lancache-dns not working on windows

[rubensamuelJesus]

hi,
i'm trying to setup lancache on the server all setup, but when i change DNS in windows and start download on steam, at the 2 time it won't cache

[mintopia]

Please try the following:

1. Remove the alternate DNS server in Windows. If an alternate DNS server is specified then Windows will use it.
2. Disable IPv6.
3. Run ipconfig /flushdns and try again.

That should sort it.

I will test this as soon as possible and say something.
Right now I'm testing it on a ubuntu virtual machine. But previously I tested on raspberry and was having difficulty running the containers. Is it possible to run on a raspberry pi 4?

I did not have much luck trying to run it on raspberry pi. But props to you if you get it working!

I'm borrowing this thread as I'm also having troubles setting up lancache on Windows (Docker). The error.log is filled with:

This happens when I try to download the same game again (which should be then cached). I can see that for example the file:

data/cache/cache/8e/2e/1e7b6ba234e90f96224edf14c9c62e8e

exists but

data/cache/cache/8e/2e/1e7b6ba234e90f96224edf14c9c62e8e.0000000029 doesn't.

Why does it try to find the extra .0000000029 in the filename?

Or should I define CACHE_ROOT somehow differently in Windows, right now it is just ./data . Storing of the cache seems to work though, somehow it just doesn't find the files afterwards.

Thanks, for help.

I am having this same issue. Did you ever resolve it?

I did not have much luck trying to run it on raspberry pi. But props to you if you get it working!

Heh! Old thread, but a bit of fun news from here:

I managed to launch Monolithic on my Kubernetes cluster (K3S) that is running on a mixture of Raspberry Pi 4 and 5's!

I am using a 2 TB NVMe harddrive that is mounted on my Raspberry Pi 5 on the PCI Express bus x1, that has been tweaked to run in PCI Express 3.0 mode and I am sharing the drive to my cluster as csi-nfs volume. I guess it is also possible using Longhorn as storage, although I do not have the money to test it. :-)

What you need to do is basically clone and docker build the lancache/ubuntu, lancache/ubuntu-nginx, lancache/monolithic and lancache/lancache-dns projects yourself - in ... that ... order, since lancache/ubuntu and lancache/ubuntu-nginx images is only available for Intel/AMD CPUs.

However lancache/ubuntu is based of ubuntu:bionic, which does come in a arm64 flavour. Hence the need to recompile the whole project yourself and update image references in all Dockerfiles to point towards your compiled versions.

I have then made ConfigMap for my cluster that is based of the settings in the .env file from the docker-compose project.

And with that I was able to make an Ansible task that created a StatefulSet that launched the monolithic and lancache-dns containers.

I am currently debugging why lancache-dns is going into CrashLoopBackOff mode but, I have to wait to another day, since it is getting late here. :-)

A few wishes from here:

• Considering how old ubuntu:bionic image is, can we get lancache/ubuntu:latest to use the ubuntu:noble instead? :-)

  I know it is not as simple as just replacing tag, since I saw complaints regarding Python 3.

  As far as I can gather it is because of renaming of packages and other structural changes to the distribution.

• And and you also make a Arm64 release of lancache/ubuntu and lancache/ubuntu-nginx, so we can skip a step or two? :-)
