Hi Mailinglist!

I am trying to setup Rivendell 2.3.0 on a CentOS 6.3 system. I did some
extensive googling and wiki-reading and I think I managed. But one
strange error keeps popping up: When importing audio with RDLibrary I
get the error "Audio Converter Error: OK". I get the same error when
trying ti import audio using rdimport from the command line.

I also cannot delete carts, I get the error message "Unable to delete
audio!"

This problem has been reported before (e.g.
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rivendell-dev/1HUfoQQoJMk) but
as far as I can see it has not been solved. I tried all suggestions in
above thread, still no luck.

But the most strange thing is: I did a very similar installation
procedure on an Ubuntu 12.04 system and it immediately worked! Why am I
not using Ubuntu then? Well, my boss and company insist on CentOS,
that's why! :-)

I guess this is some file permission problem. Maybe somebody can help me
debug it? Here is what I did:

I have a user rivendell which is in groups rivendell and audio. This is
the user under which everything runs. User "apache" is also in the
rivendell and audio groups.

I have created /var/snd/ like so:
mkdir /var/snd/
sudo chown -R rivendell:rivendell /vars/snd/
sudo chmod -R 0775 /var/snd/

I don't really understand if and what the scripts/programs for the web
server might have to do with all of that, but I include the settings
here anyway. I read somewhere that setuid root some of them might help..?

Does anybody have an idea?
For starters, maybe a few simpler question questions: Can I turn up the
debug level somehow to see more detailed error messages? What are the
actual binaries doing the importing/converting?

Thanks for any useful feedback!
Andreas
