Hi I am running LMS version 7.8.1 on a Duet (Sun Sparc). I had tried version 7.9.0 but hated it, especially the way it indexes participants on other peoples albums as artists in their own right. But this post isn't about that, it's about 7.8.1.
A weird database corruption happened with Joni Mitchell's 'Blue' album. It has 8 tracks, lets say for simplicicity that the track titles are 'Track 1' to 'Track 8'. Instead of listing like this: Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 Track 5 Track 6 Track 7 Track 8 it started listing like this: Track 1 Track 1 Track 1 Track 1 Track 1 Track 1 Track 1 Track 1 Track 2 Track 2 Track 2 Track 2 Track 2 Track 2 Track 2 Track 2 Track 3 ... (and so on - listing each track 8 times each). Absolutely no amount of clearing the cach changed anything. So I tried an experiment and moved the album to a new folder, not called 'Joni Mitchell' like the original, but just called 'Joni'. I left all her other albums under 'Joni Mitchell'. It didn't change the problem, however, when I reverted the folder to it's original location, it now also lists the non-existent 'Joni' as well as the original problem. So I uninstalled EVERYTHING possible - I ran the Clean Up on the databse from Frontview, then I deleted the LMS, ran the cleaner code (which I believe now no longer works as it cleans MySQL but apparently LMS now uses SQLlite - nice the tools are never updated. Then I reinstalled LMS, rescanned everything, and of course that changed exactly nothing. I have zero knowledge of Linux or whatever the NAS is running but I think I need a way to totally wipe the SQLite and get the LMS to repopulate it afresh. Can any kind and competent person help me through this tricky step please? Any nice GUI tools, if they exist, would be a God-send too. Whatever helps, really. Thank you!
