Which distro are you using?  If Ubuntu desktop, you can use your
browser to go to http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/ select the
server version, then double click on the debian version.  This should
bring up "Gdebi", from which you can install the prog.

I've been using this method since the repo started misbehaving.

I'm running ubuntu 8.10 on an old DELL P2 266Mhz machine with 192M
memory.  works very well, but music scans take a while. No issues with
music streaming local or internet radio. It's on the edge but works.

Go for it.

Follow the instruction in the wiki (note requirement for additional
dependency if you have the ububntu 8.10 server)

I use a headless PC running Ubuntu 8.10 server (see signature below).
To help manage the server from a terminal, I use midnight-commander,
htop and rcconf. These apps can be called from an SSH terminal on a
linux box or from a Windows PC using PuTTY.

Add the following packages:

apt-get install mc  (file manager)
apt-get install htop  (enhanced version of top)
apt-get install rcconf (to control startup scripts)

You can also install apps needed for the AlienBBC plugin and for
decoding non-native streams.

apt-get install mplayer
apt-get install lame

When you have installed Squeezecenter, connect using a browser from
another computer to http://:9000

Ideally your music should be stored on your server PC, to save running
any other machines.

SC runs its own instance of MySQL so to reduce processor load, from a
terminal type:
sudo rcconf

deselect mysql from startup list with rcconf.

My ubuntu 8.10 server has run without problem for a number of months
now.  I never have the need to use a GUI.  I couldn't anyway as my
Nvidia video card is no longer supported by 8.10.

SC 7.3.1 also needs the extra file.

What happens is that Squeezecenter attempts to start and times out
after 5 second then continually tries to restart.  If your browser
times out, I would say that you need libfreetype6 to get the SC
instance of mysql started.

Try it

Did you get SC 7.3.2 to run OK? You haven't said in previous posts.  I
found it necessary to install "libfreetype6" on my ubuntu 8.10 server
before SC would run.

use: 
Code:

apt-get install libfreetype6

Radical solution, but the answer was formatting to ext3, although I
find that a FAT formatted drive works well with linux, but also allows
easy swap to a windows PC if you needed to.

Looks like Catch 22.

have a look at this: http://www.ntfs-3g.org/index.html

Note that you will need to unmount the drive first if it is auto
mounted.

Until you can read and write to the NTFS drive, you will not be able to
change the permissions.  You will need to mount the drive using ntfs-3g
to allow you to change the permissions.  You could always revert to
read only when you've done this if you thing the risk of subsequently
corrupting the data is unacceptable.

The Music folder needs to be searchable by squeezecenter - this means
setting the folder permissions as executable.  Check whether this is
the case by browsing to your music folder and clicking properties >
permissions
or in a terminal;


Code:

ls -l /media/NTFS250/FLACMusic




If the folders and files are not executable/searchable, permissions
need to be changed.

In a terminal type:


Code:

sudo chmod -R a+x /media/NTFS250

I have SC running using perl 5.10 on ubuntu and Fedora.  I suspect that
the problem is that perl 5.10 does not like Clarke Connect 4.2 which
natively comes with perl 5.8.5.

I used CC for a couple of years but I've now moved on to use Ubuntu
server 8.10 on my ancient P2 266Mhz computer, and find that as a
mainsteam distro it is easier to manage and low on resource usage.

I think the problem is with perl 5.8.5 which crashes sometimes when the

That's good anyway.

You can get perl 5.8.8 here: 
http://www.perl.com/CPAN/src/perl-5.8.8.tar.gz
or google will get you a number of download sites.

The folder /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim/ is not in @INC which is why
perl can't find it.  You need to create a symlink in the @INC locations
to point to vendor_perl.

See mike's guide

I tried perl 5.10 on cc4.2 some time ago but found that SC would not
start.  I never bothered to fix as perl 5.10 had just been released.

I rescued the position by installing perl 5.8.8 which is known to work
well with all versions of SC.

Mike's guide is for perl 5.8.8.

