Topic: Subsonic MP3 streamer

[newburns]

I know there are Jinzora helps , but I went with Subsonic. Much better interface. However, I am having a problem with transcoding. It's saying that its not installed, but someone gave me there libmp3.so.0 file, and with WinSCP I put it in the /var/subsonic folder and changed the permissions of the whole folder. Still won't transcode. Any ideas?

how did you install Subsonic?

[newburns]

I'm using SME 8 Beta 4. I have Tomcat installed. I put the subsonic.war in the webapps folder. Created /var/subsonic/transcode ; /var/subsonic/standalone. Reset the permission of the /var/subsonic folder through winSCP and that was it.  It deployed but didnt start at first. But after you reset permissions on the folders that have errors in the log, it will deploy and start. When you do upgrades, you have to restart the server, not just the tomcat server.

is there anything interesting in /var/subsonic/subsonic.log?

hi, read this

Okay, next question, May be a dumb question, but yall said there's no dumb question, so know hate messages after this! LOL   

How do you install Lame so I can copy it from the /usr/bin folder.
Technically, I need the dummy way. Something I could almost copy and paste into putty, because a lot of other forums I read say to "roll" my own Lame file, or something like that. I don't even know the right term, but going to lame website doesn't work for me. I get a zip file with a ton of files in it, and in the lamemp3 file, there is no liblamemp3.so.0 file
So, for all the ones that don't know what to do that googling real fast to get an answer, what should we do. Or better yet, how do I "roll" my own installation files so I can make my own .rpm or whatever. And I know yall "devs" are laughing. LOL

hi

setup Dag repo.. please remember to replace "el4" with "el5" as you are using SME 8

then do

Code: [Select]

yum --enablerepo=dag install lame

at this point you have liblamemp3.so.0 in your system.. if you need to know where is it, simply do

Code: [Select]

rpm -ql lame

HTH

Sorry, din't know the forums did that. Thats pretty awesome. Is that like an auto spellchecker, or someone has to read each post to determine any errors?

[cactus]

Just for thos doing the copy paste thing like myself its

yum --enablerepo=dag install lame

No need to repeat that as it is already answered in the post above yours a few hours earlier. The community is not considering parrot like behavior as helping out others... please keep that in mind.
