MinimServer 2: No rescan from control point

[Audiophiliac]

Hello all.
Setup: Synology DS416play + BubbleUpnp + MinimServer 2

So far, MinimServer 0.8 worked without any issue since several years with old Synology system DSM 6.x.x

I updated yesterday from Synology system DSM 6.x to DSM 7.1.1.
Java8 is not compatible with DSM 7.x, hence MinimServer 0.8 cannot be used anymore and then I updated to MinimServer 2.1.2 update 218.

The server works fine, but I lost 3 of my preferred functionalities:
1. Artist.reverseName.display does not work anymore: ''Name, Firstname'' is swapped to ''Firstname Name''
2. Comment.display does not work anymore: I store additional information about tracks in this field (recording place, date, media source, etc.)
3. The rescan of the library from the control point does not work anymore

The first 2 points seems to be solved by paying a rental fee.

The third one seems to be an issue, since touching the "rescan library" from BubbleUpnp on MinimServer (3 dots) setup does not have any effect, as it was previously. Nothing happens.

While the rescan works fine using MinimWatch on the PC, after a minor change in the library, the rescan is rather fast as it was with MinimServer 0.8 + BubbleUpnp, but you need to have your PC switched on do perform that.

Does anybody have the same experience? And possibly a solution.

Regards.

When I migrated to v2 in Jan 2021 I know it didn't work, but I reported it and it was fixed shortly afterwards, although I don't run on a Synology.

How are you checking? I open MinimWatch, then select 'Show log' and then initiate a rescan from BubbleUPnP.

Hi Simbun.
Thank you for your quick reply.

No effect in my case. Which MinimServer version do you have?

I opened the log window from MinimWatch and cleared it. Then I made a rescan from MinimWatch: the effect is instantaneous, I see the log window filling with dialog and the NAS is scanning (I hear the discs noise).
When I am doing it from BubbleUpnp nothing happens. The log window remains blank and the NAS remains silent. It's like having the 'Rescan option" inefficient.
I did not change anything in BubbleUpnp. The MinimServer appears in the list of servers of BubbleUpnp, as usual, I can choose it and stream music without issue. But this is impossible to rescan. This is the only issue I noticed so far.

Regards.

I'm currently running MinimServer 2.1.2 update 218 on Ubuntu.

I assume you have an up to date BubbleUPnP? I currently have BubbleUPnP 3.6.9.1 installed.
I don't know how BubbleUPnP is communicating with MinimServer to issue the rescan, but did you have to open any ports for v0.8?

Hopefully someone on DSM 7 using BubbleUPnP can confirm if it's working for them.

After an update of BubbleUpnp the rescan works. I did not have the latest version.

Thanks for your help.
