Well, okay, let's start working this one out instead of getting all sidelined. We're volunteers and as a community we should just get on with this, eh? I know the no-money feeling (my desktop PC just died, now looking at £1k to get a new one sorted out).

So - check /var/log/syslog.log, /var/log/daemons.log for any issues. For added points, do this:

* Shut down rivendell daemons, apache2 and any open applications (sudo service rivendell stop; sudo service apache2 stop;)
* Start up the daemons, apache2, and rdlibrary.
* Grab a 'ps faux' at this point, and 'tail -n 1500 /var/log/syslog.log' (and again for daemons.log)
* Import a file
* Grab the two logs again
* Upload everything to http://pastie.org or http://gist.github.com (the latter does multiple files better - make sure you label each appropriately as before/after)

You could also check /var/log/apache2/error.log (I think - doing this all off memory!), just grab that afterwards. Armed with that info we can probably make some progress here.

(The root issue is that Rivendell isn't very good at being specific about errors with this stuff - I have some spare time this week and might submit a patch to improve things here)

Okay sorry I misread the messages. I have no money for professional services... and I have constantly been angry at the fact that I have no income and cannot work because of my mental and physical conditions... thus almost everything that costs money I cannot partake in. Urgh I feel this world was not supposed to invent money in the first place.

Anyway, I will wait... it appears with my ISP I will have to delay my plans with my station anyway. Please do reply though, when you get more info on this problem. Thanks!

    Well alright if you guys do not want to help me then I'll have
    nothing to do with Rivendell. Where in my previous message did I
    mention anything to do with professional technical support?

    ...and why are you talking about this sounding like technical
    support instead of community help, instead of helping me out with
    what I really need help on... RDImport?

    ...and I cannot go with any professional solution... I have no
    money to do so. Sorry.

        Might I recommend Rivendell from Paravell Systems. They know a
        lot about the product and seem a reasonable bunch. I'm sure
        you would find the support very good. They have a turn key
        solution with all the bells and whistles.

        You understand that you are not talking to some support line
        for a product that you paid for don't you. This a a community
        forum where help is given on a voluntary basis when people
        have time. If you expect to demand a response may I say
        suggest you purchase a product.

            Hello.

            I've been having a lot of troubles lately trying to set
            up a new installation of Rivendell 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 11.10
            (and do NOT tell me that this was not meant for Ubuntu
            11.10... I looked at that page with regards to that and
            did everything on it... it should work properly but it
            does not. Not only that but there was no clear
            documentation that it was not meant for Ubuntu 11.10.).

            Anyway problem is when I upload (or try to upload) a file
            to rdlibrary I get "Invalid URL". Here's what I did:

            *I have verified my IP address was correct in Rivendell.
            *I verified Apache is working correctly.
            *I verified the Rivendell cgi scripts were able to be
            accessed from my IP.
            *I verified the freeDB url was correct...
            freedb.freedb.org <http://freedb.freedb.org>.

            This started happening randomly. Rdimport was working
            fine before (with the exception of uploading music at a
            lower pitch than it should be... which I'm trying to
            fix... but now I can't with this problem).

            Please tell me what's up and how to fix it. Please also
            respond when you have received this message and you are
            on it trying to find a solution. Thank you!
