Hi Patrick,

I've just finished installing Rivendell 2.1.1 from Source on Ubuntu 11.10 and 
can confirm that Rivendell works fine if you do a scratch build.  I suspect the 
problem lies in incorrectly configured deb files as you said you installed from 
the debs?

Can you run "rdimport --verbose BEDS path_to_some_wav_file"

and paste the output back here?

As an example I get the following output:

wayne@UBUMEZZ:/usr/local/libexec$ rdimport --verbose BEDS ~/*.wav

RDImport v2.1.1
 Log mode is OFF
 Normalization level = -13 dB
 AutoTrim level = -30 dB
 Destination cart is AUTO
 Single cart mode is OFF
 Delete source mode is OFF
 Delete cuts mode is OFF
 DropBox mode is OFF
 Start Date Offset = 0 days
 End Date Offset = 0 days
 Broken format workarounds are DISABLED
 Import Create Dates mode is OFF
 Files to process:
   "/home/wayne/dummy-message.wav"

 Importing file "dummy-message.wav" to cart 040001 ... OK

I seem to remember when I've had problems before the OK at the end turns into 
the error you're describing.

Instead of just leaving it there heres a few steps to check.  On a scratch 
Ubuntu build, the Rivendell importing web files live in /usr/local/libexec.  Is 
that where rdxport.cgi and others are located for you?

The libexec directory is owned by root:root for me with rwxr-xr-x permissions.  
Apache2 is also running as either root or www-data.

Finally, make sure your apache is configured with the Rivendell conf file too.  
Inside /etc/apache2/conf.d I have the file "rd-bin.conf".  Do you have that?  
Do the directories on this also match /usr/local/libexec?

The important lines are line 23: <Directory "/usr/local/libexec"> and line 50: 
ScriptAlias /rd-bin/ "/usr/local/libexec/"

Hope it helps either way.

Regards,

Wayne

Sorry to clarify it's not the web browser saying invalid URL... it's
rdlibrary saying that when trying to import music.

I checked permissions of rdimport as well as rdxport.cgi and they are all
the same as when rivendell was installed
