Raspbian/RPI4 - MODEP not starting

Pisound Support
1

Hi,

I installed pisound on a raspbian instance (RPI4)

after having installed modep, there is no UI available even localy

this used to work (2021? 2022?), I had to reinstall everything since there was no way to disable wifi hotspot from the menu

thanks for your help on this

installation:

curl https://blokas.io/pisound/install.sh | sh
sudo apt install modep
sudo systemctl stop modep-mod-host modep-mod-ui
sudo systemctl start modep-mod-host modep-mod-ui
sudo systemctl status modep-mod-host modep-mod-ui

error:

ok my bad, I simply forgot to reattach the pisound hat ( how retarded is that :slight_smile: )
another thing to mention is that the service also needs to be enabled to start on boot
