All of these tracks (which are FLAC by the way) have a genre tag. The
Jah Wobble track, for example, is tagged with genre=Electronic. Even
so, I'd be a little surprised to see error messages appear when no
debug flags were set just because a genre tag was missing.

Hmmm. The error message indicates no genres found, which means it can't
submit tags to LastFM.
It appears you will get these errors even if tag submission is off.
However I can't see what could have generated all the other errors.
I tried this myself with a track with no genres and it worked fine.

You are using the latest code from CVS?

I downloaded the CVS version yesterday, so have the latest version
unless it's changed since then.

OK, a bit more info (mind you, I'm even more confused now. I've upgraded
slimserver to SlimServer Version: 6.5b1 - 9424 - Debian - EN - utf8 and
now I get error messages like this:
 
 2006-09-05 21:46:08.3577 string: Undefined string: LASTFM

 2006-09-05 21:46:10.0843 Backtrace:
 
Also, I got another one of these TAGGING error messages during one of
the periods when the scrobbler was not submitting:
 
 2006-09-05 21:51:32.2033 ERROR: missing details for track NOT

I then performed a manual submit and about 5-10 mins later tested

The missing string could explain why you don't see LastFM in the web
interface - are you using any non-EN languages?

This shouldn't matter: slimserver will fall back to EN if a translation is  
missing. And in this case it even says requested language EN :-).


I've seen this behaviour when a plugin has crashed and thus failed to  
load. Some more details from the log file right after the start using  
-d_plugins would tell us more.

Goog suggestion, and revealing. It seems that in attempts to use the
latest CVS releases I had a Plugins/LastFM/Plugin.pm and a
Plugins/LastFM/LastFM/Plugin.pm, which were out of sync. I've nuked
everything and reverted to the 11 August release versions
LastFM1113.zip and SlimScrobbler035.zip. That's fixed the misisng
LastFM entry in Player Settings  Menus. If my submission problems
persist, I'll have a more controlled attempt to use the CVS versions.

James: thanks for all your patience on this one, there's nothing like
remotely assisting hopeless users!

By the way, does anyone know how to turn on debugging flags from
startup using the deb package init.d script? The obvious route of
setting SLIMOPTION=--d_plugins doesn't seem to work. I can only turn on
the flags at startup by doing a direct /usr/sbin/slimserver --d_plugins
and bypassing the init.d script (which accounts for the fact that I
rarely think of doing it!).

 Unfortunately you have to download each file individually from here, or
 install a CVS client.
 Only Stewart has permission to release a new version of SlimScrobbler

 probably package up the latest version on my own website as the 6.5

Yes, the CVS web interfaces is confusing as it shows deleted directories
that are no-longer required, and there are now quite a few of them. I've
put SlimScrobbler 0.35 for SlimServer 6.5 up on my website on the LastFM
section.

However I've just realised the page description is wrong and the
SlimScrobbler zip does not contain LastFM install!

In some of these cases (e.g. the last one) the Slimserver was

Yes, apologies for that. I should have mentioned that I have now left

It looks like LastFM are changing their IP addresses. 
Failed submission:
post.audioscrobbler.com resolves to 62.216.251.200
Successful submission:
Got Post URL : http://62.216.251.205:80/protocol_1.1

These are supposed to be the same address!
If you upgrade to the latest version from CVS, I have recently
rewritten a lot of this code, so that may solve the problem.

So far, so good. James, I should also thank you very much for the
plugin--I've become a bit addicted, so much so that when I listen to
CDs I get a little disturbed that it's not being logged for the charts!

James, sorry for the noob question, but where do I get the latest
version (what's CVS?)? The link from plugins still shows V.034.

2006-09-01 Thread smc2911

I find the scrobbler is still playing up. For example, submissions were
going yesterday, with the last posted track being the last played of
the evening. Today I just realised nothing had been posted. I did a
manual submit and now the last 10 tracks are up, but I've played at
least 40 today, so it looks as though the earlier ones have been lost.
This time I haven't been mucking around with the server (i.e. no
upgrades, restarts, etc).

2006-08-30 Thread smc2911

I've found that the problem has recurred a couple of times. I suspect
that what happens is that once a submit fails (perhaps due to a slow
response from lastFM), the plugin reverts to caching to a local file,
but it won't try again until you either to a manual submit or change
the autosubmit status. If this is the case, it may be worth changing
the plugin to periodically reattempt submission. In the meantime I've
found that a single manual submit using the remote gets things on
track.

 the autosubmit status. 

It is supposed to resubmit when the timer runs out. 
(The timer doubles each time submission fails, so it can become a very
long wait quite quickly.)
Do you not ever see the automatic submission happening?

BTW is this for SS 6.3 or 6.5? The code has changed significantly for
the 6.5 version.

It tends to be fine for several hours, but periodically stops. For
example, yesterday it was working during the day, but then this evening
I noticed that it hadn't submitted for 1d 1h. I then did a manual
submit, which immediately worked and it's autosubmitting now with no
problem.

That last line is quite helpful. It suggests that the scrobbler
attempted to submit to last.fm 135 seconds (2:25) ago, but the
submission failed. So it's waiting 480 seconds (eight minutes) before
trying to submit again, and in the meantime is just logging things to
the file.

Could you find something in the log from an attempt to submit to
last.fm?

BTW you shouldn't lose logged tracks if you restart slimserver.

Cheers,

I definitely lost tracks when I was having my troubles, but thinking
about it, I may also have upgraded to the latest nightly during that
process as well as restarting, so that may have been a bit harder for
the scrobbler to handle. Luckily it's all travelling well now.

2006-08-28 Thread smc2911

I had a similar problem (only I'm on 6.5) and I found that if I went
through the SB interface Plugins  Audioscrobbler  Submit Now
everything in the text file was submitted. After a few iteration
setting automatic submit (through the plugins page of the webUI) to
off, restarting the slimserver and setting it back to on, everything
started to behave again. Not very scientific I know. By the way, before
restarting the slimserver, do the manual submit otherwise you'll lose
everything in the text file. That way at least you'll post whatever was
collected since the last restart.

Good luck!
