Did you do a Java Uninstall/reinstall? Also did you delete the C:\Subsonic folder when you reinstalled SS?

Same for me on Ubuntu 12.04. It was working when I last tried it a few days ago, but now it's giving this 503. Guessing an Ubuntu update has broken it?? If anyone knows what the dependencies are I can post my versions. I know it uses for Java but as far I as know this hasn't been updated since an openjdk6 patch last week (and it was working after that...). Current java version is:

Code: Select all

java version "1.6.0_24"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11.1) (6b24-1.11.1-4ubuntu3)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

To follow on from my reply above... there was some nonsense about an inability to connect to the db in the subsonic.log. I tried deleting the whole SS install and reinstalling the .deb and it's now fine (well, it's starting up, not done areal test as yet).

Luckily for me I only have a couple of users and media folders to re-key!

503 is usually caused by the db file not being closed properly. I believe there are posts on the forum describing what happens regarding a .lck file or some such thing that needs to be deleted to remove the error. a seaarch on "503 error" will probably yeild a long list of reading that probably has the details buried inthere somewhere.

Uninstalling/reinstalling is the shotgun approach to killing the fly, but it works.

is the shotgun approach to killing the fly, but it works.

Have you ever tried that In my experience it doesn't but sometimes you get lucky with wasps

[GJ51]

It doesn't ALWAYS work, but damn sure is fun.

[crazyboris]

only reinstalled subsonic.
will try now and uninstall everything and install again.

and delete the subsonic folder.

edit.

deleted the subsonic folder and reinstalled subsonic , then it worked.
