[Ticket In, Fixed in #1535] Roon server demanding new authorization every time it is launched

I run Roon server EA on a Qnap NAS (HS-264) working flawlessly with recent versions.

Since I updated to B1532, every time the roon server app is launched (which happens regularly due to energy schedule and remote booting), roon remote (any) will not recognize it automatically. I have to go through the ´Choose another roon server´ procedure including signing-in an de-authorizing what appears to be a remnant of the previous login on the same server. Seemingly roon fails to identify that it is one and the same server I am running it on.

A side effect of this behavior is me loosing all audio device preferences. Not even a backup restore helped bringing them back.

Interestingly Roon ARC will show several of these ´ghost servers´ of mine which have been online recently but are all not available anymore.

Thanks in advance!

I had this happen as well.

Me too. Everytime I restart Mac mini M2 pro in which Roon server is running, I am urged to select a different server, and I do so. However, the server is eventually the same server I had to quit.

Can confirm I’m having this issue as well.

I had this happen with 1532 also. I rebooted my W11 Roon Server PC and after resetting all my remotes to connect to my “new” Roon Server, everything is stable. A weird anomaly I found is that my Roon Server ID is different for 1532 than previous to 1532. My Roon Backup seems to see my 1532 Roon Server as a different device. Not sure what happened, but as I noted, everyrthing is stable again.

Reboot again and it will deauthorize again. This is a breaking bug and requires dropping to production until it is patched.

Thank you David. I just dropped to production version and everything is fine!

Same situation here.
All the downloads (100+ GB) lost :frowning:

Can confirm as well. Uninterrupted service for weeks, just this afternoon got prompted for a macOS update. Got caught in a loop of sign in, authorization already in use, sign in again, deauthorize, sign in again, authorize. Thank goodness my listening stats were retained.

Thank you for reporting the issue! Our dev team is working on the fix.

This issue should be addressed in a just released build # 1535.
