I have even tried executing a simple program such as KWrite (RN kwrite!) with out success, using Centos Rivendell install disc with all updates applied. Could someone else do this simple test this using this distribution? Then at least myself and Stephan will know that it's not just us. Thank

The difficulty is with the CentOS install disks from Paravel. The original message of Stan Fotinos "[RDD] Simple Script Not Running Using RN", he has problems with RN on CentOS5, installed from the Paravel install disks. I have that same problem. I could not solve it. Cheers, Stephan >> The only

Robert, I forgot to tell, that though the client machines are connected through the open internet, they are connected to the local network of the Rivendell server via VPN. So I thought that the clients could be connected direct to the server MySQL without any problems? It's only /var/snd that needs

Morten It's easy enough to rsync the /var/snd from one RD system to another but you also have to copy the MySQL database which contains all the data other then audio. If someone creates voice tracks on the remote system, you then need to reverse the process and update the local system both /var/sn

Thanks for your suggestions. I will try out GlusterFS or Csync. Someone wrote about Csync on this list a couple of months ago, so it has been used with Rivendell. A shame it isn't in the Centos repo. Kind regards, Morten 2012/7/31 Wayne Merricks : > Hi, > > I assume you've got both PCs hooked up

Hi again, I tested out RN further. On my 3 studio machines which are a stripped down Debian 6 (gnome-core and not much else) it works fine. 2 of the machines use JACK + Riv as the local user whereas the main studio is plain ALSA with Riv running as root (via the +s default permissions on /usr

When I discovered incomplete files on the client-pc, I was just importing a file or two on the server via RDlibrary - nothing fancy being done there. I guess I could add a sleep command to my script, but eventually I would be unlucky that Rsync on the client would conflict with some file operation

Practically, I don't think it makes sense to do this continuously. A sleep between runs of at least 5 seconds, will unload your machine so that it can do other things, otherwise it will be quite busy starting and stopping these processes. I'll let others talk about the specifics of Rivendell

Same here: RN does not work. I also run CentOS from the install disk of Paravel. Posted about this (http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/pipermail/rivendell-dev/2011-December/014263.html), no solution :-( I have to use CRON jobs, which makes the whole setup messy. Cheers, Stephan > Hi All > > I have

I've been testing this out and can't find an obvious solution but I do have some suggestions. First your script runs excessively while inside the loop so it would be wise to add a sleep 20 or 30 as surely you don't need to check the time as fast as humanly possible and keep sending out LC messa
