Linux installer malfunctioning (ref#5YH81N)

If you do decide to run the Linux port of Roon on Fedora again, feel free to contact me for tips.

The install script should be updated…

"Wget Failure on Line 191 of Linux Installation Script" (ref#8AUCDQ)

What’s happening? · Something else How can we help? · None of the above Other options · Other Describe the issue Linux installation script line 191 wget failure: The script "roonserver-installer-linuxx64.sh" shows the error "Unknown option 'show-progress'" when executed on Fedora Linux 40. When I delete "-- show progress" in the wget call in line 191, the install script works flawlessly. Describe your network setup not relevant [image]

I searched for something but didn’t find that… thanks for sharing. I didn’t have to modify that on Ubuntu so it must still be using the older version of wget.

For those that are interested in installing Roon Server on Fedora Server 40:

1. Install dependencies such as ffmpeg and possibly RPM Fusion Free/Non-Free. Update system packages. Reboot.

2. Go to /etc/selinux/ and edit config under sudo. Change SELINUX=enforcing to SELINUX=permissive and save

3. Go back to home/(user) folder and run scripts:

$ curl -L -O http://download.roonlabs.com/builds/roonserver-installer-linuxx64.sh
$ chmod +x roonserver-installer-linuxx64.sh

4. Edit roonserver-installer-linuxx64.sh and go to line 191. Change wget --show-progress -O to wget --force-progress -O and save file.

Note: Fedora 40 uses wget2 which necessitates the --force-progress

5. Run script:

$ sudo ./roonserver-installer-linuxx64.sh

If it is successful, Roon Server should be running. You can verify by entering sudo systemctl status roonserver.service

Note: This does not cover firewall settings as detailed here: Android Roon Remote looses connection to Core (daily) - #46 by CRo

You can disable firewall, but I would not recommend that unless you know what you’re doing.

Thanks to Doug Asherman and Martin Simon for the help!
