I honestly don't know if the main server is sharing the audio at all I'm afraid From: [email protected] To: [email protected] CC: [email protected] Subject: RE: [RDD] No Play out on Cart Wall Date: Fri, 22 May 2015 15:39:57 +0100
when I type the ls command in the [root@rdclienta snd] directory I am not getting a list of the wav files we have over 3000 wav files on the main server so it seems it is not seeing the wav files on the server it is seeing the database though From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [RDD] No Play out on Cart Wall Date: Fri, 22 May 2015 15:35:08 +0100 I've got the passwords with the system so I can log in as root I have gained access to the cd /var/snd via clienta output from sudo chmod a+rwx /var/snd/*.wav is chmod: cannot access /var/snd/*.wav no such file or directory. output from ls -l /var it is a fairly long list but this is the snd (drwxrwxrwx 2 Rivendell Rivendell 4096 Apr 9 12:26 snd (the snd is highlighted in red)) Date: Fri, 22 May 2015 15:15:12 +0100 From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [RDD] No Play out on Cart Wall Hi, It looks like you might be using the Rivendell appliance I'm not sure what the root password is, its something you usually set when you install it. The missing operand thing was because you missed a space between a+rwx <space> /var/snd. It wouldn't work anyway as you would need to be root to do it. We can check the permissions to see if they are what they should be: ls -l /var There will be lines like this: drwxr-xr-x 145 administrator administrator 32768 May 22 00:00 audio You can also try logging in as root instead of the default rd user but obviously you'll need to know your root password for that. All we're interested in checking is whether /var/snd is full of wav files or if its empty.

You could open up the whole directory but from a security stand point its not always a good thing. Try sudo chmod a+rwx /var/snd If that lets you cd and ls to see all the files but it still won't play try doing the same to the files: sudo chmod a+rwx /var/snd/*.wav If that works then it is permissions and we can go about restricting them back down.

In that case, linux can map directories to different places. For example you can take a remote server and map its directory to a local directory. The difference between Windows and Linux is that linux treats it like a normal directory and all applications have no clue they're working remotely. In windows things generally just break if you try that with shortcuts or whatever. If you check your local /var/snd if the directory is mapped remotely correctly you should see all the wav files in there. If it is empty or only has a few files then the mapping is broken. You'd have to check your server to see if you have set up NFS shares properly (/etc/exports) and your local machine to see if it is mapped (/etc/fstab).

You can try killing caed, rdcatchd and ripcd before reopening airplay to see if they pick up the changes. Otherwise check rdadmin and edit hosts to see what audio resources Rivendell thinks are available on each machine.