You can remove perl 5.10 by deleting the new folder you created for it
and removing the symlink to the new perl.

You can then follow the same process to install perl 5.8.8.

you can use WinSCP from your  windows PC to edit any file, or Midnight
Commander from a text terminal on the server. From a prompt use the
command

sudo mc

this will run midnight commander.

Gedit uses the Gnome interface which you would get if you installed the
desktop version.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Ubuntu Desktop or Server?

2008-12-04 Thread Ramage

A few notes which may help you with the installation and running of
Squeezecenter on Ubuntu-server 8.10.

You will need to either log in as root or use sudo for each of the
following commands.

UBUNTU-SERVER TOOLS

To help manage the server from a server terminal, use
midnight-commander, htop, rcconf
These apps can also be called from an SSH terminal on the Windows PC
using PuTTY.

Add the following packages:

sudo apt-get install mc htop rcconf

WEBMIN

Using the Webmin APT repository

If you like to install and update Webmin via APT, edit the
/etc/apt/sources.list file on your system and add the line : deb
http://download.webmin.com/download/repository SARGE contrib
You should also fetch and install the GPG key with which the repository
is signed, with the commands : 
cd /root
wget http://www.webmin.com/jcameron-key.asc
apt-key add jcameron-key.asc You will now be able to install with the
commands : apt-get update
apt-get install webmin All dependencies should be resolved
automatically.

SQUEEZECENTER

sudo apt-get install libfreetype6 (this necessary to make SC run on
8.10 server)
sudo apt-get install mplayer lame

edit the /etc/apt/sources.list and add:

deb http://debian.slimdevices.com stable main
deb http://debian.slimdevices.com testing main
deb http://debian.slimdevices.com unstable main  (I use this one SC
7.3)

Comment out # the lines not required

then:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get install squeezecenter

SC has its own version of MySQL so to reduce processor load, from a
terminal type:
sudo rcconf

deselect mysql from startup list with rcconf

Good luck

Hope the NIC will be recognised by Ubuntu

When you install the server you are given the option of what modules to
install.  Make sure you select SSH - this will allow you to use WinSCP
which is a windows application - just google for the latest version.

Webmin is installed from a terminal on the server - check the website
for instructions on how to http://www.webmin.com/

I have a simple guide which I have used which I'll post later.

If you are learning Linux then everything you need to know is available
on the web.  The ubuntu help pages and forum are excellent.

Have you given up on Clarke Connect?

I use ubuntu server 8.10 successfully on an old P2 266Mhz processor
(see my signature). I would recommend this if you are running headless
- you don't need all the extras provided by a desktop version.  You can
use Webmin to manage  the server.  I also use WinSCP over SSH to manage
file transfers.

I no longer run ClarkeConnect (CC) but did so for a long time with no
trouble - so I will try to help from memory. I also have a BT Homehub.


First, have you tested the ethernet cable?  
Do you have a flashing light on the ethernet port on the Tranquil?
I would suggest you swap the cables between your PC and the CC

You can get an extra command terminal by using function keys F2 and
up.
Log in and at the prompt enter:

ifconfig eth0

this will display info on the NIC eth0

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] help with lightweight headless ubuntu server

2008-11-21 Thread Ramage

If your primary use of the laptop is as a squeezecentre server, then I
would recommend using ubuntu 8.04 or 8.10 server versions.

I have 8.10 server running on an old p2 266Mhz processor with 192M
memory.  This serves up the music fine but is a little slow scanning
the library.  I have mplayer and lame installed for additonal music
formats.

I use PuTTY and WinSCP to work with the server which is completely
headless.

I also install midnight commander (mc) to manipulate files and htop to
monitor performance over SSH.

With the server version I only install SSH and samba. You can use
Webmin also for server management. 

All my music is resident on a second drive on the PC.

I previously ran Clarke Connect on this PC but I am convinced that the
Ubuntu server is better and more straightforward to set up.

