoever, but required quite some user interaction (to keep old and existent configs). If there are more logs on the system (where?) so you can see what went wrong via web UI compared to terminal I am happy to assist and send it. Please just tell what you need.

Great software!

best wishes!
