Using standalone version of 4.1 (subsonic-4.1-standalone.tar.gz) on a non-x install of Slackware 13.0

Have 4.0.1 working fine, but when trying to launch 4.1, I get the following:

Result from command line:

dirname: missing operand
Try `dirname --help' for more information.
Started Subsonic [PID 3261, /var/subsonic/subsonic_sh.log]

Inside the log file:
"Unable to access jarfile subsonic-booter-jar-with-dependencies.jar"

I get the same error with Fedora. If anyone has a answer to this please let us know. ;0)

Seriously, no one has an answer for this?

It is a big in the way subsonic.sh launches from the commandline in standalone mode. I managed to hack it to work, but the problem should be addressed.

i went back to 4.01 which works for me.

what was the hack you did to 4.1 that got it too work. Just so I can give it a go

Hi,

run into the same problem like you, to solve the following error:

Code: Select all

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

add the absolute path in subsonic.sh e.g.

Code: Select all

-jar /usr/share/subsonic/subsonic-booter-jar-with-dependencies.jar > ${LOG} 2>&1 &

Problems with

Code: Select all

dirname: missing operand
Try `dirname --help' for more information.

can be solved by adding the option -f

Code: Select all

cd $(dirname $0)
if [ -e /bin/readlink ] || [ -e /usr/bin/readlink ]; then
    cd $(dirname $(readlink -f $0))
fi

Good luck,