I loaded Ubuntu 8.10 server onto a virtual machine just to check it

was loading libfreetype6.

Thanks mate - saved me a lot of troubleshooting.

I see that you use dpkg to install, I always use the synaptic package
manager, without any issues.

I've been using .deb on Ubuntu 8.04 for some time and update the
version almost daily without having to reboot.

The .deb archive "postinst" contains a script which modifies the
apparmor MySql config and then restarts it:


Code:

# If there's an apparmor config, we need to update it to allow mysql to 
work properly
if [ -f /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld ]; then 
## Remove the end-bracket so we can input our data into the 
file...
sed -e 's/}//' /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld > 
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.squeezecenter.new
echo "  # SqueezeCenter Apparmor Changes for MySqld
  /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/ r,
  /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/my.cnf r,
  /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/mysql.startup rw,
  /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/mysql-error-log.txt rw,
  /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/squeezecenter-mysql.pid w,
  /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/squeezecenter-mysql.sock w,
  /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/MySQL/ r,
  /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/MySQL/** rwk,
  } " >> /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.squeezecenter.new
  
mv /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld 
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.squeezecenter.orig
mv /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.squeezecenter.new 
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld
/etc/init.d/apparmor restart 
echo "\n"
fi
  



So you should not need to reboot each time you update.  Maybe what you
experienced was a one off.

Which version of SC are you using? Ubuntu Hardy uses Apparmor with a
Mysql profile which stops SC from running properly even though it
appears to start OK

The Apparmor problem discussed here:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showth...297#post301297.

Squeezecenter version 7.0.1 and later has a fix.

To check it out:
Firstly stop apparmor with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop
restart squeezecenter with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/squeezecenter restart.
If SC runs OK, and you able to use the web interface on localhost:9000
- you have the apparmor problem.

SC versions before 7.0.1 will run with apparmor stopped, but apparmor
will restart when you reboot. The post mentioned above has a number of
ways to permanently disable apparmor, but that is entirely your choice.
The ubuntu forum has quite a lot of info on apparmor, which is worth a
look.

If you have the apparmor problem I would recommend you download and use
an SC version 7.0.1+.  I use SC7.2 but SC 7.1 runs well.

Yes squeezeslave is the correct file, adding the .bin was my error. To
ensure it is executable, open a terminal as root and type:  chmod 755
/usr/local/bin/squeezeslave

That should do it

The fix in 7.0.1 modifies the mysql apparmor profile to allow SC to
run.  The following text needs to be added to:
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld

# SqueezeCenter Apparmor Changes for MySqld
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/ r,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/my.cnf r,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/mysql.startup rw,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/mysql-error-log.txt rw,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/squeezecenter-mysql.pid w,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/squeezecenter-mysql.sock w,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/MySQL/ r,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/MySQL/** rwk,

This text is inserted before the final "}" at the bottom of the file. 
This is essentially what the 7.0.1+ fix does.  See
http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=7580 which identified the
fix in later releases of SC.

When you've patched the file, restart apparmor and restart SC.

An alternative would be to disable the mysqld profile in apparmor, see
ubuntu forums on how to do this.

This looks like the "apparmor" problem discussed here:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showth...297#post301297, although I
thought that only became a problem with Ubuntu 7.10, but 8.04 may have
been updated.

Squeezecenter version 7.0.1 and later has a fix.

To check:
Firstly stop apparmor with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop
restart squeezecenter with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/squeezecenter restart.
If SC runs OK - you have the apparmor problem.

6.5.4 should run with apparmor stopped, but apparmor will restart when
you reboot. The post mentioned above has a number of ways to
permanently disable apparmor, but that is entirely your choice. The
ubuntu forum has quite a lot of info on apparmor, which is worth a

Copy the files into /usr/local/bin, and make sure that squeezeslave.bin
is executable.

open a terminal and type:

/usr/local/bin/squeezeslave --retry --signal

This assumes that your SC is on the local machine (localhost)

A word of caution, I don't use squeezeslave on my ClarkeConnect machine
as it does not have a working audio card;  however I have it running
successfully on ubuntu.

