Hello,

Im new with airtime and im having a problem after what apparently was a no error install...

Im using a openvz vps with ubuntu 10.04 as a guest and the problem is that wen i try to ad a media file, the file doesnt show up in the playlist builder

all it says is "No data available in table"

The mp3 files were store in /srv/airtime/stor/organize/

and are owned by ww-data

I dont know where to look :/ i was cheking folder permissions and they looks fine..

Again, my setup is this one:

Openvz VPS 512 Ram
Ubuntu 10.04
Airtime 1.9.4
Icecast on same server

I'll really appreciated if anybody give me a hand here...

thanks.

Hi Amauri,

This is a known problem on some hosted platforms. This appears to be the solution:

I have reinstalled the vps, followed the system preparation/. i have no sound, and im in a fresh ubuntu 10.04 64bit, so no webmin, no Rabitmq.

Then, started the installation process, no error at the moment..

The Installation went trough just fine..,

Double chek the Post Installation steps

But still no joy :( , it doesn't even upload the file.

Update: after restarting the server, airtime-check-system still says everything is ok but still cant upload any media, tested with all mayor browsers.

How is this possible? 4 fresh reinstall and nothing :/

adding :

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

on the first line of

nano /usr/lib/airtime/media-monitor/MediaMonitor.py

resolve this problem in a lot of cases for me ;)

You guys wont believe this... Earlier, i was truly having problems showing the media on the playlist builder.

If you read back I told that after my 4th install there was a new error, I wasn't able to upload the files at all.

That wasn't true! It was my fault, I completely forgot to hit the start upload after +Add files, it was like i was waiting for airtime to do it on the fly..

so now that i wake up feeling to give another try to airtime, this time i did get notice of the button and the file uploaded and it is on the playlist builder. :)

I don't know which one of these modification made the trick, but it is worth to give a try

added the following to my /etc/fstab/

none dev/shm tmpfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec 0 0

added # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

to /usr/lib/airtime/media-monitor/MediaMonitor.py

Thanks all for your help :)

The first item is definitely the cause of the fix. The second item isn't related to your problem in this case

LINE 92 - Exception: name 'multi_queue' is not defined - this is caused when you are on a hosting environment like Amazon S3, and shared memory between processes is disabled by default.

Martin Konecny

I'd actually recommend undoing the " # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-" change, because now you are running a custom version of Airtime, and any problems you experience in the future may not be reproducible by us.

Amauri Berroa

Hello,

I just removed the # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- part, rebooted and everything is fine..

Thanks Martin.

PS: i guest that you mean Amazon EC2 right?

Hi guys,
I am having the same problem. I can upload files to server and they all appear in /srv/airtime/stor/imported . However, none of them are added to the library.

I've added the line to /etc/fstab and I even tried with the extra line in media_monitor.py , but still nothing.
When I restart RabbitMQ. I can see in the logs file that it finds all my files. In fact, every time I upload an mp3, I get this on the media-monitor.log

2013-07-13 01:01:16,869 INFO - [Thread-1] [owners.py : get_owner()] : LINE 12 - Received owner for /srv/airtime/stor/imported/2/Mana/Mana/1-Robot-128kbps.mp3. Owner: 2

2013-07-13 01:01:20,352 INFO - [Thread-8] [request.py : run_request()] : LINE 54 - Request was successful

It seems like everything is OK, but my media library is empty. One particular thing I've noticed: using the console, if I cd into any dir with spaces in its name (say "Amy Winehouse"), I get this message:

root@airtime imported/2# cd Amy\ Winehouse/
dirname: extra operand `Winehouse'
Try `dirname --help' for more information.
dirname: missing operand
Try `dirname --help' for more information.
-bash: [: =: unary operator expected

Maybe that's a clue for you guys. For me it's like chinese :D

Thanks for any help!

Howdy, Stranger!
