Hello!

I've upgraded my Optware packages on my AC86u with merlinFW.
minidlna refuse to start:
minidlnad: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.58: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32

Found conflicting library - FW is of version 58 and opkg is version 59:
/tmp/mnt/entware/entware/lib/libavformat.so.59.16.100
/tmp/mnt/entware/entware/lib/libavformat.so.59 - link to above
/usr/lib/libavformat.so.58

How to convince minidlna to grab the right one? The lower version is on a read only folder.
 
Hello!

I've upgraded my Optware packages on my AC86u with merlinFW.
minidlna refuse to start:
minidlnad: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.58: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32

Found conflicting library - FW is of version 58 and opkg is version 59:
/tmp/mnt/entware/entware/lib/libavformat.so.59.16.100
/tmp/mnt/entware/entware/lib/libavformat.so.59 - link to above
/usr/lib/libavformat.so.58

How to convince minidlna to grab the right one? The lower version is on a read only folder.
Forget to mention that FW minidlna is version 1.2, and installed Optwares minidlna is version 1.3
 
I can't find any references to libavformat.so.58 in the Entware minidlnad binary, only references to libavformat.so.59.

The firmware-supplied version of minidlnad does link libavformat.so.58 so that makes me think you are executing the firmware version of minidlnad instead of the Entware version.

What are you doing that causes this error message to appear?
 
/opt/etc/init.d/S90minidlna - here is daemon named "minidlnad"

There is only one minidlnad on the system, so can not start firmwares one from CLI:

Code:
# which minidlnad
/opt/sbin/minidlnad

firmware minidlna works fine - Asus GUI setting, the first line of a log file:
Starting MiniDLNA version 1.2.1.
I can watch movies on connected Windows machine (VLC)

Setting firmware minidlna OFF in GUI:

then

Code:
# find / -name libavformat*
/tmp/mnt/entware/entware/lib/libavformat.so.59.16.100
/tmp/mnt/entware/entware/lib/libavformat.so.59
/usr/lib/libavformat.so.58


Code:
# /opt/sbin/minidlnad
/opt/sbin/minidlnad: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.58: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
 
There is only one minidlnad on the system, so can not start firmwares one from CLI:
Sorry, you are correct. The firmware version is called minidlna and the Entware version is called minidlnad.

Code:
# /opt/sbin/minidlnad
/opt/sbin/minidlnad: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.58: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
Try this:
Code:
/opt/etc/init.d/S90minidlna start
If that doesn't work try updating your Entware packages again.
Code:
opkg update; opkg upgrade
 
Sorry, you are correct. The firmware version is called minidlna and the Entware version is called minidlnad.


Try this:
Code:
/opt/etc/init.d/S90minidlna start

Thanks, but the original reason for me to directly execute minidlnad is failure to run the one you suggest.
The result "FAILED" is not descriptive, so to get the cause I exec minidlnad directly. That show a lib version conflict.
 
Can you post the output of these commands please.
Code:
set | grep PATH
Code:
sh -x /opt/etc/init.d/S90minidlna start
 
Code:
# set | grep PATH
CHECK_OPT_PATH='0'

and there is no traces of conflicting library there:

the path is without space --> '/opt/lib'
 
Well I've just installed it on my RT-AX86U and it starts up without any errors. I'd guess that there's some dependent package which needs to be updated.

That's the first thing I checked (post #5). It looks like you're running an old version. Perhaps with mixed Entware package levels installed.
Code:
# strings /opt/sbin/minidlnad | grep libavf
libavformat.so.59

Thanks a lot.
Solved.

At mine there was listed libavformat.so.58. and some missing libs.
Uninstall and then install minidlna solved that.
opkg --force-reinstall did not help.

I think the root cause of a problem is the exact same package name in Entware repository from previous and current (13th april 2022) version.
They recompiled the same source from ReadyMedia with included refreshed libraries.
And opkg --force-reinstall also do not work as it should. Could be, that it reinstall locally saved package, as the new one on remote repository have the same name.
That is the reason, I spent so much time to make it work again.
Lesion for future - never to use --force-reinstall