BTW you don't need java for squeezeslave.

This could well be the "apparmor" problem discussed here:

You need to have Squeezecenter version 7.0.1 or later which has a fix.

Firstly stop apparmor with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop
restart squeezecenter with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/squeezecenter restart.
If SC runs OK - you have the apparmor problem.

The thread pointed to above explains the problem and provides a number
of fixes - read it carefully. I have SC running and updating without

I'm not familiar with Mint, but you may find this thread
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?p=301297#post301297
relating to Apparmor in Ubuntu Hardy helpful.   Squeezecenter 7.0.1
modifies the Apparmor profile for mysql, and may be the cause of your
installation hanging.  Just a guess but it may be worth disabling
Apparmor and reinstalling SC.

There is a lot of good info in the thread so go through it carefully to
try and establish whether you have the apparmor problem or something
else.

Good luck

Does it return to to the terminal prompt?  This is normal.

Now launch your browser and connect using url "http://localhost:9000/";

That should bring up the Squeezecenter user interface - follow the

Open a terminal and type

that should do it.

This looks like the "apparmor" problem discussed here:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?p=301297#post301297

You need to have Squeezecenter version 7.0.1 which has a fix.

Firstly stop apparmor with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop
restart squeezecenter with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/squeezecenter restart. 
If SC runs OK - you have the apparmor problem.

The last post in the above url gives a very concise way to make SC work
with apparmor.

I've used the slug for slimserver in the past but stopped at version
6.3.1.  Main problem with upgrading to 6.5.0 onwards was the use of
MySQL and the slug's inability (due to ram limitations) to cope with
mplayer and lame to decode AAC+ and other formats.

I use an old P2 266Mhz procesor with 192MB of ram using Clarke Connect
linux.  The database scan is a bit slow but I've had no problems with
any streaming to an SB3.  The processor and ram stay within bounds most
of the time.  I also use it as a file server, only because its there.

Shows what is possible with a slim linux distro and SC.

Is your media disc file system NTFS (likely if your PC runs WinXP or
Vista).

If it is, have a look here: http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=675

Ubuntu 8.04 should already have the ntfs-3g module so you're half way
there.

Use this at your own risk I can't vouch for it.

Have you rescanned your music since doing the update?  Try a full
rescan see if that clears up the problem.  What you describe is
unlikely to be anything to do with apparmor.  

Presumably you are now running the latest version
squeezecenter_7.0.1~19608_all.deb

Glad that worked.

Try a reboot and see if SC continues to run OK.

If not you will need to update to 7.0.1 (which has a fix)

After an update to 7.0.1, you will have to stop and start apparmor only
once after an update, and maybe not then (it seems to vary). Otherwise
everything will run OK after a reboot.

Try it, and move on from there as necessary.

if the "service" command doesn't work use 

sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop

for all the "service" commands substitute "/etc/init.d" for "service"

Try this b4 downloading 7.0.1.

You can add the "testing" repository to synaptic package manager. 
System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager > Settings >
Repositories > Third Party Software, and enter the details from the
wiki for the "testing" branch.

This could be the apparmor issue dealt with here:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46614 and this bug
http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=7580.

Try stopping apparmor with the command "sudo service apparmor stop".
Restart squeezecenter with "service squeezecenter restart"

Check System > Administration > System Monitor - you should see the
squeezecenter processes.

Access the squeezecenter webpage.

If this works you can now restart apparmor with the command "sudo
service apparmor start"

Older slimserver versions can be found here:
http://www.slimdevices.com/downloads/

Select the one you want and click through for the .deb version,
download and use GDebi to install. (ver 6.5.0 onwards has a .deb
version)

That should give you the init.d startup file you want.

It would be wise to purge the old versions from your system, and start
from scratch.

The "service" command works if you have sysvconfig installed - normally
the default with ubuntu AFAIK.

