"Couldn't resolve IP address for: www.mysqueezebox.com" on plugins page

[RichKS]

I am experiencing what appears to be a DNS issue with this software. I have already searched the forums and none of the sultions I have found work.

I go to the Plugins page. At the top I see:

Bad repository http://www.mysqueezebox.com/public/plugins/logitech.xml - Couldn't resolve IP address for: www.mysqueezebox.com

Bad repository http://www.mysqueezebox.com/public/plugins/other.xml - Couldn't resolve IP address for: www.mysqueezebox.com

Bad repository http://triodeplugins.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repo.xml - Couldn't resolve IP address for: triodeplugins.googlecode.com

Bad repository http://www.mysqueezebox.com/public/p...repository.xml - Couldn't resolve IP address for: www.mysqueezebox.com

DNS works fine on the server. If I click the links in the error I see the XML of the repo. I can log in to MySqueezebox.com with a browser.

I have re started the service several times.
I have re started the server several times.
I have tried various IP configs (DHCP/Static/Open DNS/My ISP's DNS etc) and NOTHING appears to change this behaviour.

Server is running Linux Mint. I recently re-built, and this was running fine before. Since the re-build, I get this error.

Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong?

Hello - my first posting/reply so hopefully I've done it correctly

It's a minor problem with Linux Mint. I had the same issue with a new install of Mint 13.

I can't post a link as this is my first post. Google sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf and it's near the top on the Mint Forums

In summary run sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf in a terminal and reboot should solve the problem

Thanks a lot, had the same problem and this solved it.

Veggen,

I had this problem for probably a year. I was ready to ditch my 4 or 5 squeezeboxes. Finally, I found your link to the Mint forums. That fixed it! I am forever grateful. I'm posting the essence of http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopi...03835&p=590881 here just in case that post/site ever goes down.

I did an sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf

I think the idea is to create a /etc/resolv.conf file. Not sure why. But this started a console process. When asked if I wanted to merge the existing contents into the new file, I said no. Not sure if that was the right answer, so far I've had no ill-effects.

Here's my environment:

Logitech Media Server Version: 7.7.2 - r33893 @ Wed Mar 14 05:46:46 PDT 2012
Hostname: tv-server
IP: 127.0.0.1
HTTP Port: 9000
OS: Debian - EN - utf8
Platform: i686-linux
Perl Version: 5.14.2 - i686-linux-gnu-thread-multi-64int
Database Version: DBD::SQLite 1.34_01 (sqlite 3.7.7.1)
Total Players Recognized: 4

Restarting logitech media server after boot -- as most people recommend -- had no effect. Moreoever, logitech media server was the only process complaining about DNS problems.

Thanks!

I have installed a new server and I got the same problem when trying to listen to Podcasts/Internet radio. I started to compare the 2 servers (Mac Mini's).
Using mysqueezebox.com I have installed the podcast app (visible on my Squeezebox Radio) but on the new server in LMS there also was a plugin called Podcasts that was listed under active Plugins - this plugin had been disable on the old server.
As soon as I disabled the Podcast plugin in LMS the problem was solved !!

I just got this issue again (I think after a restart of my Mac mini).
This time I solved it by enabling the "podcast" plugin from the under Inactive Plugins on LMS !

I have the same problem on ubuntu 12.10 32bit.
The "http://triodeplugins.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repo.xml" shows up perfect in the browser, but not through LMS 7.7.2.

Any suggestions how to fix it?
I did an "sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf", but it dit not fix it

Do you have a /etc/resolv.conf file?

[eMTeaM10]

Do you have a /etc/resolv.conf file?

Yes, but I don't know if it was created now, or if it was there from the beginning, anyway, it looks like this:
(the /etc/resolv.conf is just a link to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf)

# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.1.1
search eMTeaLAN

Check the last modified and created timestamps. Mine looks like this:

# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.0.1

I would try

sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf

again and again, trying with each option (there aren't many as I recall). Reboot after each and see if it works.
