    Dear all,

    My installation of airtime seems to be read only.

    I am using the web interface but i cant add new shows in
    calendar and i cant add new users or admins. The interface
    doesn't show any errors. When i try to add a new admin when
    i press the save button nothing happens. The user is not
    added on the left on the user list. When i try to add a new
    show in the calendar when i press the +Show button and fill
    in the show information and then press the +addThisShow
    button nothing happens. The show doesnt appear on the
    calendar and the +Show button disappears. I have to refresh
    the page to make it appear again.



    It feels like the intallation is read only and cant make
    changes to the underlying database. Any help??



    Thank you!

    Nick

    Hello! Which version of Airtime did you install? How'd you install it? And which OS are you running?

    Looks like their Debian release is too bleeding-edge new. Tell your team use Debian Wheezy instead...

    The upgrade to Debian testing was made because of sound problems we had with chopped sound due to an NVIDIA GPU. Of course we didn't know that the GPU card was the problem at that time, hence the upgrade to Debian testing. We can't revert it back to stable. This shouldn't be the case though as the system worked perfectly fine for almost 6 months or more. Is there anything I could try to figure out what is wrong?

    Is this normal?

    You're running the testing level of Debian, friend! It's absolutely not designed to be used in stable production environments. :)

    My advice is to install Airtime to a decent SSD VPS somewhere with Wheezy. If you'd rather keep your box in-house, just buy an inexpensive video card known to work with 7. Take that NVIDIA card out and put it to better use elsewhere.

    PM me if you'd like suggestions! :-c

    Would it be possible for you to downgrade your version of PHP? A quick Google reveals similar errors when using php 5.6.
