Linux Setup

[Luke 37060]

Yea when the next server release goes public we'll udpate these linux /osx builds accordingly. the path substitution feature will solve that for you.

[smitopher 19]

the server doesn't explicitly request it. perhaps an operation was rejected without root access. That's about all i can think of there. you could try removing the plugin just to help narrow it down.

Ok, removed the pluging and it's still prompting for root.

[smitopher 19]

OK, here is my setup.

Server Foxconn Nano AT-2550 http://www.foxconnchannel.com/ProductDetail.aspx?T=NanoPC&U=en-us0000018

Intel Atom D2550 Dual Core 1.86GHz

4 gig of ram

64 Gig ssd with  3TB USB 3 drive

running 64 bit Fedora 19, mono and MB3 from the ssd

Copied my library on to the USB drive

 

Client is MB Classic

For the most part it is fine when connecting to MB3 on my Win server 2012.

 

Sometime it plays a show but usually it does not.

I've attached the log in a zip archive.

 

I browsed to a TV show, selected an episode and then selected Play.

Nothing played.

 

I exited MB Classic.  Terminated MB3 Server from the dashboard.  Zipped up the log.

 

I hope this is useful.

 

you haven't actually completed the server startup wizard yet. it failed to open it in your browser. see the log for now, yes the failure needs to be better reported to the user. similarly, there are all kinds of ffprobe errors in your log. i'll need to get abeloin to help diagnose that.

[smitopher 19]

My server is headless.  Is there a url that can start the wizard remotely?

Right there in the conole

Edited February 19, 2014 by smitopher

[smitopher 19]

OK, completed the wizard.

 

Here is a log where I played some trailers.  TV show will still not play

server-63528363390.log.zip

[Luke 37060]

at this point if you're having a client issue, you should report it in the area of the forum for that client, along with client-side logs and anything else relevant. This area is mainly for dealing with issues directly related to the serve.r

[smitopher 19]

My MBC client works as expected when connecting to my Win server 2012 MB3 instance.  I shut the windows server down and run the Mono server and my client has trouble playing.

 

I would not characterize that as a client issue.

 

Are there accelerated graphics requirements on the server?  I'm NOT running any as the ONLY drivers for the Atom D2550 are 32 bit Windows 7 (LONG story and ordeal getting Fedora installed.  Ended up using a VM to run the Fedora install).  I don't plan on doing any transcoding or streaming if that makes a difference.

 

I will follow up on the client forum if you think there is value there.

Edited February 19, 2014 by smitopher

[smitopher 19]

If any of your dev's want to poke at my mono server with a stick... I can open up an ssh port and provide the root password..  Just trying to help.

[Beardyname 194]

I'm gonna take a shoot in the dark here and guess

 

are you using this with the path substitutions ? I was wondering if the failed playback could be due to the fact that maybe the clients can-not connect to your share for some reason. Simply testing to play them in the web-ui should make this clear since that forces a transcode.

 

And to answer your second question, any gpu-accelerated transcode is not possible (yet) and that is out of the devs control and totally up to the ffmpeg guys maybe they will do something about it in the future but we don't know that

[Debug Mode 2]

It seems like the server still tries to get tags for songs with scraping turned off.

[Luke 37060]

the failed playback is due all of the ffprobe failures which means the database will be missing media info. however, since MBC plays without transcoding, there is potentially also a client-side issue where it's not able to handle the missing data. (Maybe, we don't really know until mbc has also been debugged). However since he doesn't want to do that, we are at an impasse.

[ebr 14910]

MBC won't care about any media info.  So those problems are either access or codec problems.  A log would lend a clue.

[smitopher 19]

OK, I have an interesting bit of test cases.

 

Windows Server 2012/MB3 Server

MBC Client Works as expected

MBT Client works as expected

 

Fedora/Mono/MB3 Server

MBC Client does not play anything but can fully browse the library

MBT Client works as expected

 

I will endeavor to get some clean client and server logs for each test case.

[smitopher 19]

OK, 

Mono MB3 Server running as not root.

MBC client can browse the library but not play

MBT Client can Browse and Play.

 

I have included the MB3 and MBC logs.  I was not able to find in the MBT help where it has it's logs.

 

This was interesting in the MBC log

2014-02-19 09:01:37.1047,Warning,,Unable to directly access /var/hda/files/mb3/TV/Broadchurch/Season 01/Broadchurch.S01E01.720p.BluRay-SHORTBREHD.mkv.  Attempting to stream.,1,Application

 

Since MBT can play, is MBC not paying attention to the path substitution?

 

I ran the server as root once and now it no longer has the sudo prompt hen not running as root.

Guys, fyi. I will a new build up for you either tonight or tomorrow with all the latest server features that were just released.

 

Can't wait! Thanks, Luke!

New build:

 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/07hh1g4x9xo28jb/MBServer.Mono.zip (Without Mono for Linux and Mac)

 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/vmv8xhyj57vtldj/MBServer.Mono.Mkbundle.zip (Linux x86_64 version with Mono embedded)

 

For Linux, mediabrowser can open ISO(Stream detail and web client streaming) via sudo, mount and umount.

 

In order to activate this feature, you need to add these lines via visudo(don't forget to change the username to the one running mediabrowser):

Defaults:jsmith !requiretty
jsmith ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /bin/mount
jsmith ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /bin/umount

I updated it again with more fixes for issues found in the current beta. Same url (see post above).

What happened to folder substitution?

 

 

 

I downloaded the MB3 version with mono embedded

That's not the new version that i posted.

Thank you.

 

This time I downloaded the link for mb3 WITHOUT mono embedded.  

 

 

I really don't know what's different but MBC nows plays content from my linux server running mb3.

 

Any guidance on how best to run mb3 server as a daemon?

[Luke 37060]

The difference is that the path substitution settings are actually being used now. The previous build you had came from the middle of the dev cycle and at that point they were used on the configuration page.

 

I think there was a poster a page or two ago who detailed how he set it up as a daemon. I would follow that.

 

I think at this point we're close to getting linux up on the website. OS X is equally as stable, but we will want to build a friendly installer first before making it available for download.
