I am having a similar problem.  MP3 files play wiithout problem but AAC
(.m4a) files
fail with "Can't open file for:" on the display and "ERROR: Couldn't
open song."
in slimserver.log.

With d_source (debugging) set I also see:
openSong on: ....
openSong: getting duration  , size , endian  and offset 0 for ...
openSong: not bothering opening file with zero size or duration

The file URL (replaced by ..., here) looks correct.

I am using slimserver 6.2.1 on Linux.  The files and directory tree are
accessible
for the slimserver user.  I can view the information for the song, it
knows the
file type, file size, title, album and artist but nothing else.

These files worked with slimserver verison 6.0.2 so I'm reasonably sure
the files
are intact, not corrupt and playable.  I am using the same
configuration for
converting aac (mov) files to MP3 using faad and lame as I had for
slimserver 6.0.2.

I cannot tell if there's a problem reading the file, extracting the tag
or other song
information, running the fadd or lame converters, or what? Are there
any other traces
I could enable to try and find the trouble?
