Lancache autofill does not work

[The_MaTy]

Hey LTT, 

I wanted to setup a way to have all games auto updated inside my lancache server, which is running on Ubuntu. I tried to install https://github.com/zeropingheroes/lancache-autofill but it I am getting errors when I am trying to install 

 

Can someone help me, to install it and set it up to auto update my games?

Strange, it should be available on a 64bit system.

If you were running 32bit that would've explained it.

PHP 7.2 requires a different repository, run the following:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install php7.2-cli php7.2-mbstring php7.2-sqlite3 php7.2-bcmath php7.2-dom

lib32tinfo5 and lib32ncurses5 are 32-bit packages, install the 64-bit packages instead:

sudo apt-get install libtinfo5 libncurses5

Typo, appended 3 to sqlite

Ok, I will try to download them

There was a typo in my command, try the following:

sudo apt-get install php7.2-cli php7.2-mbstring php7.2-sqlite3 php7.2-bcmath php7.2-dom

Looks like it was successfully installed, but now I have problem with that autofill install.sh. I am getting this error.

I'm not sure why this would be occurring unless the script requires superuser execution. Otherwise, it seems to match that of a closed issue at https://github.com/zeropingheroes/lancache-autofill/issues/27.

This is incorrect.

Tried to run it with sudo again and I got this

The only explanation would be a lack of required dependencies, or an issue with the script self. Try rerunning the dependency installation command:

sudo apt install -y libgcc1 libstdc++6 libtinfo5 libncurses5 php7.2 php7.2-cli php7.2-mbstring php7.2-sqlite php7.2-bcmath php7.2-dom composer expect zip unzip

If that doesn't help, please provide the output of php -i.

Purge your existing PHP installation with the following command:

sudo apt-get purge php8.* php7.*
sudo apt-get autoremove

Install SteamCMD:

sudo add-apt-repository multiverse
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install steamcmd

Rerun the dependency installation command. README asks for php7.2-sqlite, which doesn't exist. This was corrected:

sudo apt install -y libgcc1 libstdc++6 libtinfo5 libncurses5 php7.2 php7.2-cli php7.2-mbstring php7.2-sqlite3 php7.2-bcmath php7.2-dom composer expect zip unzip

This resulted in the successful configuration of lancache-autofill:

This would probably be covered by lancache-autofill documentation. I have not personally worked with LanCache, so I'm not sure I can provide guidance here.

It doesn't look like the script sets up a service. You'll likely need to setup a cron job, which you can read about at https://askubuntu.com/a/2369.
