OK, here's what I ran through to get the new slimserver working. I built this today and can listen to both mp3s and the radio through my boom so it has been a success.
andyg might not approve though as this avoids running any build scripts at all ;-) My configuration utilises an already running mysql instance and I have at least one module installed through CPAN (as mentioned below) so YMMV, but hopefully this will be of use. 1. Unzip tarball gzcat squeezeboxserver-7.4.0-28672.tgz | tar xvf - 2. Download the contents of http://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/slim/7.4/trunk/vendor/CPAN/ into a separate build directory and uncompress each module 3. Using the following environment - v5.8.8 version of perl (I use the Blastwave package), Sun Studio 12 C Compiler - build each package. eg; cd AutoXS-Header-1.02 perl Makefile.PL make 4. Create our new arch directory and then copy each of the compiled .so files into the new squeezeserver install. cd squeezeboxserver-7.4.0-28672 mkdir -p CPAN/arch/5.8.8/i86pc-solaris-thread-multi/auto cd <newsqueezemodules> cp -pr */blib/arch/auto/* ../squeezeboxserver-7.4.0-28672/CPAN/arch/5.8.8/i86pc-solaris-thread-multi/auto 5. edit the first line of slimserver.pl so it uses /opt/csw/bin/perl 6. Try and run slimserver.pl. At this point I got an error; The following CPAN modules were found but cannot work with Squeezebox Server: Audio::Scan (loaded 0.38, need 0.41) I already had version 0.41 installed through cpan so I ran through the following to fix; cd CPAN mv Audio Audio.old cd .. vi modules.conf -> Audio::Scan 0.41 7. Copy over old prefs/server.prefs file 8. Copy old errmsg.sys to MySQL directory cp /usr/local/slimserver/MySQL/errmsg.* MySQL/ 9. Copy over favorites file from Cache/favorites.opml to new install 10. chown -R to slimserver user, move into the usual place (on my system it is /usr/local/slimserver) then su to the slimserver user and test. su - slimserver ./slimserver.pl -- Blue_Atom ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Blue_Atom's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7699 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=68589 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
