Re: [RDD] rdimport error "invalid url" Rivendell 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 11.10

[Wayne Merricks]

Ubuntu is /usr/local/libexec (or at least thats what works for me).  Once you 
have that double check you've copied across a working rd-bin.conf.

You should have that file inside /etc/apache2/conf.d/rd-bin.conf

The important lines are line 23 which should read:  and line 50: ScriptAlias /rd-bin/ "/usr/local/libexec/"

If the files not there check your sources it should be inside source_dir/conf.

Wayne

Are you sure libexecdir is set to the right place? I think Ubuntu follows 
Debian, in which case it should be /var/www/rd-bin .

If all else fails, try Rivendell 1.7.2. Apache is not used in Rivendell 
versions prior to 2.0, so there are no URL's to be invalid.

[Patrick Schmalstig / WRRJ Radio]

That's okay. I am having one problem left... my remote web interface for
rivendell is malfunctioning giving me an internal server error. I checked
my logs and they say something like [Mon Dec 19 21:52:54 2011] [error]
[client 127.0.0.1] QSettings::sync: filename is null/empty.

Any thoughts on this?

After reinstalling rivendell, /etc/rd.conf for the top part now reads:

Hi Robert,

Just trying to clear up a bit of confusion.  Your /etc/rd.conf file states  
that Rivendell should run as rduser with the group rivendell.

<-- Snipped from your earlier post -->
[Identity]
; Specify who uses rivendell interfaces (like rdairplay)
; This user must be into the rivendell unix group
AudioOwner=rduser
AudioGroup=rivendell
<-- Snip -->

You have two options, you can create a user called rduser and shove them  
in the appropriate groups (several steps) or you can edit /etc/rd.conf so  
that AudioOwner=patrick (I assume you're already a member of the rivendell  
group but fix that if you're not).

Re: [RDD] rdimport error "invalid url" Rivendell 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 11.10

[Patrick Schmalstig / WRRJ Radio]

Okay scratch that I removed the source package and re-installed via tryphon
packages.

Success!

rdxport.cgi is working as well as rdimport.

Music is importing the way it should and sounds the way it should.

I had to make sure all sample rates were correct... rivendell is running at
48000 hertz nicely.

Thanks everyone for your help!

 If you're running DNS, they should be using that, which will serve
 an FQDN.
 If you're not, then /etc/hosts is what will be queried first.
 ( also, before DNS is running, or if a DNS server can't be reached )

 What is an FQDN ?
 It is the full name of the host machine as it would resolve in DNS.
 It generally consists of four parts.
 the fourth part is the hostname of the machine, such as
 myhost
 the third part, the lower level domain, such as
 myhost.example
 the top level domain in which the example sub-domain exists, such as
 myhost.example.com
 and firstly, ( usually left off and assumed by DNS ) the root domain,
 represented by the blank label after the dot after com.
 ( because everything is below the root domain, and the standard allows
 leaving off the domain name *if* the search is confined to within your
 domain )
 In DNS, the FQDN would be
 myhost.example.com.
 ( note the trailing dot, followed by the blank label )
 As such, that can be one and only one machine anywhere in the universe.
 The "fully" qualified name can refer to one and only one machine.

 I wouldn't do that !!
 I can almost guarantee that something will fail with that
 partially qualified domain name !

 You have host names, but what domain ?
 The machine should assume whatever domain is in
 /etc/networks
 or in
 /etc/HOSTNAME

 Generally, the machine won't complain, but some apps will.

> also, what is this line for?
> ::1localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
> it was in there from the default.

 It's a syntax which some OS understand.
 Depends on the OS.
 Remember, Linux is NOT an OS !
 Linux is a kernel.
 Since I don't know your OS ( off hand ) I can't know
 exactly how your machine will interpret that syntax.
 Several *nix can use that type of short-hand.

you need to have a user on the system = rduser

who is a member of the rivendell group

and that's the user who should be running rivendell

or change AudioOwner=patrick

in the /etc/rd.conf

make sure patrick is a member of the rivendell group and audio group

Cowboy,

Been m,eaning to ask this but it hasn't broken anything yet so, higher 
priorities, etc...but since you bring it up:

My machines are complaining about not having an FQDN. they are on a 
"private" network, we have no domain. what should I put in /etc/hosts to 
shut them up? Currently they look like this (IP's edited to protect the 
innocent):

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1localhost.localdomain localhost
::1localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

10.100.x.xrdbs
10.100.x.xrdoa
10.100.x.xrdprod
10.100.x.xrdncs

Apologies if this is a basic question, I've googled it but always get 
the hostname.example.com answer, that doesn't help me.

also, what is this line for?
::1localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
it was in there from the default.
Thanks,

 Addendum
 You can also do something like

 127.0.0.1  localhost
 127.0.0.2  desiredmachinename  desiredmachinename.domain.com   
alternatename.domain.com   alternatename.alternatedonaim.com

 I've written many times over the years

 NEVER name 127.0.0.1 anything other than localhost !!
 Theoretically, the entire 127 block is a localhost reference,
 and it doesn't matter, BUT some brain-dead apps ( reputedly
 talk, and apparently MySQL ) will choke and die if you
 attempt to use 127.0.0.1 with the machine host name !

