Hi from Hamburg (Germany)!
First, thanks for this great piece of code. On my ubuntu server system it runs perfectly!I would like to run another streaming server on my router. The router runs with openWRT RC4 . I guess there are people who were able to run it. Not me! I installed the package i found. The debug info shows that it runs fine. But it never shows up in itunes!
Any hints?
Thanks for your interest.Till
18/01/2007 at 12:58 PM #8572fizzeParticipantMoinmoin nach Hamburg. ๐
Either your router doesn’t properly allow multicasts.
What router are you running? I suspect a WRT54 of some sort;)
What does the syslog say?
if mt-daapd is unable to acces the mp3_dir, it terminates.
For a test you could just specify an empty directory where the mt-daapd user has read permissions, so it would come up and you could access the web-interface.18/01/2007 at 1:24 PM #8573steinb_iParticipantIt is a ASUS 500g Delux and i think it schould support multicast
mt-daapd is able to access the mp3 dir and it add the songs to the database. So far it works fine. The web-interface does not work. After logging in I only get error pages. I think this is a conflict with the native web interface of openWRT but I’m not sure about that. I can live without the web interface thats not the problem.
The bigger problem is that the server does not show up in iTunes. When the client comes up I can see the client packages with tcp-dump. But it looks like the server does not answer.18/01/2007 at 2:50 PM #8574CCRDudeParticipantSince Fireflys (mt-daapds) admin pages are on port 3689, I doubt they would conflict with the native web interface.
If you could post those errors here, maybe they’ll tell somebody something?
18/01/2007 at 3:39 PM #8575fizzeParticipanthm – can you post the source of the webpages, if you get any?
also CCRDude is right, there really shouldnt be any conflicts, albeit you set the port to 80 ๐
Can you run mt-daapd with -d 9 and post the log?
be aware though, that log level is really verbosive.19/01/2007 at 5:40 PM #8576steinb_iParticipantFirst Debug messages:

20/01/2007 at 7:32 AM #8577fizzeParticipantok, this looks like the classy “nightly installed over 0.2.4” issue. ๐
remove your mt-daapd.conf, and reinstall from the nightly. The old config file isnt compatible with the new one.
20/01/2007 at 10:14 AM #8578steinb_iParticipantThat was not the nightly package. It was a package from openWrt.org.
See: http://www.ipkg.be/package/2043919I’m not able to install the nightly, cause I can not satisfy the dependencies.

It looks like it’s advertising itself. Do have you “search for shared music” enabled in your iTunes preferences?
20/01/2007 at 5:43 PM #8580steinb_iParticipantyes! iTunes finds another mt-daapd that is running on a Ubuntu sysytem. The problem must be on the openWRT system
