Re: Red Hat DSS install trouble



I'm running 5.6.0. I'll try updating Perl.

streamingadminserver.pl was launched by the installer, which I ran as root. I think that since I got as far as I did indicates that the admin server is running OK. I've killed it, and DSS, a couple of times. Reinstalled a couple of times. I even tried building from the DSS source file. That's weird, different from any other Linux source package I've seen. Where's the configure script? Anyway...

Thanks

What version of Perl do you have installed? On RH Linux 7.x, I've used and tested DSS 4.1.3.c with Perl v5.8.0, and it worked fine.

Just makes sure that when you run the DSS Streaming Web Admin server (which does depend on Perl), that you start it as the root user:

   root# perl /usr/local/sbin/streamingadminserver.pl

As for Apache, DSS does not use it at all, so there's no possibility that your upgrading of Apache to 2.0.44 could be the problem.

I'm trying to install DSS on RH Linux 7.1. The install completes without error. When I log into the admin on port 1220 it goes through the initial set-up screens, first prompting for MP3 streaming password set up, then an SSL toggle, then asking for a media directory. It's interesting that the field in the streaming directory form is blank, it's implied in the docs that this should be filled with the default directory /usr/local/movies. I entered that directory. Then I get to what I guess is the Home page for the admin system. There is a button in the top left that is labeled Stop Server, next to it is "Server is Starting Up". The Server Snapshot table looks like this;
Server:


Status: Started Wed, 31. Dec 1969 19:00:00
Current Time On Server: Wed, 31. Dec 1969 19:00:00
Up Time:
DNS Name (default):

Server Version: .c
Server API Version: 0.0

CPU Load: 0.00%
Current # of Connections:
Current Throughput: bps
Total Bytes Served:
Total Connections Served:

Obviously it's not reading the server's date correctly.

When I go to Playlists I get an empty Playlists table. Click on New MP3 playlist and I get Error - Perl execution failed.

Error log gives me Error getting directory.

I've installed and run DSS 3 on this server successfully. Since that time I've upgraded Apache to 2.0.44. Could that be a problem?

Cheers,
