Zevs, it seems to me from your last long post that you may have two versions of MusicIP running as a service - one headless and one with the GUI. Couple of suggestions if you can bear it ? Change your Slimserver MusicMagic port setting to whichever port you want the headless version to use. Save the change. Stop Slimserver (right click the Slimserver Icon and select stop Slimserver). Go into the Slimserver folder and delete the Cache file entirely. Open up the user interface for MusicIP (not the headless webpage, double click the MIP icon). *Stop* the communication API in the user interface (File, Preferences, Services), click stop and make sure the API checkbox is unchecked. Open a command window (Start, Run, cmd) and type [net stop "MusicIP Server"] [deleting the square brackets] Open up the "mmm.ini" file in the MusicIP folder using a text editor. What does the line "port=" say ? Change it to whichever port you want MusicIP headless to use (same as the one you gave to Slimserver, save file, close. Open a command window (Start, Run, cmd) and type [net start "MusicIP Server"] [deleting the square brackets] Check you can access the API at http://localhost:10002/ Right click the Slimserver icon, start Slimserver. When it opens up, you should see it starting a completely fresh scan. It will only add the MM icons at the end of the scan, so you'll have to wait until it builds the Slimserver database first. Let us know if any of this helps. -- Siduhe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Siduhe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=723 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32299 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
