Replying to myself here. Just after my last post, I found the cause and remedy for the appender error in 'another thread' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?p=245155#post245155)! Simply removing the empty file prefs/log.conf made the error go away. I'm quite confused by this, however,

Just got my Squeezebox (Classic), it works great and was a really nice match to Audioengine 5. However, I have a small problem with the server. It starts fine with the --daemon flag on Arch but when I try to use bogomipz rc-file then I get the following error: ERROR: you didn't tell me how to impl

bogomipz, I simply forgot to thank you for the elaborate instructions. Thanks! I've attempted to apply your instructions on 7.3.2 and getting pretty far. However, halfway through starting up slimserver a message appears: Can't call method "log" on an undefined value at /home/squeezecenter/squeez

sox is required for transcoding I believe. I had a couple of 88.2 FLAC files which cannot be played by the SqueezeBox and are transcoded to 44.1. Apparently by sox. -- th00ht SqueezeBox v3 SqueezeCenter7.4 Quad 303 + Two Quad Electrostats 'last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/th00ht)

This is what I did to get it up and running. I usually build packages for everything I install because it makes it easier to upgrade or uninstall, but for this I chose to simply untar in a home directory. Install libgd and sox (not entirely sure if the latter is required). Code:

Yes, ownership of slimserver.log and directory prefs/plugin was the problem. Thank you, yannick, for bringing this to my attention. The end result now is that setting up SC 7.2 was actually -very- easy, using perl-5.10 from Arch and CPAN from Slim Devices. The trickiest part was because I opted f

I had exactly the same error messages as I tried to setup SC on a DNS-323 (a NAS). For some reason there is a bug in the logger and you get a "Can't call method "log" on an undefined value at..." instead of seeing the real error message. In the case of the DNS-323 I got stuck on this error for a
