[slim] Problem starting slimserver with slimserver.sh on FreeBSD
Using FreeBSD 5.4 RELEASE, Slimserver 6.1.1 from the ports collection. Up to this point I've been starting slimserver from the command line directly (/usr/local/slimserver.pl -daemon) and it runs fine. I decided to use the /usr/local/etc/rc.d startup script to automate things and it doesn't work. When I issue (as root) '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/slimserver.sh start', I get a "starting slimserver" response and then see the Perl app in the Top command... seems normal. Problem is that when I try to access the slimserver web page the app dies. ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

My Slimserver is running on my mail/web/webDAV server which is a 500Mhz box. A friend of mine is running Slimserver on FreeBSD on a 100MHz 64Mb box with no issues. I don't bother with GUI's on these things though... they consume more ram than the Slimserver app :) ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
