Last.FM scrobbing not working [solved]

[FNC]

Hi,

I am running subsonic 4.7 (build 3105) on Ubuntu 12.04 (XBMCbuntu).
Currently I am unable to submit tracks to subsonic and can see the following in subsonic.log:

Code: Select all

My Subsonic server is behind a Linux firewall that connects to the internet and is configured as a transparent proxy with squid.
I have added a exclusion to the firewall to allow all traffic from the subsonic server to 195.24.233.57 (which seems to be the last.fm submission system), but no luck.

I found some posts in the forum with similar problem, but there is no solution.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Have you monitored the network traffic? From the error message, it looks like you get a HTTP 417 back from last.fm. I'd think that the request you send to them contains weird headers, but that's just guessing.

Last FM has had server problems with their scrobbling (submissions) service recently.
See http://status.last.fm/
I noticed that a lot of my scrobbles were taking a long time to show up but SS will cache those and retry
so they get there eventually.

It looks like something on my firewall is causing it.
I ran subsonic directly on the firewall and the scrobbing works.

What's interesting is that while a song is playing I can see it on Last.fm but after the song is completed it's not there any more.

I have resolved the problem. It was a issue with my firewall.

The problem was not related to subsonic or last.fm but in fact a mtu problem. I not sure it will be of interest to anyone here, but if anyone is interested they can PM me.

Thanx to those willing to try and assist.

Can you please provide more information about how you fixed your problem? I am having similar issues which I expect are due to firewall issues as well...
