Hi, I've seen a number of other threads about Slimserver not starting, with various possible solutions; I think I've tried them all, but to no avail.
I've been running Slimserver for several years with no problems, formerly on an older version of Mepis linux. I had to move it to another machine running the more recent Mepis (6.5), which is largely the same as Ubuntu(from Slimserver's point of view, probably identical). Since then, I cannot get Slimserver to start. I have Slimserver v.6.5.2 installed from the deb http://debian.slimdevices.com testing main pool. Running /etc/init.d/slimserver start as root starts two processes, slimserver and slimserver_safe. However, going to http://localhost:9000 returns an "Unable to Connect" error in Firefox, and my Squeezebox (v.1) tells me it can't find the server. I tried starting slimserver from the command line as follows: slimserver -d_startup thee last 6 lines were as follows: Can't locate object method "children" via package "Path::Class::Dir" at /usr/sha re/perl5/Slim/Utils/PluginManager.pm line 75. Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/perl5/Slim/Music/Info.pm line 32. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/Slim/Music/Info.pm line 32 . Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/perl5/Slim/Utils/Misc.pm line 50. Compilation failed in require at /usr/sbin/slimserver line 113. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/sbin/slimserver line 113. I don't know enough (anything) about perl to know what that might mean. I do also get the following error message anytime I use apt-get; don't know if it is relevant (but given that Slimserver is in perl, thought it might be) perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = "en", LC_ALL = "en_US", LANG = "en_US" are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory Any thoughts?
