Gigon,

Thank you very much for the package, just got a DS1512+ and have been running subsonic for a couple of years now. Love the fact I can run this off my Syno now! Quick question, in the regular Windows install for SS, I have the option to change the location for Playlists. I don't see this option in your version, and instead, see an option on the left for Playlists, which include Importing and Create a New Playlist. I use MediaMonkey on my main PC, and often export my playlists to a common directory to utilize with SS when out and about. Is there plans to put the functionality of changing the default location for playlists back in? I've attempted to use the Import Playlist option, but everytime I try, I get a "Failed to Import Playlist. No songs in the playlist were found". I can open these playlists in my other version of SS I have still up and running, as well as any Windows media player. Is there something I need to do to get your version to recognize my playlists? As well, is there a way to export the playlists at this time so I can use them in other media players? Thanks again for all of your hard work on this!!

hi randy

by default the playlist folder is set to /volume1/music/playlist
So you can copy your playlist to this folder (create it, if it doesn't exist), or change the path.

The only way I know to change it at the "all platform version" I am using, is to edit the subsonic.sh file.
If you are familiar with ssh and linux shell: the file is located in /volumeX/@appstore/Subsonic/Subsonic/ (X is the volume number you installed Subsonic to), just change the "SUBSONIC_DEFAULT_PLAYLIST_FOLDER" tag.

If you are not familiar:
You have to connect to your DS via ssh (for example with a little program called putty)
Start putty, type in the IP of your DS, set the connection type to ssh an click connect
enter user: root / password: <same as admin>
type
cd /volume1/@appstore/Subsonic/Subsonic (change the number to the volume you installed Subsonic to)
now you can either copy the subsonic.sh file to a shared folder (cp subsonic.sh /volumeX/shared folder), edit it in windows and copy it back
or edit it directly in the shell:
type vi subsonic.sh (I don't like vi, but this is the only editor that is installed by default, if you have bootstrapped your DS you can install nano which is much easier to work with)
type a <enter>
navigate to the line that starts with SUBSONIC_DEFAULT_PLAYLIST_FOLDER
now you can edit the path to your playlist folder
after editing press <Esc> and type :wq (to save (w) and exit (q) the editor)
you should be back to the shell now
type exit
putty (or whatever ssh program you are using) closes
the new playlist folder will be mounted after restarting subsonic.

Hello everyone

I was using subsonic since a while in my computer and enjoy this software.
now, I want to install it in my new DS212j synology san !!!
The installation of the java and synology package semms to be ok, but since i installes subsonic, my CPU is running very high (100%)
and the subsonic interface is not available (myip:4040) ...
Is it because subsonic scan my music ??
How long it will take before become available (50 000 song library) ??

Can someone can help me ???
... and sorry for my poor english !!!!

Merci

[gigon]

hi Aktarus
what error message do you get? (http error 404/403....)

After starting Subsonic it might take a while (at least one minute, up to 5 minutes, depending on your system) before the Interface is available. (100% CPU load is normal during this time)
maybe you can try https://yourip:4041
The interface should be available during scanning.


P.S. I am working on a 4.7 beta 3 version...

[Aktarus]

Hello,

thank you to help me !!
i think i really have a problem... my cpu is 100% since 2 hour and the interface is still unavailable ...
With my internal ip ... 4040 and 4041 port are not working !!! i think is a 404 error ... timeout request... page not found !!!

Really strange !! I tried to remove and re-download the package ... reboot san ... without any success. If I stop subsonic ... my cpu goes normally and no more java process in the processus tab !!!

What can I do ... I really like subsonic and I want to use it if it's possible

MERCI

[gigon]

please wait for the new beta 3, it might be a java incompatibly problem, which is fixed in 4.7 beta 3

[Aktarus]

Just another question :
It say in installation procedure : "“User Home” activated in DSM (Control Panel->User->User Home)"
But I dont' have any user with this name in my DSM4.1 ... just Admin and guest user are in the system.
Subsonic installation create a Subsonic user and the software is installed in /volume1/@appsotre/subsonic/subsonic

Do I have to create a User Home in my dsm4.1 or it's not this that cause my problem ??
Java 7 is ok or java 6 could be better ??

Maybe I will wait for new release ... hope my bug will be fixed !!

Merci

user Home:
it is a service to provide private folders to every user (during installation a "subsonic" user is created, who runs the subsonic process)

your log looks fine, can't find an error...

the rest is correct,
for 4.7 beta 2 java 6 is the correct one. Now that beta 3 is out, I am working on a new package which will support java 7.

[Aktarus]

Hello,

I have tried also with java 6 yesterday .. no more success !!
Everything seem to be ok ... but always unable to connect on port 4040 or 4041 ... LAN or WAN !!
I checked my firewall open port = ok too

I'm out of idea about that !!!
it's a bit frustrating because I really like Subsonic !!!

I hope your Beta3 version will be ok for me !!!

[Aktarus]

Hello !!

Good news for me ... My subsonic is working now on my Syno ds212j
I just updated Java7 with the august10 version and it's work !!!! Very Kool !!!

I have just another question about updates... Can I update my subsonic by download new .war file and copy to subsonic folder ?? Or I have to wait special Synology package to be release (beta 3 example)

Thank you -> Merci

[gigon]

I am currently working on a 4.7 package.

[gigon]

Thanks for the hard work - I've been enjoying your packages for a while now.

However with this new one, I tried upgrading from your 4.7b1 package, as well as a fresh install (both restoring from backup, and completely fresh), and I get this error in my subsonic_package.log (and I unchecked "Run after installation"

Code: Select all

092412114347: start Subsonic for first initialisation
092412114352: Error: Can not start Subsonic during install

and here is the subsonic_sh.log:
