Firefly on NAS?

[fizze]

Where is the mt-daapd binary located? The program, not the config file 😉

eG if its in /usr/bin you’d have to type

/usr/bin/mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd.conf

OK, so it’s in “/usr/local/sbin/”
when I’m in that directory, I run: “./mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd.conf”
and I got no response, just back to the promt.
And when I try the “ps -ef | grep mt-daapd” command,
all I still get is:
“root 1181 1168 0 16:22 pts/0 00:00:00 grep mt-daapd”

arghhhh….. 😈

To locate the mt-daapd executable try this from your telnet session

find / -name mt-daapd

This should list the location of the file.

[edit]
Sorry, after reading your posts above again, try this

/etc/mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd.conf

Ok, response: /opt/mt-daapd-svn-1586/src/mt-daapd

So I should write code:
“/opt/mt-daapd-svn-1586/src/mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd.conf” ??

[sonichouse]

If that is the binary, then yes.

to check try

ls -l /opt/mt-daapd-svn-1586/src/mt-daapd

and it should show something like

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 350844 May 18 03:37 /opt/sbin/mt-daapd

This shows if it is executable. My fear is that is just a directory you listed.

This was the response:
“-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 725883 Nov 4 17:56 /opt/mt-daapd-svn-1586/src/mt-daapd”

[sonichouse]

Looks like that could be the one then.

so try runing

/opt/mt-daapd-svn-1586/src/mt-daapd -c  /etc/mt-daapd.conf

Good luck 😆

Hey thanx for all help, but still no response more than back to promt…

An dalso, in the S99firefly script it says:
“echo “Starting Firefly”
/usr/local/sbin/mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd.conf”
then shouldn’t it be in sbin?!

In your conf, look at where it is writing the log file.

Check if it has written a log and see if it has anything in there.

You might want to increase the debug level with -d9 on the command line as well e.g.

/opt/mt-daapd-svn-1586/src/mt-daapd -d9 -c /etc/mt-daapd.conf

or you could try

/opt/mt-daapd-svn-1586/src/mt-daapd -V
and see if it prints the version to the screen.

According to the wiki the file is copied to /usr/local/sbin.

so you should be able to use that one as well.

the wiki also talks about symbolic linking of the sqlite3 library as well.
