Twonky on AVM Fritz!Box 7270
Posted: Thu Jul 24, 2008 10:35 am
Hello,
yesterday, I installes the Twonky Trial on my AVM Fritz!Box 7270, it's a Linux-based Router, requiring the "Linux MIPS little endian uclibc 0.9.28".
Fortunately, I had a guide of a user who had done this installation before, so everything worked quite well
Twonky needs to be installed on an external HD and is also using the workdir on this drive due to limited RAM in the Router (so I had to change this entry in twonkymedia.sh).
After installation, I can access the Webfrontend and configure the mediafolders etc... Everything works fine and the mediafolders are scanned completey (resulting in approx. 18000 Musicfiles and 5000 pictures). The access to the mediafiles from my clients works also fine.
But unfortunately, some minutes after the filescan is finished, the router reboots.... This is absolutely reproducible and indpendet of any access to the mediafiles.
As a result, I had to disable Twonky to achieve a stable router again... The problem is, that I don't have a clue, what happens and causes the router to reboot, or where/how I can search for the error.
Can anybody help me to pinpoint the cause for these reboots? I'd really like to use (and buy) twonky, but it surely needs to be stable... Now I have 29 days left for evaluation (and problem resolution..).
Thanks in advance