 If you are not on a network, then use 127.0.0.2 as the
 machine name IP.
 MySQL is brain dead enough for this to work, even though
 anything in the 127 block is the local machine.

 Because some software authors "assume"..
 Never assign any IP other than 127.0.0.1 to the name localhost.
 Theoretically, any IP ( that really is a network card in that
 machine ) can be assigned to localhost, but the routing
 is different, so don't do it.

 If you are not on a network, create two entries in the hosts file
 127.0.0.1   localhost
 127.0.0.2   desiredmachinename

 That works.

 There's more in the archives by me.

I have run into this problem with Rivendell under Ubuntu.  I was able
to fix the problem after reading this:

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.radio.rivendell.user/861

I got the " 500 unable to set rivendel group" until I changed
permissions on rdxport.cgi.  The solution listed used chown root:root
rdxport.cgi with a setuid of 4755.  Worked for me.  It also worked
when I used my audio group instead of the root group.

you need to be running rivendell as the user listed in /etc/rd.conf for 
everything to work

then that user "allows" other things to happen

Just as a matter of interest what were you using to run your station 
before you switched to Rivendell?

what music is located here?


all rivendell audio is in /var/snd


unusual to have music files stored in a hidden folder: is this on some 
kind of external drive with audio as mp3 or m4a or somesuch?

...now rdxport.cgi is not being able to work "unable to create Rivendell
group". rdxport.cgi is now found but cannot load under the rivendell group.
I've tried creating a SEPARATE user under both the rivendell and audio
groups (and even tried loading rivendell under a new rivendell2 group and
also under root and root). When I've tried all these different users and
groups I also changed the rdxport.cgi permissions to the same user and
group. I also tried chmod 4755 rdxport.cgi.

Nothing at all is working.

Re: [RDD] rdimport error "invalid url" Rivendell 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 11.10

[Patrick Schmalstig / WRRJ Radio]

Yes... I added the user to the audio group... and all users may read and
write from the /media/Personal directory (which contains ./snd where the
music is located)... and may do the same with /var/snd (rivendell sound
directory)

TO ALL USERS: Apparently my problem lies within /etc/hosts. The address
127.0.0.1 was defined as my domain name instead of my host computer name.
Changing this allowed rdimport to work... but not rdXport. Now I get an
error saying the URL /rd-bin/rdxport.cgi is not found... even though the
scriptalias is defined in /etc/apache2/conf.d/rivendell (points to
/etc/rivendell/apache.conf). I changed the alias back to /rd-bin/ in
/etc/rivendell/apache.conf . It was originally /rivendell/ .

does the user login you use in that terminal also have adequate access

The libexec directory is owned by root:root for me with rwxr-xr-x

For my part I have been unsuccessful at getting Rivendell to work on 
Ubuntu Studio, which I use for Production. I opted for Centos as a 
server OS. Production goes in to a 'Dropbox' installed after getting 
around Ubuntu Studio's version of networking. We have tried a number of 
Linux distributions which all have fantastic features, but at the end of 
the day the rule is: You find the software that does what you want, and 
you run the OS the software is made for.

Rivendell can be made to operate on any distribution if you have the 
time to ferret around and install the various components required to 
make it work.  In the Linux world progressive releases of software 
components can contain features incompatible with software that worked 
on previous versions, just like Microsoft and just like Apple. The good 
thing about Linux is you can generally go back to one that works. Or in 
some cases sideways.

Did you plan to use the same computer for Production and Playout?

regards

Robert

Re: [RDD] rdimport error "invalid url" Rivendell 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 11.10

[Patrick Schmalstig / WRRJ Radio]

Sorry to clarify it's not the web browser saying invalid URL... it's
rdlibrary saying that when trying to import music.

I checked permissions of rdimport as well as rdxport.cgi and they are all
the same as when rivendell was installed

[Bill Putney]

Patrick,

It's not that we don't want to help. That's what this whole mail list is 
about.


