Is there any way I can access Mediatomb in an easy way like bubba:3689 the Firefly web interface?

I would like to access Mediatomb from my webbrowser.

Hi

restart mediatomb

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/mediatomb restart

when you look in /var/log/mediatomb, you should see something like this:

tail /var/log/mediatomb
2008-01-05 21:49:25 INFO: Initialized port: 49152
2008-01-05 21:49:25 INFO: Server bound to: 192.168.1.130
2008-01-05 21:49:26 INFO: MediaTomb Web UI can be reached by following this link:
2008-01-05 21:49:26 INFO: http://192.168.1.130:49152/

I have had a problem with mediatomb, and it showed up that i could no longer get the web interface. This was related to a corrupt sqllite database.
I fixed this by removing the sqllite database and then starting mediatomb.
Mediatomb then creates a new database and starts scanning for media files. In the web interface you should be able to see the progress.

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/mediatomb stop
rm /var/db/sqlite3.db
/etc/init.d/mediatomb start

hope this solves your problem.

hiya

I have a problem with the sqlite3.db file, but when I try removing it and restarting mediatomb, I get the following at the end of the log file:

Code: Select all

2008-03-21 20:56:39    INFO: Configuration check succeeded.
2008-03-21 20:56:40   ERROR: Sqlite3Storage.init: could not open /var/db/sqlite3.db

Hi
what do you get when you do a

Code: Select all

ls -l /var/db

Did you stop mediatomb, before you removed the file?
Also see if all mediatomb processen are really gone

Code: Select all

ps -ef|grep mediatomb

hi

cheers for the quick reply eek

ls -l /var/db gives:

Code: Select all

-rw-rw-rw-  1 www-data www-data    128 Mar 21 20:21 mediatomb.html
-rw-r--r--  1 www-data www-data 209920 Mar 21 20:44 tf.db

and yes I did stop mediatomb using:

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/mediatomb stop

and ps -ef | grep meditomb shows that no mediatomb processes are running after it has been stopped

cheers

Check the user under which mediatomb is running

Code: Select all

 head -20 /etc/init.d/mediatomb

maybe this user does not have (write) access to the /var/db directory
the USER and GROUP should match the user and group you get when you do

Code: Select all

ls -ld /var/db
