Unable to get slimpd installed on Ubuntu

[brendan-pike]

I've followed the instructions, when I get to the import; var/www/slimpd $ sudo -uwww-data php -d memory_limit=-1 slimpd hard-reset PHP Notice: Undefined index: timezone in /var/www/slimpd/slimpd on line 58 PHP Notice: date_default_timezone_set(): Timezone ID '' is invalid in /var/www/slimpd/slimpd on line 58 PHP Notice: Undefined index: cli in /var/www/slimpd/slimpd on line 64 PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 2097152 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 65536 bytes) in /var/www/slimpd/core/vendor-dist/illuminate/support/Collection.php on line 141

Please help.

@brendan-pike thank you for reporting! i have a vague idea why this error occurs but i am not sure about. please pull the latest commit and give it another try.

[othmar52]

@brendan-pike giving feedback on issues you opened (thanks for that!!!) seems not to be your strength :)

Please can you tell me if the problem still exists?

[brendan-pike]

I'm so sorry, not sure what happened with my head. I'll try this very soon and re-try (promise)

[brendan-pike]

The process appears to hang, eg. slimpd # sudo -uwww-data php -d memory_limit=-1 slimpd hard-reset --force All data of database:slimpd will be lost! Continue?

At this poin its using 100% CPU on a core but nothing happens even after an hour or so.

[othmar52]

please try to increase verbosity level in core/config/config_local.ini

[config]
cli-verbosity = 10

due to some caching issues remove the cached config manually

rm localdata/cache/conf*

and give it a try

[brendan-pike]

I cleared the cache and up'd the verbosity but the same thing happened and with no additional CLI information.

[othmar52]

Maybe your webserver-user is not able to access your configured mpd-database file!?

Are you able to access sliMpd's systemcheck in your browser?

[brendan-pike]

Okay, I'm starting to get some perspective here, thank you. My mpd is remote, is that a show stopper?

[othmar52]

Yes, unfortunately sliMpd will not work when those system requirements are not met

Webserver (Apache, Nginx, Lighttpd, ...) read-access to MPD-database-file (plain-text or gzip supported) read-access to filesystem configured in 'mpd.conf:music_directory'

[brendan-pike]

I'll try and symlink those directories and see if it works.
