Hi,

There was talk that the cddb lookup uses ports that are commonly blocked I think someone found a way around it but you'll have to search the list.

As for mysql, usually when you install you are prompted for the mysql root password.

You can reset it if you're having trouble:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html#resetting-permissions-unix

I'm not sure what you're chown'ing for MySQL but you shouldn't need to touch that at all.

Changing the cart numbers is not recommended or possible within Rivendell. It simply doesn't work that way. I work with a similar system to you where I have TEMP where everything gets vetted before going into the relevant categories.

The practicalities of this is you need a large TEMP number range and very small category ranges (mostly for manual imports where you create the carts first).

I never had much luck setting groups with overlapping cart numbers as you get errors that won't let you save overlapping sets.

Hi All,

I have just done a new install on a Dell PC for the local Primary School to get their School FM Station up and running.

I followed all the information that was on the Wiki for Post Installation and all appeared to go well.

I am now going through the process of adding music to the PC.

I note however that I cannot get the "Apply FreeDB to Cart" to allow me to tick the check box.

In my other machine it works well. I am connected to the internet, so this should not be the problem.

Also I tried to access the Mysql using the PC login password, which didn't work. Found the Wiki information on how to set the password to the same as in rd.cong, but it would not work in terminal with the chown command. The inquiry said I had root root, so I tried to change it to user:group as the paper said.

And while I am at it, is there a way to change the cart number to a new cart number.

I would like to have the kids put new music into the TEMP carts and then have them changed later (once the music can be checked as acceptable for the school) to MUSIC carts. I have found that I can change the group, but the cart number stays the same as originally entered. Would like to change them to the MUSIC portion?

Just had a thought, maybe I have to make the TEMP group, set to the same number for carts as MUSIC?

Regards

Kevin
