Airtime on CentOS [working now!]
OK. I'm now working on the prerequisites for 2.4.1. *sigh* #backtothedrawingboard

Porting to CentOS, hit a snag with php/apache and the UI.
Hoerich - that was EXACTLY the problem, AND the solution!!! THANK YOU. I will be posting my script for CentOS installation of Airtime 2.3.1 shortly, and next I will have a script for updating from 2.3.x -> 2.4.0. WOOOOO! (for anyone reading al…

Anyone? I've got the rest of the build/install script done, I just can't figure this bit out. I want to publish my script, but I want this fixed before I share it with everyone.

It's going to be a bit - probably a week or two.

@Martin have you a list of airtime dependencies with minimal version available somewhere ? That would help significantly. Right now I'm going of the centos.sh script that Martin was kind enough to put together for airtime 2.2.0 - which is how…

So... based on further testing, it appears to be hanging because it is attempting to populate the cc_show_instances table with the scheduled instances of the show all the way through the heat death of the universe.

So I looked directly at the database and the cc_show_instances table had over a hundred thousand entries - some of the shows had instances in there all the way through the year 2257. I did a "delete from cc_show_instances WHERE starts > (now…

here's the relevant lines for a few instances of the issue from the psql logs: LOG: database system was shut down at 2013-02-15 02:11:53 ESTLOG: autovacuum launcher startedLOG: database system is ready to accept connectionsLOG: received fa…

on further review it looks like that also happens when the postmaster process pegs the CPU at 100%. Airtime is unable to reach the database because the process is completely locked.

BTW, taking a quick look at the zendphp.log, for over 2 hours it complains about being unable to connect to the database. 2013-02-15T07:06:32+00:00 INFO (6): [Preference.php : getValue() : line 134] - Could not connect to database: Unable to open PD…

I search for silan and all I find is that it's an obscure ethernet chipset.

Well aware that CentOS is not supported. It keeps me on my toes. (But a free server is a free server...) here's the full list of installed packages. If you want me to pare it down point me towards a list of dependencies and I'll give you…

I just did the update last night and haven't had a chance to review all the logs to do post-upgrade cleanup. First priority was to get the streams back online, then I tested functionality and ran into the issue with the lockup on indefinite rep…

I'm on CentOS. So if there's a clear indication of anything that's messed up, please let me know.

It was more the problems I ran into because I've got multiple websites - so I have to specifically call out the full URL in the main and API config files - and I forget every time I upgrade. Just trying to be better about documenting all the li…

Well, I can't really test this out on my production server, but I ran into enough headaches doing the update form 2.2.1 to 2.3.0 that I built a CentOS virtual machine in parallels so that I can test out the install and update scripts. Once I g…

I've got postgresql 8.4.13 across the board. Should I be running 9.1 instead?

And..... I found the solution. The default install of Monit on centos had restricted the process to only permit access from localhost to localhost. I disabled those lines in the monit.conf file and everything works great now. Not sure why that would…

Well, I installed lsb_release, and when checking to see if monit was installed I saw that it was already there and doing its job appropriately. That even tipped me off to my issue with the media-monitor so I was able to fix that (simple permissions …

Porting Airtime to CentOS
Sorry - to be more descriptive: 1) I'm not able to see the status of the playout, liquidsoap, or media-monitor systems, either from the web interface or from the command-line utility. 2) I'm not able to add files to the library, which mea…

AutoDJ unless I say otherwise?
I'm in the same boat - running a music streaming station and would like to schedule shows, and have a default playlist that automatically plays if nothing is scheduled.
