Hey Rob,

This is a long shot, but is SELinux or AppArmor enabled on that box.
Neither of these security tools is enabled by default on Debian 8, but...

Also, since Debian 8 is now initialized with systemd(8), this is also a
possible detail that the devil has taken control of...

It's quite weird that 'scott' can write /dev/ttyUSB0, but 'scott' can't. :)

Re: [RDD] /tmp files not getting deleted with 2.15.3...

[Kit Raymond Haskins]

I just tried it with Centos 6.8 and Rivendell 2.15.3 with rdimport with 
mp3's and with wav's ...


In my case I did:
rdimport --verbose MUSIC *.wav (or even *.mp3)

I've noticed the /tmp directory is still populated with the files after 
the task is completed.  I did this with the rdimport approach as I 
populated the library from files from other Rivendell installs I have, and 
not with a CD via the rip route ...


I hope this helps provide more information for those troubleshooting this 
undocumented "feature"  :)

Re: [RDD] Bug in rdairplay? No.

[Kit Raymond Haskins]

Centos 6.5 with the latest "yum upgrade"
2.6.32-642.13.1.el6.x86_64

Rivendell 2.10.0 & hpklinux 3.08.05

Is my combo, when I went above 2.10.0 I also found problems with compiling 
the HPK library.  I realize the HPK version I am using is not the latest 
and greatest.  I also noticed after 2.5.1 Rivendell my Now & Next doesn't 
work with the UDP connection to my RDS encoder.


I'm sure I've overlooked something while searching the discussion groups 
for solutions, these versions are where I've found stopping points until I 
could further research my compiling issues, a "to-do" project coming later 
this summer when time allows ...


--Kit


By the way, the latest ASI HPI driver (4.18.3, I think) doesn't compile 
on 

Centos 6; it needs at least a 3.2 kernel.

I'm running 4.10.15, which I copied from a machine I built two or three years 
ago and recompiled; but does anyone know which is the latest driver that will 
run on a 2.6 kernel?


Thanks,


Rob

Hi Rob,

I regularly see those "Database connection" events in rdimport.log files
(nearly every time a new file appears in a dropbox directory). This is
on Debian 8 (Jessie) running the Tryphon-packaged Rivendell version 2.10.3.

I also see similar messages from rdairplay on version 2.10.3 as well,
but not nearly as often. Most frequently near midnight when the next
day's log is loaded (with an explicit LL macro call, not a "chain to").

I had chalked it up to a bug in version 2.10.3, so it's interesting to
know that you're experiencing it on a more recent version and on a
different Linux distribution.

Re: [RDD] RDXport error

[Kit Raymond Haskins]

I understood the setup was for the placement of the cgi scripts as
./configure --libexecdir=/var/www/html

/var/snd is where the .wav files live ...
/var/www/html is where the cgi files live ..


The only other similar case I found so far was from 2011 when someone was
compiling Rivendell from source and forgot to set --libexecdir=/var/snd/.
Would there be something I need to correct on this? If so, how?___

Re: [RDD] RDXport error

[Kit Raymond Haskins]

Tom,

I've noticed the grey out time remaining to be a side-effect with httpd 
not having permissions set up, or apache is running as a different user.


Check and see if the apache service is indeed working.  Something like
ps -eaf |grep httpd  <- should spit back some PID's for a running daemon.

Looking in the /etc/httpd/logs directory with error_log and access_log 
have shown me some error messages while the CGI file is called.  Mine 
where ExecCGI messages in which ExecCGI wasn't set-up with the options for 
the folder that rdXport.cgi lives in ...   Is rdXport.cgi doing anything 
when you go to the link with a browser directly ???


lynx http://localhost/rdxport.cgi  <-  should burp back "invalid web 
method" if you're using a web browser.  Or does this return an error 
message like "not found" or some permission error message, of which I 
can't provide an exact quote to the phrase it returns.


(Lynx is a CLI based web browser, in case you are not familar with the 
command, I'm a CLI kinda of guy and do enjoy my  VI, I'm even using Pine 
to compose this message)


--Kit Haskins



Kit, you were right - the time is greyed out at the bottom of the library.
So where should I look now?___

Re: [RDD] RDXport error

[Kit Raymond Haskins]

Sorry for the add-on here.  With a partial install, might even see if the 
HTTPD server ie: apache2 is installed, running, alive:


ps -eaf |grep httpd

Again thinking here with RDXport errors, could be the apache server isn't 
playing nice in the sand box, being a possible partial install ... 
Guessing here ...
