.Net Core runtime and Emby

    Hi.

    First, thank you @awiouy for the effort.
    I'm on LE9 on a rock64 (aarch64) device, and testing image.

    Unfortunatly, I think I'm missing the mono part.

    Any chance to find it somewhere?

    tools.dotnet-runtime reports

    ./le_dotnet: line 8: dotnet: not found

    Thank you for taking the time.

    which dotnet returns nothing. So ldd $(which dotnet) fails with ldd: $missing file arguments.

    But since you're talking about dotnet-runtime, it's indeed in /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin/dotnet-runtime-2.1.2

    I guess it is the /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin/dotnet script which fails.

DOTNET_SYSTEM_GLOBALIZATION_INVARIANT="1" \
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$ADDON_DIR/libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" \
dotnet "$@"

    $PATH doesn't include /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin/dotnet-runtime-2.1.2

    Code
    # echo $PATH
/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/storage/.kodi/addons/service.emby/bin:/storage/.kodi/addons/service.system.docker/bin:/storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin:/storage/.kodi/addons/tools.ffmpeg-tools/bin

    And I can see /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin/dotnet-runtime-2.1.2/dotnet doesn't have execution set either.

    A workaround is to soft link dotnet bin, and add execution. But I guess that's not the regular way.

    Code
    # chmod +x /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin/dotnet-runtime-2.1.2/dotnet
# ln -s /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin/dotnet-runtime-2.1.2
/dotnet /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin

    PATH includes /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin ;)

    The question is now: is dotnet executable and if not, why?

    Yes. /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin is indeed in PATH

    But /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin/dotnet-runtime-2.1.2 doesn't.

    So, le_dotnet script can't find dotnet executable.

    Either add /dotnet-runtime-2.1.2 to le_dotnet script. Or add it to PATH

    Or that's behond my linux knowledge.

    And, no /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin/dotnet-runtime-2.1.2/dotnet doesn't have execution permission by default when I installed addon.

    hm...

    No idea why dotnet ends up in dotnet-runtme-2.1.2, it should be in /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin.

    Move it there to fix you issue.

/dotnet /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.dotnet-runtime/bin

    I did it with soft link.
    Works pretty well once all in place.
    Way better than docker did, before it broke completely.

    Thank you again.

    Hi awiouy! Is it possible to use emby with dotnet on 8.2.5 generic ? Server has updated to 3.2.34.0 but I still couldn't connect with mono.


    edit: Well it's working now with mono ;) Sorry awiouy! Just answer if dotnet can be used with 8.2.5 please :)

    LibreELEC development has shifted from 8.2 to 9.0.

    .Net Core Runtime and Emby could be backported to LibreELEC 8.2,5, but it would take me more time to do that (backport, build, test, etc.) than for you to upgrade to LibreELEC 9.0.

    Quote from awiouy

    No system information, no log (journalctl -u service.emby)

    How do you expect anyone to help you?

    Sorry for being not informative. I just saw above comments about .net issue and will try to correct the error.


    Edited: As I saw the log that it's about dotnet error. So I tried soft link method as mentioned in above comments. And It's running ok now.

    I will definitely provide log next time. Thanks.