Rivendell runs on linux and to trouble shoot problems you have to be 
pretty high functioning as a linux hacker. Rivendell is a complicated 
suite of applications with not so great documentation. I've been working 
around *nix systems since the 70's when they were connected to the 
ARPANet by IMPs and TIPs. I still have to put out a call for help to the 
mailing list sometimes because it's been a long time since I did any 
heavy programming and Rivendell is complicated. Sometimes I get help 
right away and sometimes I don't hear a peep. I don't get too upset 
about it, I just start trying things to try to fix it myself. I have a 
machine that I use just for that and if I break it I reload it from 
scratch and it's just a couple days of my time burned up.


I'm not running 2.1 (still in production on 1.7.1) yet so it's hard for 
me to help you. In 1.7.1 all the work with RDLibrary is done in a 
desktop GUI not a web browser. I wasn't aware that had changed.


If the browser is saying the URL is invalid, it probably is either a 
configuration issue with Apache or file permissions. If there was a bug, 
the cgi would die and hang the browser or report some exit error 
message. Open a terminal window and sudo a find for the cgi. Look at 
it's permissions and where it is. Make sure all that it correct. After 
you find out some more, ask the list some more questions. At some point 
you may run across some information that triggers a memory for someone 
and you'll get some help.


I think the point that Tim was making is that no one on this list has a 
responsibility to anyone else to fix problems. If one of us can help and 
we recognize the problem and have a solution we'll reply. If it's new 
ground we're just like you and we won't waste the bandwidth saying so.


Rivendell is an excellent system. It is complete, in current development 
and even as a turnkey from Paravell it is cost effective when compared 
to other broadcast automation systems. If you're really new to this 
whole thing one of the LiveCD's from RRAbuntu is a great way to have a 
running system up in a hurry. Look at their Sourceforge  project pages 
(http://rrabuntu.sourceforge.net/). If you have the money in your 
budget, you can't go wrong with a turnkey and then you have someone that 
really does have a responsibility to help you fix your issues.

[James Harrison]

Well, okay, let's start working this one out instead of getting all 
sidelined. We're volunteers and as a community we should just get on 
with this, eh? I know the no-money feeling (my desktop PC just died, now 
looking at £1k to get a new one sorted out).


So - check /var/log/syslog.log, /var/log/daemons.log for any issues. For 
added points, do this:


* Shut down rivendell daemons, apache2 and any open applications (sudo 
service rivendell stop; sudo service apache2 stop;)

* Start up the daemons, apache2, and rdlibrary.
* Grab a 'ps faux' at this point, and 'tail -n 1500 /var/log/syslog.log' 
(and again for daemons.log)

* Import a file
* Grab the two logs again
* Upload everything to http://pastie.org or http://gist.github.com (the 
latter does multiple files better - make sure you label each 
appropriately as before/after)


You could also check /var/log/apache2/error.log (I think - doing this 
all off memory!), just grab that afterwards. Armed with that info we can 
probably make some progress here.


(The root issue is that Rivendell isn't very good at being specific 
about errors with this stuff - I have some spare time this week and 
might submit a patch to improve things here)

Speaking for myself Patrick, that'd be too bad. I have found the the RD 
community to be an enthusiastic and helpful one, always ready to help get 
someone on the air. But like any community, there are many other demands on 
people's time and attention and they can do only so much. 

Then of course, there is the old honey/vinegar truism which you may wish to 
consider.

If you still wish to bolt, I suggest Zara Radio.

You understand that you are not talking to some support line for a product
that you paid for don't you. This a a community forum where help is given
on a voluntary basis when people have time. If you expect to demand a
response may I say suggest you purchase a product.

[RDD] rdimport error "invalid url" Rivendell 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 11.10

[Patrick Schmalstig / WRRJ Radio]

Hello.

I've been having a lot of troubles lately trying to set up a new
installation of Rivendell 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 11.10 (and do NOT tell me that
this was not meant for Ubuntu 11.10... I looked at that page with regards
to that and did everything on it... it should work properly but it does
not. Not only that but there was no clear documentation that it was not
meant for Ubuntu 11.10.).

Anyway problem is when I upload (or try to upload) a file to rdlibrary I
get "Invalid URL". Here's what I did:

*I have verified my IP address was correct in Rivendell.
*I verified Apache is working correctly.
*I verified the Rivendell cgi scripts were able to be accessed from my IP.
*I verified the freeDB url was correct... freedb.freedb.org.

This started happening randomly. Rdimport was working fine before (with the
exception of uploading music at a lower pitch than it should be... which
I'm trying to fix... but now I can't with this problem).

Please tell me what's up and how to fix it. Please also respond when you
have received this message and you are on it trying to find a solution.
Thank you!