Can you do service squeezecenter restart?

I presume you are using ubuntu 8.04 Hardy.

I haven't tried 7.1 but stayed with 7.0.1, although I think they are
the same in respect of apparmor.

It seems you may have a corrupt /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld. 
Squeezecenter appends a number of lines to this file to accommodate
squeezecenter.

I also note that you have Mysqld in complain mode.

This is a useful help page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor
and should help a greater understanding of apparmor.  This will guide
on how to manipulate apparmor profiles.

The apparmor profiles are in /etc/apparmor.d.  So that you can
backtrack, I have attached the original /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysql
(.txt added to validate for this forum)  Please feel free to copy it
into your /etc/apparmor.d folder.  You could safely delete any previous
usr.sbin.mysql files.

Squeezecenter will add any necessary lines to this file when you next
do an update.

If SC doesn't start then use

Code:

#sudo service apparmor stop


wait 5 secs for SC to start then start apparmor

Code:

#sudo service apparmor start



SC should then run without problem until the next update.

As you may see from my previous post, I have disabled the mysql
apparmor profile for now.

For those seeking a less drastic solution for squeezecenter/mysql, then
the mysql apparmor profile can be disabled using these commands:


Code:

sudo ln -s /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysql /etc/apparmor.d/disable/

7.0..1~19242 installed and run without problem;  however noted that the
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.mysql now contains 2 versions of the
squeezecenter changes.  This is due to the "postinst" script appending
the SC apparmor changes to usr.sbin.mysql each time an update is run.

Code:

# If there's an apparmor config, we need to update it to allow mysql to 
work properly
if [ -f /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld ]; then 
## Remove the end-bracket so we can input our data into the 
file...
sed -e 's/}//' /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld > 
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.squeezecenter.new
echo "  # SqueezeCenter Apparmor Changes for MySqld

mv /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld 
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.squeezecenter.orig
mv /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.squeezecenter.new 
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld
/etc/init.d/apparmor restart 
echo "\n"
fi



The deb "postinst" script needs to test for the presence of the
squeezecenter apparmor changes in usr.sbin.mysql before appending the
changes, and skip if appropriate.

That's interesting, I use the testing repo ver 7.0.1 which had the

I suspect you don't have a startup script in /etc/rc.d/init.d - check
the folder to see if you have a file "MusicMagicServer"  (I'm not sure
what it's called as I don't have MM installed on my CC).

If you have such an entry then you need to check the rc0.d to rc5.d
folders in /etc/rc.d for startup symlinks of the type
SxxMusicMagicServer where xx are 2 digits 0-9. You may also see
symlinks of the type KxxMusicMagicServer (which stops MM on shutdown).

If you don't have the script and links, I suggest you put your startup
script "/usr/share/MusicIP/MusicMagicMixer/MusicMagicServer start" in
/etc/rc.local, and it will be executed after all the other init scripts
on startup.

I can't recall whether MM server needs to be running before
squeezecenter starts, this may be an issue also.

This advice is based on the way CC uses startup scripts but be aware
that I don't have MM on my machine, and have not tried it.

There is still a problem with running 7.0.1 on Ubuntu 8.04.

Today's nightly installed OK but will not run - same symptoms as
yesterday - an apparmor problem.

I can get it to run by stopping apparmor, restarting squeezecenter and
then starting apparmor.  I get the following message when restarting
apparmor.

Once running I can start and stop squeezecenter without problem with
apparmor running (I think).  I can't see a pid for apparmor in htop or
system monitor - should it have one?

It's not a show stopper but a PITA - should the bug on this be
re-opened?

Returning to the OP's original question - 

Use:

sudo service squeezecenter restart from a terminal window.  Similarly
squeezecenter can be stopped or started by using stop or start at the
end of the command.

To make things easier, a shortcut to these commands could easily be
placed on the desktop or Gnome panels.

