Hi there, I’m on channel nixos-24.11. Recently spotify has been acting up for me. I feel like it was after a nixos-rebuild --upgrade. I don’t think I’ve changed anything else lately.
Main issue seems to be “Something went wrong” when searching.
I’ve done the common wipe .cache and .config tricks.
Nothing sticks out in nixpkgs/pkgs/by-name/sp/spotify at nixos-24.11 · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub .
Nothing sticks out in spotify --log-file=spotify.log .
I’m experiencing the same issue in my environment (NixOS 24.11 on x86_64-linux). I could search for songs a few days ago.
Encountering the same issue on MacOS with the nix package from nixos-unstable
Same problem for me yesterday and before. Did update from unstable today and seems to works now .
(/nix/store/0vrw1awzm7lkn12l81b0mai4awqpd752-spotify-1.2.59.514.g834e17d4/share/spotify/.spotify-wrapped)
Ok, it seems to me like there was a breaking change on the API side of things and an update (of the build source) is required.
Somebody updated 1.2.48 to 1.2.59 in branch nixos-unstable a month ago, but only for linux, not darwin. Which is why the unstable linux person above claims working, but not the darwin unstable or 24.11 folks.
So it seems the darwin spotify needs updated for unstable, and both those changes need backported to 24.11. This could be low hanging fruit for anyone looking for something to do.
…looks like nixos 25.05 was released today anyway so i’ll confirm in a bit. In which case just darwin needs the update.
…yup 1.2.59 is working on nixos-25.05.
