Hi Fletch Now I've recreated the VM using Ubuntu/Dapper, because I was hoping this'd be more stable. Now I've got base install with the *only* extra package installed via apt-get being slimserver from debian.slimdevices.com stable main (apart from some Samba packages). I've edited the allowedHosts and audiodir settings of /etc/slimserver/slimserver.pref but that is all. So it's clean now, but I'm still at the same problem with MySQL connections. I wonder if its possible to force the settings for whatever instance of MySQL is running?
# grep slim /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://debian.slimdevices.com stable main After the install the logfile reports: # cat /var/log/slimserver/slimserver.log 2007-10-26 13:24:00 slimserver_safe started. 2007-10-26 13:24:05.0843 Use of uninitialized value in join or string at /usr/share/perl/5.8/File/Spec/Unix.pm line 36. 2007-10-26 13:24:05.0857 Use of uninitialized value in join or string at /usr/share/perl/5.8/File/Spec/Unix.pm line 36. 2007-10-26 13:24:36.2605 ERROR: MySQLHelper: createSystemTables() Couldn't connect to database: [Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/cache/slimserver/slimserver-mysql.sock' (2)] 2007-10-26 13:24:37 Slimserver died.
