    Airtime seems like such a nice system, and I can't wait to get it working properly (a great alternative to ices0!). But I'm having quite a few issues on Ubuntu 10.04 (x86_64) VPS headless...

    Firstly, no audio files seem to be picked up by airtime, even ones uploaded by Airtime itself. Also, when loading the "stream" settings page, I get a:

    Can not connect to the streaming server

    Problem with Liquidsoap...


    Any ides? Below is the output of "airtime-check-system" - as you can see, there are many failed flags. Endless Googling didn't help, so I thought I'd ask here!


    Thanks in advance!

    There can sometimes be problems on VPS servers as the environment is slightly different and some features are disabled. 

    You can help us pinpoint the problem by doing

    tar czf airtime.log /var/log/airtime

    and posting the tarball here. 

    Alternatively simply look through the files media-monitor.log and pypo.log and post any relevant sections here.

    It appears that apache cannot find where Airtime at "http://localhost". By default media-monitor and pypo connect to http://localhost and try to obtain information about your environment.

    What URL are you using to access the Airtime web interface? If your domain is jon.com, Airtime login screen should pop up when you visit http://jon.com/

    This is what is appearing in the logs btw:

    Aha ok thanks.

    Where can I change that configuration to point to the correct domain?

    I'm also running Airtime on port 8000... not sure if that helps!

    Ok that's the problem right there :). 

    Make sure you update your port configuration in /etc/airtime/airtime.conf and /etc/airtime/api_client.cfg

    Reply to @Martin+Konecny: 

    Ahh thank you!! That's fantastic. Streaming is now working correctly.

    One more problem though... media files still aren't appearing in the system. Neither from the watched folders or uploaded mp3's...

    Any ideas?

    Did you restart the media-monitor service after making these changes?

    sudo service airtime-media-monitor restart
