Installing Subsonic on unRAID

Executing the script gives me this.....

Kryspy, you created or edited the file on a Windows system. You need to use a unix-friendly editor. One that does not put in stray "^M" (dos style carriage returns).

UNIX uses newline, DOS/Windows uses newline + carriage return.

To fix this script, you can use:

fromdos < /boot/scripts/subsonic_start.sh > /boot/scripts/subsonic_start.fixed
mv /boot/scripts/subsonic_start.fixed /boot/scripts/subsonic_start.sh

Okay so now I redid the setup and just replaced the subsonic/standalone drirectory and re-edited the file using metapad and made sure it saved as a UNIX style code. Now I get this error. By the way how come I can't see a /var directory on my flash. Am I missing something or is because I am looking at it in Windows? I am going to Ubuntu 10.10 tomorrow.

Did you put $0 (zero) in your script?

Or did you put $O (upper case letter O) in your script?

It should be a zero, not a letter. It looks like you put $O

you want

cd `dirname $0`

not

cd `dirname $O`

Did a total reinstall of everything and still get the same. What file is it accusing of being wrong ?

Your /boot/scripts/subsonic_start.sh file is still wrong.

You likely used the wrong quotes. You need back-quotes not normal quotes or double quotes, ` and not ' or ".

I didn't edit the file. I simply used the stock one supplied by the person who got this set up for unRAID

Here is the script:

#!/bin/bash

DIRFROM="/boot/subsonic/data"

echo "### Copy Subsonic Data files ###"

cp -R $DIRFROM/* $DIRTO/

ln -s -f $i -t "/usr/lib"

done

sleep 3

Tried to install this a couple of times but keep getting stuck at the same point.

From subsonic.sh_log

unable to access jarfile subsonic-booter-jar-with-dependencies.jar

Anyone else seen this error? The file permissions seem ok (-rwxr-xr-x)

I might have to try and install this. Any chance in making this into an unmenu package?

I'm in the same boat as you. I tried replacing all the double quotes in kapperz' scripts with ` but that just changes the errors I get.

A tiny chance...

Any chance of having a package for unmenu by Wednesday?

Highly doubtful, unless he has already started creating one. A package of that size takes a while to make and just as long (if not longer) to test. I have been working on a Transmission package for the better part of 2 weeks now. Granted I have been busy and not dedicating all my time to it, but I am hoping to have it done come next week.

On a side note: They are not that hard to create if there are already instructions to follow. You can try creating one yourself. Just look through the other unmenu.conf packages for an idea of what they are doing and if you have questions send a PM off to someone (I will try to answer as best I can and in a timely manner... can't promise anything though).

Very slim chance. (almost zero actually)

I started on a package the other night. It has none of the extra features needed to make it friendly. It just downloads and does the basic install. It does not yet download the additional codecs.

When I tried it on my older server it quickly used up all available memory and basically crashed my server. It only has 512Meg of ram. I never got to where it could see its web-page.

Here is what I had gotten to so far.

Create a file named

subsonic-unmenu-package.conf

put it in your /boot/packages directory.

In it put these lines. use an editor that does not add carriage returns to the ends of the lines:

PACKAGE_NAME SubSonic
PACKAGE_DESCR <u>Audio Streaming</u><br/>

# the Subsonic standalone server files
PACKAGE_URL http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/subsonic/subsonic-4.1-standalone.tar.gz

PACKAGE_EXTRA_MD5 ec548608da146865a8a86dbdc209c587

# If Java Run-Time is not already installed, install it.
PACKAGE_INSTALLATION test ! -f /usr/lib/java/bin/java && installpkg "${PACKAGE_DIRECTORY}"/jre-6u11-i586-1.tgz

PACKAGE_VERSION_TEST grep "Version:" /var/log/subsonic | awk '{print $2}'

Thanks for working on this Joe. I have no idea how long it takes to do these things so I was just wishing. If and when you get it done I will be glad to help you test it. Just keep in mind I'm completly Linux illiterate

I recently installed subsonic 3.9 on my unRaid 4.5.6 by following your great tutorial. Unfortunately, I'm running into some problems trying to get FLAC transcoding to work. Originally subsonic wouldn't even try to play the flac files with transcoding on or off. When I switched the max-bitrate off of No-limit I then started to hear static when playing FLAC files. Looking in the log files I see tons of errors similiar to what you see below. Do you have any ideas?
