Hello, I hope someone can shed some light on my problems. After many days of struggling, I have now finally installed the Debian Freelink version of Linux on my Linkstaion Live. This seems to work well now.
I followed the instructions to install SlimServer as per here http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?FreelinkLinkstationPro I installed MySQL from mysql-5.0.51.tar.gz and complied it all with cd my* ./configure;make;make install This took ages but seemed to work. The Slimserver webpages come up ok. My problem is that the scan of my music folder does not set anything up in the database. It always shows 0 Albums and 0 Tracks. The SlimServer log shows:- 2007-12-29 15:54:54.6451 ERROR: DBI Connection failed: DBI connect('hostname=127.0.0.1;port=9092;database=slimserver','slimserver',...) failed: Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (111) at /usr/share/perl5/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 654 I am not sure why this is happening but any help appreciated. If I do the following mv /usr/sbin/mysqld /usr/sbin/mysqld.old cp /usr/local/libexec/mysqld /usr/sbin/mysqld mkdir /usr/local/etc cp /etc/mysql/my.cnf /usr/local/etc/my.cnf bit then MySQL does not seem to start at all. I dont understand what this is supposed to do but maybe the mysqld I created is not valid in some way. MySQL from a command line shows the following :- 127:/usr/share/slimserver# mysql Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 4 Server version: 5.0.32-Debian_7etch3-log Debian etch distribution Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. So I suppose I did not succeed in installing the new version correctly.
