2007-11-19 07:09:25 (49534c08): Error: unable to open database file
2007-11-19 07:09:25: AbortingWhen I start it again it starts fine. So what can be so wrong about the database file that it cannot open it?
I have tried deleting the database file, but that didn’t help.

Appears to be a bug in the windows port. Right now I’m working on re-doing the database, so we’ll see if that helps. Hopefully done by the end of the eekend.

Hi,
I’m running Firefly Service 1.0 svn-1359
on a WinXP system, SP2, WMP11. My music is on my F: (second physical HDD)Every so often, Firefly shuts down. Log says “Error: unable to open database file”.
If I restart it manually, I am good for some amount of time, maybe a day, maybe a few hours. Then it dies again.
Help?
OK, I downloaded latest nightly build, we’ll see how it goes.

Hi there – this issue is keeping me busy long times – anybody who can possibly help?
thanks – Marcus
After limitless tries I finally found the below thread
http://forums.fireflymediaserver.org/viewtopic.php?p=17598Suggests to kill or even rename the Synology indexing process, as follows:
Ron said
Ah, the hup thing. yeah. On non-nptl pthreads machines (or maybe it’s ulibc machines, not sure) a sighup makes it crash. The thing is, the synology has a disk indexer that indexes any new media on the file system, and then HUPs mt-daapd to make it reindex. Sadly, that makes it die.
The workaround is to kill the synology indexer thing.
and then SydneyGuy suggested
What I did to get around the dreaded HUP problem was to rename /usr/syno/bin/synoindex to synoindex.old
It’s a heavy handed approach but it stopped the damned indexing and the HUP problems haven’t been seen since.
Will try now, and let you know if it worked.
NB – feels pretty lonely here, being the only one to reply to my own replies … 🙄
bye – Marcus
UPDATE:
– renaming the synoindex to synoindex.old was the final cure;
– after a major update from the Synology firmware 0590 to 0637, firefly did not work at all (maybe I messed around with it too much 😉 )
– finally, I reinstalled lately the old firefly/mt-daapd server svn-1696 using the instruction from jchris below. Now the DS-207+ runs on the 0637 firmware flawlessly.
