Imported files do not appear in the library - Airtime 2.3

    This is a little complicated but I will do my best to describe my setup. I have a massive music library that is about 80 GB located on a network USB drive. All of the music files are in a directory called "music" on the USB drive.  I've mounted the network drive to my Airtime server. The Airtime server is able to read and write to the network drive and sees all of the files without any issues. 

    I created a separate directory on the network drive and named it "airtime". I changed the library directory in Airtime to the mounted "airtime-music" directory located on the network drive. 

    After I configured my  library directory, I ran the "sudo airtime-import -m /music" command. All of the files have been moved from the /airtime-music/organize directory into the /airtime-music/imported directory.  

    The problem I'm having is that I can't find certain songs when I search the library even though they are in the "imported" directory. With large imports does it take Airtime a long time to add everything to the DB? Has anybody else had this issue and is there a way to get Airtime to include everything that's in the imported folder without having to re-import everything. It took 2 days to import everything and I would like to avoid having to go through this process again. Also, is there a tool similar to phpMyAdmin or MySQL workbench that will allow me to view the PostgreSQL DB?
    Thanks,Ben

    Hey, Ben,

    What's the output in /var/log/airtime/media-monitor/media-monitor.log and /var/log/airtime/zendphp.log after you executed "airtime-import -m /music"?

    Forgive me, but I'm a bit of newbie when it comes to command line stuff. How would I get that information?

    Please run:
    less /var/log/airtime/media-monitor/media-monitor.log
    and 
    less /var/log/airtime/zendphp.log

    Then look for the items after the time you run that cmd.

    Or
    You can zip the whole folder /var/log/airtime, upload to here and tell us the time you move your tracks.

    So, I need to move the tracks again in order to troubleshoot the problem?

    Update: So I can see the song I was looking for now but it's taken almost 4 days to appear. Attached is the logs.

    Hey, Ben,
    I'm wondering the following step can fix your problem:
    "
    sudo apt-get remove silan
    "
    That will disable track silence detection.

    That killed the whole airtime install. I'm re-installing now.

    Oh, in that case, you may need to run:
     sudo dpkg -r --ignore-depends=airtime silan
    instead of directly remove silan. Please refer to this post:
