Describe the issue

Roon clients keep freezing showing "Waiting for your Roon Server" every 30 seconds.

I'm running Roon server on docker, and following is taken by commanding "docker logs -ft ", whenever log prints "Not responding" clients show "Waiting for your Roonserver" popup. I tested various clients at the same time, all show same thing.

Describe your network setup

My server (ubuntu24.04) and clients and bridges are in same subnet - 192.168.0.0/24. Server is using ethernet, mobile clients are using wireless, and my desktop uses ethernet.

A docker installation is not a supported configuration.

You may be better off posting in Tinkering where other non-conformist ( :wink: ) users reside.

Although I am not certain, it’s gone after doing following things:

  1. “/var/lib/docker/volumes/docker-roonserver_roon-app/_data/Roonserver”
    → owned by wrong owner, and fixed it to root:root which is same to other directories of roon.
  2. Set scheduled backup with same directory (the path information was gone when I approached to 'Edit scheduled backup → backup location → browse)
  3. Set manual backup with same directory. It was not good at first because it was still frozen every 30 seconds,so i went to bed.

Then my sympton has gone through last night. It is totally ok now. If it is changed, i will update here for the other people in the future.

Thanks Mr. @Wade_Oram :slight_smile:

It occurs again. Now i don’t know the reason. I listened music for over an hour before dinner, and came back to roon after dinner, and it suddenly occurs again.

Tried another docker distribution, and issue was there too. Finally i just installed linux version of Roon server, fortinately i could re-use latest backup.
