Thanks - 

Unlikely - I have Ann external 2.5  2TB LaCie HDD which I bought about 1/2 year 
ago.

The data partition tor LMS has 86GB left, the Music partition > 1TB.

Obviously it could be failing - I will check this evening.

After I tried to scan again yesterday evening as quite a few titles were 
missing, the library was empty again this morning… Apart from the album I 
navigated to via the “Music Folder” browser.

Having read your reply and all the others that followed, all of which
bring up valid points, it will really boil down to how much effort you
want to perform the initial installation -and- the maintenance effort
required moving forward.

It sounds like you're technically inclined enough to install a native
Linux install, or to use one of the many solutions out there.
And yes, there is something to be said about 'rolling your own' as
opposed to using a distro that suddenly goes unmaintained.

If you have the time, or enjoy the challenge, plop in an old used drive
if you have one and try all the solutions mentioned for a week or two
and see what -you- like the best!

- cleaning cache/Templates is kind of safe - BUT unless its filled

  Last Time i had to do this was after Michael removed a help section
  (IMHO for the xml Skin) and i want to see the change.
- The other Folders are back when you using the gui

No special steps to prepare your PC, BUT if you want to copy information
from your existing internal hard drive first then you must do this
BEFORE installing Daphile. You have an option run a temporarily run a
“live” USB version of Daphile, however if you want to install it fully
it will take over your HD and completely erase it! Caution Caution
Caution... yes, Completely Erased. (It prompts you MANY times before it
lets you do this, but it would be a permanent change)

I strongly recommend that you able plug an external USB HD in and then
copy everything you need from the internal HD to the external HD before
you install ANY of the software that is recommended in this thread.

I also have multiple players and use (and love) iPeng on my iOS devices

Yes - you can enable a fileserver function from the settings menu once
Daphile is installed.

Yes.


do?  It solved my problem, but I was somewhat nervous about it.  There
were two other subdirectories in there that did not get regenerated, one
'opt' (containing an old, different, version of LMS) and the other
'storage' (which is also the name of a root directory that contains my
'music' directory as well as other stuff).


The folder structure would indeed represent the folder structure where 
your LMS or plugins are stored. But it's only to map the folders, 
wouldn't be links or the like.



Assuming it is safe to clear this out, is it recommended whenever
installing a new version?  If so, could the installation process do that
automatically?


It shouldn't be necessary. I can't remember having seen this odd 
behaviour in a long, long time (if at all).

It was as simple as changing the motherboard battery. Turns out the PC
didn't want to boot when the battery had just a little power left in it,
enough to confuse the BIOS but not enough to feed the boot process. It
was a lot cheaper than a new computer!

I bit the bullet.  I stopped LMS, copied the directories elsewhere and
deleted the lot (rm -rf ...), and restarted.  No change. I still get
that screen.  I then cleared my firefox history once again and tried
again. No change.  So I restarted firefox.

And now it works!

Thanks so much for all your help.

My LMS isn't from vortexbox - that's just the hardware.  I just didn't

Allow me to comment on these, even if it wasn’t my original post. I set

effort was painless, but it did involve just a bit of Linux knowledge as

I don't know what you mean by "do they tune something to something
unusable".  
The url you supplied (with my LMS IP address) gives the same screen
(just fills the window).

Hm - my replies via email are not here.

Player: web gui and iPeng - the same.

No local music showing EXCEPT one album I browsed to using "Music

"Clear Library and scan everything" scan option.

My guess: the DB is corrupted. Is there a way I can delete the local
music DB?

Thanks Michael, but what does "Full Text Search" mean?  What, when ,
where , how?  I don't understand what it applies to, what text is being
referred to, what search, etc. Sorry for being so slow.

As to My Music, I never noticed that Search option. It's set to 'within
words' so should work.

A log sample for searching for Artist Beethoven gives:


Code:


  [18-12-02 11:20:54.5170] Slim::Schema::Debug::query_start (23) SELECT COUNT( 
* ) FROM (SELECT me.id FROM tracks me LEFT JOIN contributor_track 
contributorTracks ON contributorTracks.track = me.id LEFT JOIN contributors 
contributor ON contributor.id = contributorTracks.contributor WHERE ( ( 
contributor.namesearch = ? AND ( contributorTracks.role = ? OR 
contributorTracks.role = ? OR contributorTracks.role = ? OR 
contributorTracks.role = ? OR contributorTracks.role = ? ) AND me.audio = ? ) ) 
GROUP BY me.id) count_subq: '%BEETHOVEN%', '1', '5', '2', '4', '3', '1'
  [18-12-02 11:20:55.0204] Slim::Schema::Debug::query_start (23) SELECT me.id,

FROM progress me WHERE ( type = ? ) ORDER BY start,id: 'importer'
  [18-12-02 11:20:59.8829] Slim::Schema::Debug::query_start (23) SELECT me.id, 
me.type, me.name, me.active, me.total, me.done, me.start, me.finish, me.info

  [18-12-02 11:21:05.0030] Slim::Schema::Debug::query_start (23) SELECT me.id,

And carries on repeating the latter.  I know some SQL but I have to say
I don't understand how the ? marks are meant to work in this.

