Hello to all

just wanted to check ampache on RP4.  
Downloaded newst dietpi  
setup all like wlan, smb mount

add software ampache  
choose lighthttp  
(add automatic mariadb and some other stuff)

so it looks like no error all fine.  
But: loading the website “[http://dietpi/ampache](http://dietpi/ampache)” I got a long list of needed updates and pressing the update button makes nothing.  
google told me to drop the database und manual install it.  
copy here the script:  
c\> d /tmp

> mysql -e “DROP DATABASE ampache;”  
> curl -sSfL [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ampache/ampache-debian/master/sql/ampache.sql](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ampache/ampache-debian/master/sql/ampache.sql) -o ampache.sql  
> /boot/dietpi/func/create\_mysql\_db ampache ampache dietpi  
> mysql ampache \< ampache.sql  
> rm ampache.sql

this bringsup the login page of ampache, but now I’m not able to login…  
(yes I choose the user and password from the short description admin/dietpi)

because all work to find a condif file or error massage from lighthttp, I deinstalled all and started again with apache.  
same problem and noch httaccess or some entries in config file for apache…

ok - it seams to be a layer 8 problem (means user problem)…  
some tips?

dropping database has dropped all user as well 😉 Can you try to open following side [http://192.168.0.x/ampache/install.php?action=show\_create\_account&htmllang=en\_US&charset=](http://192.168.0.x/ampache/install.php?action=show_create_account&htmllang=en_US&charset=)

Replace IP with your own one. based on [Bypassing Ampache Update Page - #5 by mostly\_offline](https://dietpi.com/forum/t/bypassing-ampache-update-page/17367/5)

thk’s  
worked - not out of the box, but worked  
I got first an error, the some columns were missing, then reinstall software, then the landing page with huge updates worked…  
so now it is up an running  
will redo that on weekend to get better understanding
