Serviio

I have a 25“ iMac M1 running macOS Tahoe 26.5.2. After the initial installation of Servio, everything works fine. I shut down the computer, and when I open it and Servio, I get this message: ”Cannot Connect to the server, it doesn't seem to be running..."
I’ve looked into it but haven’t found a solution. What should I do? Thanks in advance for your help.

The first thing to check is if the Serviio service is running. I can't tell you how to do that on a Mac. If the service is running, then you likely have a firewall issue. I'm assuming the MacOS has a default firewall like Windows does. Certain ports have to be open for Serviio to be visible on your network devices.

I have the same issue with the 2.5 version and had to roll back to version 2.4 on MacOS 15.7.9 / java version "1.8.0_503"

The Serviio version 2.5 installer does not install the library file ' /Library/Application Support/Serviio/jre/lib/./JavaNativeFoundation'.
This version seems depending on this particular file, which the version 2.4 and earlier do not.
Further investigation shows that the file seems to exist, however the symlink I found points nowhere on my MacOS.

This might be an indication of the cause of this problem.

Please investigate.
