Hi Ducan and others, I have tried last night freevo svn 11342 with kaa svn 3862.
The webserver is indeed started in the background with "freevo webserver --daemon". (SOLVED) One of the problems that still persists is that freevo itself is not passing the intro screen. I try to explain the situation a bit better: Begin situation: no freevo related process is running. When I start freevo, "freevo" on the shell prompt. the intro screen is displayed but stopped when the progress bar is full. I never get to the menu. (The main-1001.log file is generated change compared with last time I tried the svn.) I think that the problem is the way how the webserver is automatically started from the freevo process; this is what I see when I do "ps ax | grep freevo": 6731 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/freevo 6735 pts/0 Sl+ 0:04 python /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/main.py 6745 pts/0 S+ 0:00 sh -c /usr/bin/freevo webserver start 6746 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/freevo webserver start 6749 pts/0 S+ 0:00 python /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/helpers/webserver.py webserver start I believe that the word "start" should have been --daemon for process 6745 and/or 6746. The webserver is running and is responsive to requests. I do get the freevo main menu when I kill process 6746. (I do not have this problem when I start the webserver in advance before I start freevo but freevo is complaining a bit on the prompt about that situation: "webserver still running, run 'webserver --stop' to stop" noting is shown in the log file.) I have one error message (coming from the weather plugin) but I do not care too much about that now. ERROR: global name 'NetworkException' is not defined But a more inportant item is that the system shutdown functionality is not really working. Freevo shutdown (the freevo process stops) but the computer not (the shutdown/halt command is never issued). This is both true for the menu option "shutdown system" as the automatic shutdown timer. I have this in my local_config.py SYS_SHUTDOWN_CMD = "/home/freevo/bin/sysshutdown.sh halt" SYS_RESTART_CMD = "/home/freevo/bin/sysshutdown.sh reboot" (sysshutdown.sh is a little wrapper script arround "sudo shutdown -h now" (or -r now)) And that worked well with svn release 11227. Is the variable name changed or is it something more in the internals of freevo/kaa? Can I do more to (help to) solve this?
