I'm still struggling to get slimserver 6.5.3 running on any linux system. My home system is a Suse10.l, that has been long running with SS_6.3
In order to update to SS_6.5.3, i tried to uninstall the old rpm first, which failed for a unknown reason. Then I manually deleted all files related to slimserver. music:/home/voellenk # rpm -Uvh --force SlimServer_v6.5.3.noarch.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:slimserver ########################################### [100%] slimserver: unknown service Point your web browser to http://music:9000/ to configure your server. The rpm package created a startscript in /etc/init.d/init.d/slimserver , which I find is a pretty strange location. Instead, I copied the slimserver.init startscript for Suse from the wiki, and checked the permissions: music:/etc/init.d # l slim* -rwxr-xr-- 1 root root 1051 Oct 7 2006 slimserver.init* moreover, I also copied the suggested slimserver config from the wiki to /etc/sysconfig/slimserver: music:/etc/init.d # cat /etc/sysconfig/slimserver # Edit this to suit your setup SLIMSERVER_USER="slimserver" SLIMSERVER_GROUP="users" SLIMSERVER_HOME="/usr/local/slimserver" SLIMSERVER_CFG="/etc/slimserver.conf" SLIMSERVER_LOG="/tmp/slimserver.log" SLIMSERVER_ARGS="--daemon --logfile=$SLIMSERVER_LOG --user $SLIMSERVER_USER --group $SLIMSERVER_GROUP --prefsfile=$SLIMSERVER_CFG --cachedir /var/tmp/slimserver" PID_FILE="/var/run/slimserver.pid" NICE_VALUE="-3" Next I tried to run the startscript to start ss: music:/etc/init.d # ./slimserver.init start Starting SlimServer done looked good so far, only ss stops after a few seconds. What's in the logfile? music:/etc/init.d # cat /tmp/slimserver.log 2007-07-13 11:32:54.5983 Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/local/slimserver/Slim/Utils/Prefs.pm line 1097. 2007-07-13 11:32:54.6024 Use of uninitialized value in join or string at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/File/Spec/Unix.pm line 81. 2007-07-13 11:32:54.6030 Use of uninitialized value in join or string at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/File/Spec/Unix.pm line 81. 2007-07-13 11:33:02.6945 Warning: Migrating from 6.3.x used with MySQL!
