milhouse I will wait for the USB booting then. I was wondering if I can use the following method (I guess it should be faster):

1. Download RPi4 image and manually upgrade my RPi3 with it (update folder).
2. After rebooting my RPi3 should show the rainbow screen (firmware not right)
3. Activate USB boot on my RPi4 (when available)
4. Plug in my USB HDD in the RPi4 and cross fingers

What do you think?

I have ordered a RPi4. In the meantime I want to prepare for the upgrade.

Right now I am using LibreELEC 9.0.2 (RPi2.arm) on my RPi3. Only official addons and one docker image (domoticz).

The only thing that is not usual is that I am not using SD at all, the boot process is done entirely from my USB HDD (program_usb_boot_mode=1).

Please can you suggest the steps for migration once my RPi4 arrives?

Thanks!

Try with this Start and Stop:

Code

ExecStart=/storage/.kodi/addons/service.system.docker/bin/docker start -a domoticz
ExecStop=/storage/.kodi/addons/service.system.docker/bin/docker stop -t 2 domoticz

Yes, now it is wroking! Do you have any explanation for that?

Thanks anyway!

Then I can't help you anymore. I only create container and for me it runs fine after reboot too.

And how did you managed to run after reboot? autostart.sh or systemd.d? Can you share the contents of your system.d service file for domoticz?

Quote from vpeter

After you create domoticz container do you run it from console to initialize it? Because I can run it just fine.

Code

docker start domoticz

# look if completely started with
docker logs domoticz

Yes, after creating the container I run for the first time with "docker start domoticz".

Later, anytime I run from the console with "docker start domoticz" it works perfectly, that is why I do not know why is not working as a service.

Quote from vpeter

When creating docker try without --restart unless-stopped.

I have created the docker container removing that parameter but nothing changes.

It seems that domoticz is started but then somehow it exits/gets killed.

If I run the command "systemct start domoticz.service" and just after that I run "systemctl status domoticz" I get the following:

● domoticz.service - Domoticz Container

Just after that one I run the same command and I get:

And if I run the same command again:

● domoticz.service - Domoticz Container

May 22 10:25:09 kodi docker[2889]: domoticz

And domoticz container is not running ("docker ps -a"):

CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                  COMMAND             CREATED             STATUS                     PORTS               NAMES

What can I do?

Thanks!

Why don't you use the docker addon?

I am using docker as an addon, installed from Libreelec repository (service.system.docker).

I have found that there is a domoticz addon from Linuxserver repository, but I feel more confident managing docker from the command line.

Quote from vpeter

It starts for me fine. What was the command to create domoticz container?

docker create --name=domoticz -e PUID=0 -e PGID=0 -e TZ=Europe/Madrid -p 7070:8080 -p 6144:6144 -p 7443:1443 -v /storage/domoticz/:/config --device /dev/ttyACM0:/dev/ttyACM0 --restart unless-stopped linuxserver/domoticz

Hello I am trying to run domoticz on boot as a docker container, so I have the following "domoticz.service" file in /storage/.config/system.d

[Unit]
Description=Domoticz Container
Requires=service.system.docker.service
After=service.system.docker.service

[Service]
Restart=no
RestartSec=10s
TimeoutStartSec=0
ExecStart=/storage/.kodi/addons/service.system.docker/bin/docker start domoticz
ExecStop=/storage/.kodi/addons/service.system.docker/bin/docker stop domoticz

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

After a reboot the domoticz container starts (I can see it running from "docker ps" command), but after some seconds it suddenly stops. If I enable the parameter "Restart" to "Allways" the docker container keeps starting and stopping in a loop.

If I check the container logs with the command "docker logs domoticz", I get the following:

If I run the ExecStart command manually it works perfectly. What is wrong?

Thanks!

I am developing an add-on which needs to extract the subtitle file (srt) from a MKV file. In order to do so I would like to use the "mkvextract" command from MKVToolnix but I am not able to find a packaged that can work for Libreelec.

MKVToolNix Downloads – Matroska tools for Linux/Unix and Windows

Any suggestion on what to do?

Thanks in advance.

Apparently after enabling all of them everything works fine

Deleting the Database Addons27.db solved the issue.

After the reboot I have checked that all my add-ons are now disabled, just enabling them will be enough?

What are other consequences of deleting this file? Do I need to do anything else in order to get my add-ons work properly?

I am not using a SD card at all, not even for the boot. Both storage and boot are stored on an USB hard disk drive.

I am also considering a database corruption (as the Clean Video Library command got frozen and a reboot was needed). Can I just delete the Video database and force a rebuild? If so, which files do I need to remove from the database folder? Do I need to do anything else?

If the above does not work, is it possible to do a fresh install maintaining my video and music files? And maintaining my add-ons settings?

Thanks!

My setup was working fine for almost 1 year but suddenly today a Clean Library command got freezed. I had to reboot the RPi3 from SSH and now Kodi crashes repeatedly.

This is the kodi.log

Same situation, I am on Libreelec 8.90.007

"libretro compatibility is not compatible with this version of Kodi"

Hi,

I am planning to use the option on the RPi3 to boot directly from an external 2.5" USB HDD (no SD at all) and I am wondering if it is possible to prepare the HDD just using the LE USB-SD creator utility.

What I am planning to do is:

1. Activate the bit (program_usb_boot_mode=1) with a bootable SD
2. Prepare the HDD with the USB-SD creator utility
3. change config.txt to point to sda on boot

I am right? Do I need to do anyhing else?

Thanks!
