Getting there!

Although Maraschino is a Liqueur made with Cherries and has been around forever, Maraschino google results now mark the Web Interface as result number 3!

Not long before this thread gives Maraschino a whole new meaning! Big Grin

I made a basic Windows Installer which will install the necessary dependancies for Maraschino in windows:

Python 2.7.2
Setup Tools 0.6c11
cherrypy
Flask
Flask-SQLAlchemy
jsonrpclib


This is only an installer for the dependancies. You still need to download the Maraschino Repo and edit settings.py then run setup.py

After Installing the dependancies just follow Archigos' guide post #221 from here:

Archigos Wrote:Once each of those dependancies have been installed, change to the folder you have downloaded the Maraschino files to and:
Code:
copy settings_example.py settings.py
notepad settings.py
Set the correct path to the Database file.
Do NOT use "C:" as part of your database location: Ex. "/HTPC-Apps/Maraschino/maraschino.db" and when possible, make sure there are no spaces in the directory name. Using "/maraschino.db" for database setting will put it on the root of your C drive.
While inside the settings.py, make sure to un-comment the AUTH section and fill that in with the details for your XBMC Web Interface (this is NOT for MySQL details) as well as un-commenting the Port. If you use CouchPotato on default settings it will be using port 5000 so change this to port 5001 for example.

Next (still in command prompt)
Code:
python setup.py
start python maraschino-cherrypy.py
Only do the second command if the first one stated it was successful. Congrats.

If you want this to run on each boot, the easiest way is to create a bat file and put it in your Startup folder (this method only works while someone is logged in) there are other ways of making it run without log in.

Maraschino.bat
Code:
cd "Path to Maraschino"
Python maraschino-cherrypy.py

If anyone would like to test it to check it will correctly install all necessary depedancies for Maraschino using cherrypy feel free.

Hi,

i just installed maraschino (fresh clone from git) and have the following problem now.

If i want to save the credentials for the server settings and press the save button, nothing happens. I tried different browser (FF 8.01, IE 9, Google Chrome) but this didn't make any difference.

The error log file from apache contains the following lines:
Code:
127.0.1.1:80 192.168.1.101 - - [09/Dec/2011:22:50:46 +0100] "POST /xhr/module_settings_save/server_settings HTTP/1.1" 500 437 "http://x.x.x.x/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/535.2 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/15.0.874.121 Safari/535.2"

i get also the same error message with the other browser.

I see you are either using windows 7 or server 2008.

It looks like it could be a permissions issue.

Where exactly did you install maraschino?

I have mine installed at C:\HTPC-APPS\Maraschino, C:\HTPC-APPS\Python27 .... etc etc etc.

If yours is different maybe try re-installing using the same format as above.

Hi,

no i'm using ubuntu 11.10 on my htpc, this is the error log from apache, which shows the client connections.

I installed maraschino according the guide http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=929856&postcount=149

and replace htpcfrontend with maraschino in "/var/www/maraschino/maraschino.wsgi"

If you're on Ubuntu, why not just run it with python? Easier than Apache in my opinion.

Which .less css module/library does this use?

EDIT: Never mind forgot we using html for templates so its just the client side usage method.


- solidsatras - 2011-12-10

Is anyone running Maraschino successfully on a QNAP-NAS?
I´m still using MediaFrontPage and I want to switch to Maraschino soon.

for some reason my sabnzb is not working properly, how can i see a log to see if it's connecting to my sab machine


- Shaolin - 2011-12-10

I reckon MrK should be back any day now. Hopefully it will be another phrenetic spurt of activity in Maraschino when he does arrive back in Blighty. Pointless speculation i know; i'm just interested in what direction Maraschino will go when he comes back.

Anybody have the problem that sabnzb queue is not showing?It just displays the downloading file


- _Mikie_ - 2011-12-10

Malexx Wrote:Anybody have the problem that sabnzb queue is not showing?It just displays the downloading file

Mine was working but now not.. Maybe there's a bug. How many items in your queue?


- Malexx - 2011-12-10

doesnt matter,as soon as there is a queue it doesnt show


- _Mikie_ - 2011-12-10

Malexx Wrote:doesnt matter,as soon as there is a queue it doesnt show

Change the number of queue items to show. Maybe that'll fix it. Database value might has corrupted or something


- DejaVu - 2011-12-10

This is correct.
Regardless of the settings, if SanZNBd has nothing to do, Maraschino hides it. This is better than having an idle module.
