IMPORTANT ERMERGENCY FIX for rooExtend
Dear rooExtend users,
as rooExtend is based on Debian Linux I rely on their system packages.
During the last few days debian changed the location of one of their repositories. This affects the update process in rooExtend in a way that no more updates will be automatically installed.
Also in certain circumstances it may stop rooExtend at all!
It is absolutely important for ALL rooExtend users to install the fix I provide with this post.
This fix is for all rooExtend instances also for the rooExtend-Box.
How to proceed:
-
Open in Roon Setings/Extensions
-
Find the rooExtend License Manager
-
Press the “Settings” button of the rooExtend License Manager
-
At the end of the upcoming dialog you find this line:

-
Open your browser and enter http://[IP number you found]. In the example above it will be http://192.168.0.193
-
In the rooExtend Service Page displayed in the browser find this section:
-
Enter the following URL in input field: https://rooExtend.com/fixes/fix_debian.sh.
Please copy and paste as Upper and Lowercase matter! -
Press the button “Reinstall Roon Bridge and shutdown rooExtend”
After approx. 15 seconds your rooExtend will shut down. -
After the shutdown please power off your rooExtend and power it on again.
This procedure fixes the issue of no more being able to install updates.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Best DrCWO
