Every media file appears corrupt on upload (Airtime 2.3.1) - Airtime Support Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

Patrick Schmalstig

Greetings.

I have installed Airtime 2.3.1 on Ubuntu Studio 12.04

Airtime installation checks OK.

Monit reports the three services are online and good.

The problem: When trying to upload ANY form of media to the library, the interface reports that the file appears corrupted and will not be added.

Log files are HELPLESS (all they indicate is that file stored in tmp... file copied to store (but actually it really wasn't copied!). However, after injecting code into StoredFile.php to save output data to a log file when checking for MPEG tags, I get the following:

VST_PATH not set, defaulting to /usr/local/lib/vst:/usr/lib/vst

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error'

what(): basic_string::_S_construct null not valid

Aborted (core dumped)

Help would greatly be appreciated!

Oh and yes my mp3 files do work.

Pierre Coovert

Has anyone got an answer to this problem. I have searched the internet and the forum and have not found an answer that works.

Martin Konecny

What's your OS? What file types are you uploading?

I am using ubuntu studio 13 on one computer and ubuntu 12.04 on another. I have tried loading mp3, ogg, and wav files, all with the same results

Martin Konecny

Take a look into /var/log/airtime/zendphp.log - is there anything obvious there?

Martin Konecny

try playing one of the files from the command line like so

liquidsoap 'output.dummy(single("/path/to/file"))'

Sounds like Liquidsoap is complaining about a missing VST audio plugin.

Pierre Coovert

thanks for your response. I am relatively new to Linux and am trying to make the change.

As for the log file, here is what is added when I try to upload a file:

2013-06-06T17:31:16-04:00 INFO (6): [StoredFile.php : uploadFile() : line 857] - /usr/share/airtime/application/models/StoredFile.php:uploadFile(): filename=p17sdmd1qr2kfl55rskl7psi04.mp3 to /tmp/plupload

When I try to run the lliquidsoap line I get: Invalid value at line 1, char 20-58: That source is fallible

Doesn't mean much to me, but maybe I didn't type the command right. Here is what I typed: liquidsoap 'output.dummy(single("home/music/TheBurdenOfAProphet.mp3"))'

It says the source is fallible, because you didn't insert the correct path.
Make sure you start with "/home..." instead of "home..."

Pierre Coovert

Thanks, but I get the same response.

Martin Konecny

Double check if the file actually exists at that location. I believe you
are missing username in the path.

Sorry I have been so long in responding. You were right, the username was missing. However, when I add it I still get the same response. The properties for the fail list that path as "/home/pierre/Music" and that is what I used the last time.

Are we trying to determine if the file is corrupted? I don't think it is because it plays fine in Audacious and other players I have tried.

Martin Konecny

We're trying to see what Liquidsoap says about that file. It could be a Liquidsoap issue.

The output is still source if fallible? If so, the path is still wrong.

Hi

I have exactly the same problem. I just tried to use airtime today (after tried Rivendell which seems to be very complicated BUT it has played the files !!), and all the files i tried are "corrupted". I know they are not corrupted at all. Files are played without any problem by another automation software on windows (sorry lol), and also on the computer i'm using for tests, files are well played by audacious and so on... so i don't understand at all.I use Airtime 2.5.1, and Ubuntu 12.04 with a low-latency kernel.

I get this when trying to play stereo tracks to a mono stream and vice versa and also on some variants of mp3 marked as level 2 on layer 3.
Check the Airtime Liquid Soap log. Thats where I found it. It said source incompatable with mp3 tracks 2 or similar and plays silence for the time of the track. The silence fallback did NOT kick in.
Devs said it has been fixed. It is not. The proof is in the log.

Jean-Philippe Planque

I don't want to use stream for the moment, i just want to try to use airtime in a fm station. I tried again to send a file this morning and i just found that my copied file was in /tmp/plupload. Any idea ?

Albert FR

send yours logs
and try to update too
2.5.1 is here, and have a lot of enhancements :-)

P.S. : tu peux aussi écrire dans la zone fr du forum

John Chewter

Are the stor folders writable? 755

Jean-Philippe Planque

tried a new installation, and result is... the same thing. :-w
What logs should i send ?

Albert FR

your hostname is it well define ?

Apache2 / hosts ?

Jean-Philippe Planque

hmm.. what is the exact command to type for apache ?

another thing : i just tried the command airtime-import, and it works well.

Albert FR

normal

airtime-import don't use the same protocol

you cans find information about your apache declaration here :

/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/

and for hosts

/etc/hosts

Jean-Philippe Planque

ok i will try that later, anyway thanks for the help. Airtime is running now and it seems to be very stable (we just have a storm right now and the computer had to restart, and airtime started automatically, a good point !)

Howdy, Stranger!