I don't think mplayer is available from the CC repository, although an
rpm version for Fedora core may work. But you could download the source
code and compile, it's what I did (a long time ago).  I don't recall
that I had any issues.
To compile the source you will need the cc-devel package from CC.

apt-get update
apt-get clean
apt-get install cc-devel

then

go to http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html to get the latest
source

Download to a temp directory of your choice and unpack, a directory
named mplayer will be created.  

cd to the mplayer directory.

Type the following

./configure

make
make install

NOTE: 'make' and 'make install' may take some time.  The mplayer binary
created should be located in /usr/local/bin.

That should do it.

Use Alien to test mplayer or in a terminal window type:

Code:

mplayer -bandwidth 1000 -cache 128 -playlist 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/realplayer/media/fmg2.rpm



To stream mp3, you will also need lame, but you may have that already?

Good luck

Squeezecenter does not use /usr/local/slimserver but a totally
different structure for its files.  If you have deleted
/etc/init.d/slimserver, then you should be able to install the
squeezecenter rpm.

If you are then happy with it you can remove /usr/local/slimserver in
its entirety.

You will have to set up squeezecenter from scratch, but it's worth it.

Good luck

Are you able to start slimserver? If not there's a very good chance
that the critical slimserver files are already deleted.

I think the only critical one is /etc/init.d/slimserver

If that file is not present then you should be able to install
squeezecenter rpm, without conflict.

Slimserver is in /usr/local/slimserver, you could delete this or just
leave it just in case.  Most important is /etc/init.d/slimserver which
starts the service on bootup, you need  to remove this file - suggest
you copy to a safe place just in case you want to revert.  This file
will be replaced by /etc/init.d/squeezecenter for SC7, installed
automatically from the rpm.

SC 7 is installed in a number of different directories to slimserver.

By the way what version of perl are you running, looks like 5.8.7. 
AFAIK cc4.2 comes with perl 5.8.5. Use the command
#perl -V to check your perl details including @INC paths.

Did you upgrade perl using the thread at
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41188.  If so you will
need to take note of post#4 which states:

"For any ClarkeConnect users who have followed the procedure in this
thread to upgrade to perl-5.8.8, be aware that if you use the new
Squeezecenter rpm you will have a problem (easily fixed)
(See: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?SqueezeCenterRPM for info
on rpm.)

Because the new rpm uses /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim, for some SC
perl modules a link to that dir is needed in the @INC path on
perl-5.8.8. This can be done by typing:

#ln -s /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim
/usr/local/bin/myperl/lib/site_perl/Slim

Alternatively recompile perl-5.8.8 and add
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/Slim to the additional directories list"

I'm not at my CC PC at the moment so the above is from memory

[SlimDevices: Unix] How to Install Perl 5.8.8 on Clarke Connect

2007-12-19 Thread Ramage

ClarkeConnect (C-C) has perl5.8.5 linux-thread-multi installed as
default, but this version causes Squeezecenter to crash when using CLI
on addons such as Moose and slimfx.

To fix these problems SqueezeCenter needs Perl-5.8.8
linux-thread-multi.  

My previous attempts to update C-C to perl 5.8.8 had limited success,
as I had not configured the perl as multi-thread, nor accounted for C-C
modules which were dependent on C-C perl libraries.  There were lots of
dependency problems, a real PITA especially with SC7 and some C-C
modules did not work.

Eventually I got Perl-5.8.8 running correctly on my main C-C machine
but to prove the method, I used a vanilla C-C 4.2 running on a virtual
machine. (this will also work with C-C4.1) This is what I did:

Install a compiler.
#apt-get update
#apt-get clean
#apt-get install cc-devel

Create a new temp directory for the perl source code
#mkdir /temp
#cd /temp

Download the latest source code from www.perl.com to the temp
directory, use:
#wget http://cpan.org/src/stable.tar.gz
#tar -xzvf stable.tar.gz

A new directory /temp/perl5.8.8 will be created - go there
#cd perl-5.8.8

Install the thread-capable Perl somewhere different to the default
install. To do that, use the -Dprefix argument and tell Configure not
to link this new Perl as /usr/bin/perl with -Uinstallusrbinperl.

