2.598 (26-07-2019) breaking on Raspi 1

[jonas18z]

Can I downgrade from terminal och do I need to reflash my card with a older version?

@sonoskiller: thanks (your were faster), hope we really nailed the issue...

It just took out my Pi Zero too via menu update.

I'll roll back to 2.586 for now until it's fixed.

Editted to add - back up and running again, and (presumably) thanks to the newish account set-up, even set itself up once reconnected.

After installing version 2.599, volumio works again fine on my Pi Zero

I can confirm 2.599 working ok on Raspberry Pi Model B Rev 2 (000d).
thanks for the fix.

Many things broken in the latest release (2.599) related to updated plugins on RPi3+. Radio Paradise plugin works but floods the Volumio log with error messages when streaming FLAC. Installing and enabling the GPIO control plugin (using GPIO18) kills the audio output. Installing the Amplifier switch plugin results in a second entry in the installed plugin list with a second entry with the unrelated Radio Paradise entry... what?

All in all, updating Volumio and plugins was a disaster. Tried a fresh install, same issues. This all stuff that have previously worked flawlessly.

Is it possible to revert to whatever was current Volumio and plugins from a few months back?

I'm getting crashes again on 2.599 on my Pi ZeroW.

Reboot and it will run for a while (anything between a few minutes and several hours) and then just completely stop responding (no ping, no connection). This is both when it's just sat idle and when it's playing an internet radio stream.

Will roll back to 2.586 for a while to test the SD card out, and see how it goes.

Hello,

I've got a Raspi 1 and exactly the same problems. Newest version of Volumio booting up without problems, then I configure it, register my >50k titles lan-library and let it index it. Lasts a long long time, approx. 10 hours or more. Afterwards, if I ever reboot the device, it won't come up again, hangs at some obscure point, won't be reachable neither via webgui nor via ssh, "connection refused". It's registered correctly in my LAN, the router displays the correct IP. Only thing that helps at this moment is to reflash the card.
Did this several times, nothing changed, so I reverted to 2.586 as suggested here, and it's back to normal! Working flawlessly. Indexes the whole library in less than an hour, no problems with rebooting, menus much faster etc.

Conclusion: Versions after 2.586 are incompatible with Raspi 1. Don't update.

[DarrenHill]

To report back, 2.586 has been rock solid since I rolled back.

So my conclusion is also that there's something unstable on 2.599 with the single core/old Pi's.

I see now 2.619 is out so will take it up to that and see how that one goes for stability. But keeping the img file for reliable old 2.586 around just in case...

Hi Darren,

I already tried 2.619, it had the same problem.

This is due to the new kernel for PI4.
We are building a new image with updated kernel
