I had an airtime 1.8.2 automatic [sudo apt-get] install running on my Debian 6.0 computer which I couldn't get to stream correctly (which I posted about earlier). I tried uninstalling it unsuccessfully using apt-get remove and then got it back up using apt-get update.
At this point I did a manual upgrade to 1.9.0 which seemed to install perfectly and I overwrote all of the config files so the install should be default.
Airtime-check-system runs successfully [system setup looks ok] but it still says that my airtime version is 1.8.2 even though the web interface says 1.9.0.
My problem:
When I upload files in the web interface they do not show up in the playlist builder.
When I run airtime-import --storage-dir-get i get 'None'
when I run airtime-import --storage-dir-set (or any other airtime-import option) i get 'Unable to connect to Airtime Server'
Any help is greatly appreciated, I would be happy to post any logs of config files.

Hi Alex -
You should never install manually after installing debian packages, you will
mess up your system. We are going to put code in the manual install to
prevent this from happening in the future. The best thing to do right now
is to uninstall the debian package (as it is still installed on your
system), uninstall the 1.9.0 version, backup your config files and then
erase the originals, and then either reinstall 1.8.2 with the debian package
or 1.9.0 manually. But once you go one way, stick with that way. You
cannot mix and match.

and then run
cd ~/airtime-1.9.0/minimal_install
sudo ./airtime-uninstall
and then try to reinstall from there?
reformatting the system is an option I would like to avoid due to the amount of work that went into setting up the RAID drivers.

Ok, you should be fine then. The only other thing is the old media storage
directory. If you dont have anything in it worth keeping, you should remove
it (the directory is "/srv/airtime").
by your previous error, please make sure the Apache configuration file
(/etc/apache/sites-available) is pointing to the right folder.
airtime 1.9 default is /var/www/airtime

Secondly,got everything removed and reinstalled airtime 1.9.0 (manually). [You don't need to run sudo apt-get autoremove before re-installing]
The install script runs currectly ending with the check system which says:
liquidsoap engine looks to be continually restarting.
[protocols.external:3] couldn't find "ufetch"
[protocols.external:3] found "usr/bin/wget"
I will hit the FAQs but if you have any immediate suggestions they would be greatly appreciated as always.
Hi Alex,
I know it might sound tedious but now that you've installed Airtime 1.9 manually, please try to run a successful uninstall of airtime 1.9 (sudo ./airtime-uninstall)
remove /etc/airtime
and then run another installation of Airtime 1.9
(sudo ./airtime-install)
Since you only un-install version 1.8.2 and not 1.9, your system was not properly reverted to the pre-installed state.
ok so
./airtime-uninstall
sudo rm -rf /srv/airtime/
sudo rm -rf /etc/airtime/
./airtime-install
.... same thing.
liquidsoap engine looks to be continually restarting.
[protocols.external:3] couldn't find "ufetch"
[protocols.external:3] found "usr/bin/wget"
also alittle later
[dynamic.loader:2] Could not load plugins in directory /usr/local/lib/liquidsoap/1.0.0-beta2/plugins.