Make a directory for the newly compiled perl:
#mkdir /usr/local/bin/myperl

ensure that you are in the unpacked /temp/perl-5.8.8 directory, then:

#sh Configure -Dusethreads -Dprefix=/usr/local/bin/myperl
-Uinstallusrbinperl

During the Configure run, you will need to add essential ClarkeConnect
perl 5.8.5 directories to the @INC path.

To do this, respond to the prompts with a default except:

When prompted for: 
"Colon-separated list of additional directories for perl to search
[none]"
enter the following:-
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi:/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi:/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5

Accept all the defaults until prompted to check config.sh.

(Optional) Open config.sh in nano (or other text editor) and find
"otherlibdirs", the list of directories entered above should be there,
if not or there are errors edit the "otherlibdirs" line and save
config.sh.  (Be careful not to change anything inadvertently)

When the Configure run is complete, you can

#make
#make test
#make install

To get the new Perl to work from the default location (/usr/bin/)

Rename the existing Perl binary (for safe keeping - if needed in the
future), enter:

#mv /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl-old

Create a symbolic link in place of the old Perl binary which points to
the new Perl binary, by entering:

#ln -s /usr/local/bin/myperl/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl

Check that permissions allow execution

Check that your version of perl is as you want it, and includes the
correct directories in @INC. Use

#perl -V

When you are satisified that perl 5.8.8 is running correctly,
install/update SqueezeCenter using the rpm.

I had no problems with any SqueezeCenter dependencies, and all the C-C
modules run correctly.

Yeah, I think it is to do with the updated Perl 5.8.8, but it is an
easy workaround.

I don't really like workarounds but Perl 5.8.8 is a workaround anyway. 
I think I'll wait for CC4.2 release before I change my setup.

Thanks for your help on this.

Mick, that clarifies things nicely.

Your experience with the rpm are similar to mine but I also had to copy
autosplit.ix from:
/usr/local/slimserver/CPAN/arch/5.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Compress/Zlib/
to /usr/local/slimserver/CPAN/arch/5.8.8/i686-linux/auto/Compress/Zlib
because original folder was not in @INC

I assume you didn't have the same problem.  Any thoughts on this @INC
issue?

Yes I've seen your previous posts about that.

To clarify, what Mick_W wrote worked except for the typos I mentioned
in an earlier post.

A restart of my ccServer showed no error in the server.log, so it looks
good.

I've now managed to apt-get the 2 failed modules.  The problem was a
couple of typos in Mick_w response above.  The commands are:
apt-get install lidjpeg-devel
apt-get install xorg-x11-devel

The problem I have now is that I cannot rerun the update of the GD
module as it is already up to date.  Need to see if I can force this.

Mick_W seems to have succeeded without issues but I'm not quite there
yet, as I couldn't get all the modules I needed.

I'm hoping someone will get back with some advice on that.

I'm sure that once all the issues are sorted we'll be able to come up
with a simple routine to set it up.

Downloaded and installed the latest nightly, and it is running -
scanning the library as I type.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] SC7 on Clarke Connect

2007-10-16 Thread Ramage

I'm still having problems.

#apt-get install libjpg-devel
#apt-get install xorg-X11-devel

return "Couldn't find package"
The repositories used were:
ftp://apt.clarkconnect.
ftp://rh.apt.clarkconnect

So I tried building GD.pm module but answered No to using jpg and
animated gif.  That ran successfully.

I've installed SC from scratch but I can't get it to run.

The startup log is attached, reports a problem with optional Hebrew
Module, but I'm assuming that is not critical - any help appreciated.

My problem is the same as in this thread:
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39240, and the solution
seems to be an updated libgd2;  however, I have tried apt-get and the
file is not available.

The current version of libgd in CC4.1 is libgd.so.2.0.0

Can anyone point me at where I can get the right libgd2?
