How to set up forked-daapd (mt-daapd replacement) on 9.10

**ronsonk** · September 16th, 2010

I've been able to get it installed, but have 2 issues (+ 1 question):

1) The daemon won't stay running. I'll be listening to a stream and the process (on the server) will die. The last log entry is usually 'scan: Badly formatted .url file; expected format is bitrate, descr, url' I've checked the library I'm scanning - there are no .url files.

2) It won't scan my entire library. It's only getting about 50%. I've checked permissions, users and groups and everything seems ok. Is there anyway to reset the scan or force a rescan, say by deleting the database?

3) How do I enable verbose logging?

Thanks,

Ken

This all seems like a bit of a drama. Will the packages automatically be pulled from Debian into the next Ubuntu, or does someone need to file a "needs-packaging" request?

It isn't in the current packages:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?ke...ll&section=all
but apparently the Debian packages work:

The homepage says that it is in Debian Squeeze:

I appear to be having this same issue.

Code:

I tried manually reinstalling antlr3, but get the same "failed" message after running daap-server.sh again.
Any suggestions on getting around this?

Edit: Found the answer! Thanks mo-hog!

Well, I did the jamesdanylik recipe, and it seemed to work.... briefly. I'm on 10.04 though, not 9.10. 64bit. forked-daapd fires up, starts indexing my file, I can see the server in iTunes 10, and play a song, but then it crashes with........

Sep 19 20:53:14 odin kernel: [20113.170493] forked-daapd[6693]: segfault at 8020a3438 ip 00007f62d5bdb9ae sp 00007f62ce824580 error 4 in libavformat.so.52.31.0[7f62d5b8a000+9d000]

I also had to install libsqlite3-0 and libsqlite3-dev from debian testing which have the unlock notify API enabled.

I had to install libunistring-dev and libunistring0 but the build is failing at:

I had the same problem with unistr.h using the libunistring version 0.9.1-1 libraries with Ubuntu Lucid - I installed libunistring0 and libunistring-dev 0.9.3-3 as deb files from Debian sid and that solved this:

http://packages.debian.org/sid/libunistring0
http://packages.debian.org/sid/libunistring-dev

Well, I've compiled forked-daapd-0.12 now - testing it is next...

P.S. This was also an easy way to install libantlr3c,

http://packages.debian.org/sid/libantlr3c-3.2-0
http://packages.debian.org/sid/libantlr3c-dev

For a sufficiently up to date sqlite3 I used:

http://packages.debian.org/sid/sqlite3
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libsqlite3-0
http://packages.debian.org/sid/libsqlite3-dev

Hey im Running into the same issues like others:

[i] Showing the last 5 lines from the logfile (/home/hannes/source/ServerScripts/./daap-server.sh.log)...
checking whether to build static libraries... no
checking for antlr3... no
configure: error: antlr3 wrapper not found and pre-generated files not available
11523's retcode: 1
failed

2.6.32-24-generic-pae #43-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 16 15:30:27 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

Is there a way to get this compiled? I just tried a manual install of antlr3 wrapper... - i dont want to use the debian repository!

Any Idea?

Thanks!

Pcace

EDIT: I did this Problem! But sorry for all who has this Poblem: i realy do not know what i did to fix it...

Anyway: The Next Problem:
SQLITE3

checking for SQLITE3... configure: error: Package requirements ( sqlite3 >= 3.5.0 ) were not met:

No package 'sqlite3' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables SQLITE3_CFLAGS
and SQLITE3_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

user@server:~/source/forked-daapd$ sqlite3
SQLite version 3.7.2
Enter ".help" for instructions
Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";"
sqlite>

What can i do there?? I realy dont know whats wrong there! Has anyone an idea how to fix that sqlite Problem? I installed the version from the Debian repository...

Thanks!

Pcace!

EDIT2:

GOT IT!!!! I used that version: http://packages.debian.org/sid/i386/...3-dev/download

**maubp** · October 1st, 2010

When running configure and it tells you it is missing a dependency it isn't always clear what the Ubuntu/Debian package name is. The dependency list here is a great help:

http://packages.debian.org/sid/forked-daapd

Don't forget for package foo you will also want to install package foo-dev to get the header files to compile against.

Thanks to the previous posters I've been able to create a script which builds and installs forked-daapd (and its requirements) on Ubuntu Lucid and Maverick. The script also creates logrotate.d and init.d scripts.

Currently I've only tested forked-daap on 64-bit Lucid and listened to music with Banshee, but the script should also work on 32-bit as well.

NOTE! forked-daapd requires SQLite3 with update notify API enabled which is not available in the Lucid repos. Therefore my script grabs SQLite 3.6.23.1-4 from the Maverick builds in order to satisfy this requirement. I've no idea what the knock on effect might be so don't blame me if my script eats all your chocolates

I've built forked-daapd in a virtual guest to ensure I don't break anything important on my production machines. Naturally, when running this script on Maverick it doesn't do the funky SQLite3 stuff.

You can get my scripts from my bzr repository. There are other scripts in there, most are incomplete or experimental.

Code:

bzr branch lp:~flexiondotorg/+junk/ServerScripts

The script needs to be executed via 'sudo'.

Code:

sudo ./daap-server.sh

The output from the script looks like this.

Code:

Installing daapd server
 [x] Downloading SQLite3 with notify unlock API enabled success
 [x] Installing SQLite3 with notify unlock API enabled success
 [x] Installing build requirements success
 [x] Updating ANTLR success
 [x] Downloading ANTLR C runtime success

 [x] Installing forked-daapd success
 [x] Adding 'daapd' user success
 [x] Setting 'daapd' permissions success
 [x] Configuring logrotate success
 [x] Configuring init.d success

If you want to see what the script is doing while it is running just execute the following in another shell.

Code:

tail -f daap-server.sh.log

Hopefully this will help some of you who, like me, were struggling to get forked-daapd working.

I get this on 10.10 server (32-bit):

Exact same. Anyone?

I finally got around this problem...
I made a file ~/bin/antlr3 containing

Code:

#!/bin/sh
CLASSPATH=/usr/share/java/antlr-3.2.jar
java -cp $CLASSPATH org.antlr.Tool "$@"

Make sure it is executable:

chmod +x ~/bin/antlr3

~/bin is on my PATH, so configure finds it alright.

There was _some_ instruction for this in the read me here: https://github.com/jasonmc/forked-daapd.
