StevenDTX 2 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I've kicked off a new docker build. keep in mind we have some new dependencies that have not been incorporated into docker yet, but we'll get it in for the next server release. libwebp - 0.4.1 MediaInfo Thank you! It works great now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam 1 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 You probably want to add some restart policy there see: http://blog.docker.com/2014/08/announcing-docker-1-2-0/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimtar 0 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I've been trying the official MediaBrowser docker and the metadata (mostly images) is pretty poor. Is this standard or do I need to look into this more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37029 Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Well this has nothing to do with docker itself so you should create a new topic with adequate information for us to diagnose the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awshirley 0 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Right now I have MediaBrowser running in a Windows VM on Mageia 4. I'm looking to move to CentOS7. I have docker installed and mediabrowser running, but it can't see the drive mapping to my video files. I have a smb mount on my CentOS7 box to the server with the videos. Docker was set to have access to the smb mount, but when I try to perform a scan in MB, it doens't find anything and also the folders are empty of any subfolders with the video. Any idea of what I can do to fix this? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awshirley 0 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I used: docker run -d --net=host -v /home/myhome/mbdata:/MBServer/ProgramData-Server -v /var/media:/media -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro --name=mbserver mediabrowser/mbserver. /var/media was the SMB mount to my video files. I tried to disable selinux and was now able to see the video files in MediaBrowser. The library scan seems to now hang. If I kill the docker process and restart it, it's still hung. I'm trying this on CentOS7. The firewall and selinux are disabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying this on CentOS7. The firewall and selinux are disabled. Are you running the latest mbserver image? I published one a couple of days ago. Usually the scan process hangs because of downloading metadata. If you uncheck download metadata it should complete. The version from a couple of days ago has a timeout built in that should resolve that issue, but I haven't tested it yet. There is a bug in all linux version as well that we are currently trying to resolve in order to have linux versions read xbmc data. Does your media already have metadata? Just tested the latest docker with 628 movies, and the scan completed fine. Edited October 29, 2014 by hurricanehernandez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awshirley 0 Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) How can I make docker pull down and overlay my mbserver image with the current one? I've also noticed that I can't log back into the mbserver dashboard via my web browser. All I get is a dark grey screen with a spinning circle in the middle. I'll try to access it via my Roku to see if it got any metadata. Edited October 31, 2014 by awshirley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If whatever reason mediabrowser stops responding you can also do docker stop and docker start. I will be updating the docker container tomorrow for the new beta release.

Guest scokar Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) Hello, I am trying out MBServer again after a long time and I have a few questions about the docker deployment I have docker installed on Centos 7 64-bit 1. "{MediaPath} - a top level media path" - does this mean using the "absolute path name" of the folder containing your media _OR_ does this mean the media folder has to be mounted off the root of the file system e.g: [a] "/MyDocument/Content/videos" versus "/videos" 2. " If you need to add multiple paths, simply duplicate -v {MediaPath}:/media" -- is the ":/media" a keyword and MUST BE USED or can this be different PER volume you want to expose to docker? e.g: [a] "-v /Content/Videos:/media -v /Content/Television:/media" versus "-v /Content/Videos:/videos -v /Content/Television:/television" 3. After you've started a dockerized mbserver, how can you later modifiy a path/volume exposed to docker? 4. How soon after starting mbserver does the ":/MBServer/ProgramData-Server" path get populated to see if things are working out? 5. SELINUX - are we to modify and selinux settings so that docker can access any of the exposed voluemes to mbserver? Thanks. EDIT to include answers: 1. The proper terminology: "{MediaPath} - This should be the absolute path to your folder or directory, e.g. /MyFolder or /MyFolder/AnotherFolder" 2. "If you need to add multiple paths, simply add another "-v {MediaPath}:/nnn" where nnn is unique for all MediaPath entries. e.g. "-v /MyFolder/FolderOne:/MyMovies -v /MyFolder/FolderTwo:/MyTVShows" 3. ... 4. Should be populated right away 5. My media is on a BTRFS file system. There is a known issue with SELINUX, Docker, and BTRFS. Note #2: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Resource_Management_and_Linux_Containers_Guide/sec-Secure_Containers_with_SELinux.html In RHEL/CentOS you can get around this for now by backing up and editing the file /etc/sysconfig/docker. comment out the OPTIONS line by placing a # in the first column and remove the "--selinux-enable" entry: e.g. original: #OPTIONS=--selinux-enabled -H fd:// new: OPTIONS=-H fd:// Edited November 2, 2014 by scokar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurricanehrndz 149 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 First of all, welcome back. Two, option b for volumes is right. Yes there is se_linux issues with docker and volumes, you best ask in the docker forums or google the work arounds. I believe someone earlier might have mention a solution.

hurricanehrndz 149 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 (edited) I forgot, MB populates the directory right away. You can see what is doing by running docker logs <name of container> I terms of adding or removing volumes I would just remove the container and recreated with more volumes. Since the program data is a volume removing the container will have no effect on your settings.

On the host, when I look into the path passed as "{DataPath}:/MBServer/ProgramData-Server", there is nothing there. However since "docker logs -t -f mbserver" gives me information, I will ignore this for now Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjenkins 1 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) No, no ports allocated and cannot connect. I've been researching docker commands and tried this: docker run -d -p 1900:1900 -p 7359:7359 -p 8096:8096 mediabrowser/mbserver Once it started up, it's connectible on port 8096. I've stopped and removed the image and will re-run it with /var/mbdata:/config to prevent any future problems. I also realise now that the -v lines are mappings for directory visibility within the docker environment & not mediabrowser mappings, so I only need a single one for the /media directory.

rjenkins 1 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) Hi guys, I've just been trying to get the docker install of Mediabrowser working. It did not work at all well on a Centos 6 system (docker problems) so I have reinstalled that with Centos 7. Docker now appears to work correctly and mediabrowser is trying to run - but bombs out reliably with an error: ... Running startup tasks Info, App, Core startup complete Error, App, Error launching url: http://localhost:8096/mediabrowser/web/wizardstart.html Cannot find the specified file System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start_shell (System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startInfo, System.Diagnostics.Process process) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start_common (System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startInfo, System.Diagnostics.Process process) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at (wrapper remoting-invoke-with-check) System.Diagnostics.Process:Start () at MediaBrowser.ServerApplication.Native.BrowserLauncher.OpenUrl (System.String url, ILogger logger) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 Error launching browser Cannot find the specified file Info, Dlna, SSDP service started --- Is it trying to run a web browser on the server itself? I cannot connect to it with a web browser or view it as a dlna device and it's not showing up in netstat as having any ports associated. If I stop & start it, it gives the same error and lack of connectivity but shows in docker as running. The machine it's running on is a headless server - no graphical display. It's in a rack with other machines & only administered via ssh. Any thoughts appreciated. Robert. Edited November 12, 2014 by rjenkins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjenkins 1 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 OK, but why is it not connectible from a browser or showing as listening on any ports?? I have opened port 8096 in the firewall; even if others needed for external access are still blocked, should they not be showing in netstat? I only installed Centos 7 on this machine yesterday and some parts are very different from the older releases I'm used to so it could well be me doing something dumb, but after a good few hours of studying it I can't see what it could be..
