freebsd and mt-daapd-svn-1696

[Anonymous]

I’ve found no tutorials for freebsd, so tried just to
./configure; make; make install
as it’s notised in the readme file. So ./configure does something, then I try the make command:

make: no target to make.
make: don’t know how to make install. Stop

uname -a
FreeBSD 7.0-BETA4 FreeBSD 7.0-BETA4 #0: Sun Dec 2 19:19:04 UTC 2007 [email protected]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386

I’ve missed smth?

What’s the last thing configure says? Likely something like:

“you must configure with either –enable-sqlite or –enable-sqlite3”.

You’ll need to install either sqlite2 or sqlite3 (your choice) including development libs, and then re-do the configure with –enable-sqlite or –enable-sqlite3 (depengind on which you chose).

I think fbsd installs ports to /usr/local, right? If so, then you’ll also need to use:

–with-sqlite-libs=/usr/local/lib and –with-sqlite-includes=/usr/local/include

That should probably get you going, although I think someone noted some issues with sigpipe on freebsd. Try it and see.

Thanks, it works, the next are configs, but I’ve no time for the problem now> 🙁

from FAQ for netbsd:

cd /usr/lib

sudo ln -s /usr/pkg/lib/libgdbm.so.3 libgdbm.so.3

sudo ln -s /usr/pkg/lib/libid3tag.so.0 libid3tag.so.0



web_root       /usr/local/share/mt-daapd/admin-root

For ubuntu:

Copy mt-daapd.conf from the src contrib directory

cp /opt/src/mt-daapd[version]/contrib/mt-daapd.conf /usr/local/etc/

sudo nano /usr/local/etc/mt-daapd.conf

Change web_root variable to read /usr/local/share/mt-daapd/admin-root

Change other variables as needed.

Make sure to create the mp3 directory and put some mp3 files in there.

Well. I do not undestand all of these steps, so I’ve just tried to find some config in my system:
# locate daap

Copied /usr/ports/audio/daapd/work/daapd-0.2.4b/daapd-example.conf to /usr/local/etc/mt-daapd.conf and edited:

Port            3689

ServerName      daapd server

DBName          daapd server

Password        s0mep4ssw0rd

Root            /..../music

Cache           /var/db/daapd.cache

Tried to put “plugin” or “plugins” to conf, nothing changed. Ok.
mkdir /usr/lib/mt-daapd/plugins

But nothing changes…

UPD

plugin_dir /usr/local/var/mt-daapd/plugins

hi hryamzik,

get rid of the old config file from mt-daapd from the ports. ron changed some paths and other stuff. i recommend using the mt-daapd build from svn 1696. i’ve compiled it on freebsd 7.0 beta2 x64. it works perfectly. i dont know, but on x64 i have to link the libs for myself. maybe you have to do this on x86 too.

here is a little step by step howto which worked for me.

get the nightly sources and untar them. id3tag have to be installed. (you’ll find them in the ports). Next you can configure the sources by

sh configure –enable-sqlite3 –with-id3tag=/usr/local

this should do it without errors. next you can do a

make

and a

sudo make install

if thats done you have to link the libs using “ln -s”. you will find them in /usr/local/lib/mt-daapd/plugins

libout-daap.so -> libout-daap.so.0.0
librsp.so -> librsp.so.0.0
libssc-script.so -> libssc-script.so.0.0

if thats done just edit the mt-daapd.conf in /usr/local/etc to your use and start mt-daapd. if you didn’t build mt-daapd from ports before which i recommend there is no startscript in rc.d. just start mt-daapd from commandline without specific options.

I’m going to google, will post if I’ll find smth

[Osik]

hi

this could be a problem with permission. did you check if the plugins exist at this path?

maybe ron could tell us more about this error.

the only thing google found was the main.c file (line 217) from the firefly trunk.

When there were problems with plugins, it was notesed in command line, smth like “plugin folder not found”. Now nothing is said after mt-daap command. Only that logs.

Check the config option you have for the “runas” user. Likely it’s a username that doesn’t exist on your system.
