Hi,

 

i have installed the Unraid Twonky Media Server.

I have copy this line in my Config Go File, but the Twonky program does not start until i manuel write the same line with telnet at my server.

Why does Twonky does not start automatic?

 

#!/bin/bash

# Start the Management Utility

/usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

/boot/unmenu/uu

/boot/twonkymedia/twonkymedia

 

Unmenu starts but Twonkey does not start

 

Second problem: After a restart i lost all configuration, so i copy the var/twonkymedia to a new user share and edit the ini (twonkymedia) and the go (Unraid config) file, but every restart i lost it again.

 

/boot/twonkymedia/twonkymedia -inifile /boot/twonkymedia/twonkymedia-server.ini

 

With this line, Twonky also does not start automatic

This is my twonkymedia-server.ini file:

It is probably installed on a user share or mounted disk, and during the go scripts execution, the disks ar not mounted yet.

 

If you can find a twonky plugin, it should work, because plugins are started when the disks are mounted.

it is installed at my flash usb, which has the unraid software on it.

Are you sure?

/mnt/user/twonky/

Looks like a shared folder from the array to me.

Not having used twonk, I agree with jowi.  The install file appears to be stored on your boot media, but directory you're running twonky from appears to be a user share.  You could try adding the following to your go file before /boot/twonkymedia/twonkymedia:

 

sleep 120

 

This will cause the file to wait 2 minutes (until, hopefully, your user shares are mounted), and then launch twonky

 

 

i change this to the share location, because i read that this will help, that the settings will be saved (http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=11758.0), before it was the var/ location of the server

That's fine.  The var/ location gets wiped out during a reboot, it's stored in memory.

 

The issue you're likely running into is that the share location isn't mounted when the software tries to start.  Putting the sleep 120 command in before running the command to start Twonky should provide enough time for the array to start.

My go script, as it seems relevant:-

#!/bin/bash
# Start the Management Utility
/usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

#Load unmenu (Works with or without array being up)
/boot/unmenu/uu


#Wait until array is started
until `cat /proc/mdcmd 2>/dev/null | grep -q -a "STARTED" ` ; do echo ">>>waiting..." ; sleep 1 ; done ; echo ">>>STARTED."

#Install whatever is in "Packages", I personally have nothing but I'd rather leave it than fuck something up
cd /boot/packages && find . -name '*.auto_install' -type f -print | sort | xargs -n1 sh -c 
#Install plex
installpkg /boot/extras/PlexMediaServer*.txz
#Email notifying me that the server is up (Takes forever to boot, I don't feel like refreshing \\tower\ this whole time):-
echo -e "Subject: unRAID Status Report: Boot email #1\n\nThis message is a status update for your unraid box" | ssmtp -d root #Also too lazy to work out how to acquire the name of the box, like the email status plugin.
#Wait a bit, plex is a bit buggy
sleep 30s
#Second email, just in case for whatever reason the below items hang *cough* plex *cough*
echo -e "Subject: unRAID Status Report: Boot email #2\n\nThis message is a status update for your unraid box" | ssmtp -d root
#Launch plex
/etc/rc.d/rc.plexmediaserver start

#Copy WOL
cp "/mnt/user/Nicks files/WOL.py" "/tmp/WOL.py"

#Allow it to be executed and read
chmod 555 "/tmp/WOL.py"

#Launch WOL
screen -dms "WOL" /usr/bin/python /tmp/WOL.py

#Last email

 

If you see any html tagging in there, tell me, when copying it via my VNC client to my laptop it randomly dumped loads of <br>s and encoding values to the document, I think I got read of them all.

 

EDIT: Wow... I just realized some why the last email never comes, I've been thinking all this time that screen was hanging for some reason...

 

...Wow. brbwhileifixit
