I've just completely rebuilt my WinXP PC with new hardware. Catching up with
mail, I read that MySQL is now used in the latest trunk. I thought it would be
best to install the latest MySQL complete package and ran the configuration
wizard that comes with that installation.
I downloaded the latest 6.5 nightly release and ran it. I could access the
server.
I then set my machine up to run the latest trunk source using ActivePerl,
configuring a service "slimtrunk" using srvany.exe.
I then ran my "slimtrunk" service, but it didn't work.
My slimserver.pref file contained:
dbsource: dbi:mysql:hostname=127.0.0.1;port=9092;database=%s
Is the port correct? I installed MySQL with the default port (3306? - not
sure).
I then found an article in the Wiki for MySQL, so I then changed
slimserver.pref to use:
dbsource: dbi:mysql:database=%s
I entered the db username and password.
The wiki actually says to use the actual database name, but %s seems to get
expanded by the server code - not sure where it gets the DB name from though.
Does this sound correct so far?
I seem to have a running slimserver now (haven't tried scanning though), but I
notice the following in the log, straight after startup:
Can't locate object method "mergeVariousArtistsAlbums" via package
"Slim::Schema" at P:/Music/SlimServer/trunk/server/Slim/Music/Import.pm line
115.
Can't locate object method "forceCommit" via package "Slim::Schema" at
P:\Music\SlimServer\trunk\server\slimserver.pl line 1006.
END failed--call queue aborted.
I haven't loaded any schema (the wiki did mention this) because I kind of
assumed that the server now does this if it doesn't exist?
