5.1.2 Issues

Completely new to TwonkyServer here, but here it goes:

Under 5.1.2 the server never appears to finish indexing/building its DB. According to the log file, it seems to reprocess folders its definitely already seen. When the server is restarted, it seem to want to start from a 0 item db and build again. Sometimes the server does manage to get around 20k mp3's before becoming unstable again.

Additionally, it is creating a massive number of temp files *_temp_playlist.wpl in the /var/twonkymedia folder. Unfortunately the log file grows at such a rate that its hard to keep track of whats going on.

I selected to use 5.1.2 because of the newer SQLLite engine, as I didn't want to have to completely rebuild again. Should I consider trying 5.0.68? Additionally TMS seems to want to perform writes to the directories it watches.. is this normal? Usually with temp.tms file names.

Thanks for the help,

David
