Subsonic Forum

Hi, I upgraded from (pretty sure) 2.7 to 2.8 by stopping tomcat on fc4 and then renaming subsonic.war to subsonic.old. I then renamed the subsonic folder to subsnicold. I put in the new subsonic.war and browsed to the web location that had previously worked.

The left and top panels come up with errors like :

however the central window does still work, i am able to navigate e.g. new music and play by clicking on the album cover.

I had a look and the closest error i could find on this forum was a problem with non-standard characters in the music directories. I am not sure how that could come about from an upgrade, have not made any attempts to change folder locations because I am not sure how to without moving my music files out of the way.

Any ideas?

PS nice piece of software, by the way!

Hi,

It's indeed the problem with non-standard characters you are running into. This bug was not present in 2.7.

I haven't been able to reproduce this bug on Windows - it seems it only occurs on Linux. Maybe you can help me a little? When you get this error, can you please look for any warnings or errors in /var/subsonic/subsonic.log? Also, please look for anything "suspicious" in the log files in /usr/local/apache-tomcat-5.5.17/logs.

If you're not sure what to look for, you can mail me the entire log files.

Thanks in advance

Sindre

the other logs looked pretty standard.

let me know if ther's anything else you need testing out.

Thanks!

Hm, no more leads there, I'm afraid.

I'm having a hard time tracking down this bug since I don't have a Linux system myself, so I really appreciate you helping me out here.

I've prepared a war file which adds some debug logging when this error occurs. Could you be so kind to install it (normal upgrade procedure), and let me know what's written in subsonic.log when the error occurs?

Thanks a bunch!

output of ls (in putty) for problem folder:

I will rename said folder and see what happens

Thanks.

Does the error occur when you click on the "ma" folder, or the "Motörhead" folder?

sfter renaming the m?torhead folder i get a new error:

error occurs when i try to load the subsonic homepage, i don't see the folder to click on, top & left bars have error, but central frame shows fine

can send a screenshot if you like

I think I've found the explanation:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bu ... id=4866151

Do you know if the Mot?rhead folder originates from a Windows drive?
What happens if you rename the folder to "Motörhead" (the proper spelling)?

Also, can you please check what your LC_ALL environment variable is set to? Does it work if you set it to "en_US"?

Sindre

that's done it!

so i entered:

Code: Select all

export LC_ALL=en_US

at the prompt yay. Now to just add that to /etc/profile and done!


nice work !!!

Great! Did you notice what LC_ALL was set to before you changed it?

Thanks again for your help

from what I could gather, it was not set at all, although there was a us codepage set elsewhere. I am in the UK if that makes any difference.

I too am having this issue

my LC_ALL was set to ""

I have tried the following vars with no success

en_US.utf8
en_US
C


please let me know what other info you need to help t-shoot this

verified that I had the correct locales installed

once I did that and updated my locales install I tried with export LC_ALL=en_US


works for me now

I am seeing the following messages and would like to know if it is related

[2006-10-03 22:39:49,850] WARN Mp3Parser - Failed to parse MP3 header for /mnt/music/media/music/U/Unkown/Doc Vs JonC 020603.mp3

No, this warning is not at all related to the locale problem. It's just a warning that Subsonic wasn't able to find the MP3 header in the given file (either due to a corrupt file, or to a bug in the third-pary library Subsonic uses to parse MP3 headers).

The consequences of this warning is that Subsonic will not be able to display the bitrate and duration of this track.
