Solved: Error enabling UPnPServer or Sonos on Subsonic 5.2
Posted: Tue Feb 24, 2015 7:57 pmFYI - posting this in case it's useful to someone.
I was getting errors such as the below when enabling Sonos or UPnP support in Subsonic 5.2. My setup is slightly odd as I'm running Subsonic in a FreeBSD Jail, but this may apply if you are having issues with binding UPnP to a particular address.
I fixed this by editing the subsonic start script (found in /usr/bin/subsonic) to add an extra argument to the java command to tell the UPnP library used by Subsonic which interface(s) to bind to:
where 192.168.1.1 is the address of the interface you want Subsonic to serve UPnP requests from. (This can be a comma separated list of addresses).
Full java command showing where I added the extra line:
