A seemingly simple problem under Debian

[JimLill]

I have been running twonky for years and thought I knew the subtle stuff etc.

I had it running on a Unslung SLUG without issue

A few weeks ago, I also installed it under DD-WRT on a Asus router, no issues

I just switched the SLUG to Debian and now issues when trying to install/run twonky

It balks on finding/running /usr/local/twonkymedia/twonkymedia

It is 6.0.30 and I have tried all the obvious perms things and some of the hints posted on various forums. No go so far.

Maybe the solution is posted here, but I could not find anything via a search...

What do you mean by 'it balks'? What error message do you get?

Also do this-
1) Login into the SLUG as root and do cd /usr/local/twonkymedia
2) Then do ls -alF
3) Then do ls -alF plugins

Post the output of the ls commands.

Sorry I was updating my post.

Login into the SLUG as root then execute the commands-
1) cd /usr/local/twonkymedia
2) ls -alF

Post the output.

OK that mostly looks mostly right but there is something vaguely familiar about your problem. Unfortunately my Debian system failed recently from a bad power supply so I can't test anything.

Some things to try-
1) chown to root:root for all files in the twonky directory, if you are in the /usr/local/twonkymedia directory I think the command is-
chown -R root:root * (could be wrong though about where the -R goes and it could be -r)
2) In the /usr/local/twonkymedia/twonkymedia.sh script, immediately before twonkymedia is started add - cd /usr/local/twonkymedia

[JimLill]

variations of my attempts to date, those attempts nor your thoughts work...

and other people have posted about it, but no clear solution

[parnott]

I do recall there is something different about Debian, but as I said I can't remember what. So try-

1) Move the Twonky startup script to the init.d directory
2) Remove the .sh extension. Some Linux variants handle scripts with a .sh extension differently.

[JimLill]

I wonder if I am running the correct binary (?)....

Debian on a NSLU2 would be:

Linux ARM little endian glibc 2.2.5

- or -

Linux ARM little endian uclibc 0.9.28

I tried both, both act the same

[JimLill]

surely this is a clue

SLUG:/usr/local/twonkymedia# /usr/local/twonkymedia/twonkymedia
-bash: /usr/local/twonkymedia/twonkymedia: No such file or directory
SLUG:/usr/local/twonkymedia#

but what it tells? ????

[parnott]

Ah well. Then check that the required libraries are installed.

Also try changing to the Twonky directory and try executing Twonky directly (see you have already tried). If you still get the problem then maybe the correct library is not installed or ldconfig needs to be run.

You may be right. Can't hurt to give it a try.