Linux is a OS and a OS is nothing else but a tool.
And if you only got a hammer as a tool all problem looks like a nail.
So using the best tool for solving a problem  is always a good choice.

An old Notebook may work better on linux - and Microsoft with their
Win10 "always update the whole system every half/full year doesnt help
anyone (IMHO).

If you deel better with the win OS - that might be the better tool for
you.

In my case my lms has no monitor or a keyboard and its running lms and

But i just set it up once - i didnt need a fancy gui for the mouse to
add a network share.
Of curse there are solutions that provides a gui to manage network
shares.

My search field says 'Artist', not 'Artist contains'.  I wonder if there
is a difference here.

I've not used library views.  I have a vague recollection that I read
that they didn't work if you use Erland's libraries, which I do, so I've
never investigated, and have no idea at all how I would save a search. 
Anyway, that's not my main problem.  

If I enter anything in any one of just Artist, Track, or Album, and
nothing else, I get nothing found.  I'll try to get a log.

Great post! Thanks!
Don't I know it!  The older I get the harder it gets to "recover" old
hidden knowledge from the internal HD ;)

There have been so many answers to this thread so I'm about to lose the
overview over all the suggestions.

Am I right if I assume you suggest that I install Linux on the PC? 
That would work well for both LMS and network HD?
There will also be good Linux software for ripping and editing music?

Did I get it right that someone suggested running LMS from a USB stick

A text file can be zipped into very small - so an extract of the log
file zipped will easily fit the limits.  Make sure extension is ".zip"
as there are restrictions on file extensions can be attached.  

To attach use the "manage Attachements" button when creating the post -
in the manage attachement click on the "add files" button in top right
of popup and then "choose file".

My Solution looks always like this:

- One small Harddrive for the OS
- Another Drive for the asset - in this case a music library
- If i dont need a CD Drive and using a old notebook i change the CD
  Drive for a adaptor that changes the CD to a SATA disk.
  Not all Notebooks - just the advanced ones - supports two Harddisks.
  
So always use separate Disks for OS and Library. eg. a small ssd with
120GB is fast costs mostly nothing and 120 GB is enough for a OS only
device.
If your library is grown up and your Disk is full you can copy the
library from one disk to the new one much easier than if its just one
the same disk.
Yes i know Clonezilla doesnt care about it - but someone who asks for
help must not know about clonezilla and so on.

No. Advanced Search is supposed to give you more control. Therefor not

Thanks for all the excellent contributions above! No doubt all good
suggestions! The Rasberry PI looks really cool and may be my choice when
the PC finally dies.

markm:
What I did not mention in my original post was that I also have a
serious health issue, so when the PC got the blue screen (and I read
about the issues with this windows update) I started a recovery of the
previous update. When I got no longer than to the boot menu after the
recovery, I kind of gave up. Although I have not tried I am sure I can
get to the boot menu and sort out some problems there. I've just not
been up to it yet.

NAS and Amahi are not important - just "words" I read while looking for
possible LMS server alternatives. Having recently turned 60 words in ads
like "one-click-solutions" sounds more and more tempting to me -
although I am at the moment (off topic!) working hard to learn the
complex JOSM software for Openstreetmap.org.

The music 4TB HD in the old PC is not that old. It will probably still
run for years.
I would, however, like to have at least another HD there for backup
purposes. I've put so much work into that library!

I am replacing the old PC with a laptop now. Because of that, it would
be nice to have some kind of network disk together with LMS in that old
PC. That is all.  If Daphile can do that, great, if not - well LMS is,
as I said, what really counts here!

Hi,

always remember one thing:

You need some knowledge for everything.

If you run out of the box systems like vortexbox or daphile - the point
where you need the knowledge is NOT at the time you setup the OS / PC.
eg Vortexbox is based on a very old Fedora and Daphile is based on
Gentoo. And Gentoo is a OS that really needs a geek.

So These solutions always live and die with their Maintainer.
If you use these solutions and you never need any asistence - your fine.
If you need help for a specific problem at the time these maintainers do
other stuff your lost.

Using "normal" OS and learn what to do to get lms and samba (Network
Disk) up and running.
And you can ask "more" people (debian/ubuntu whatever is used not just
for lms purposes)

Thanks. 
So Daphile is some sort of freeware like Linux, just dedicated to music
and LMS and running on any old PC hardware? Sounds interesting.
What will I have to do with my old PC to prepare it for this - and what
about installing hard drives and copying data from old to new HD?

I have a Squeezebox Duet synced with a Squeezebox radio in the living
room and kitchen. These are controlled by Ipeng on iPads and iPhone.
I also listen a lot to music streaming to Ipeng on my iPhone or iPad.

Would it be possible to use the Daphile HDs as some kind of network
disks as well?

A library view is a way to view only a part of your full library. I did
an advanced search for years in the range 1970-1979 etc and saved the
results of the search as a library view. This allows me to :view all the
tracks from that decade and nothing else.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "field" from artist or 'additional
box'.  Do you mean the Artist has to be (say) "Composer AND Artist" or
"Composer OR Artist"?
