RE: xbmc minified as a server? - fma965 - 2014-05-10 i just realised i can't get json requests to be accepted, any ideas why? i tried sickbeard and manually using curl commands but neither give any output on both the log nor do the action.

Yep, i'm kinda confused though, what files do i need to actually have? i mean executables, in /opt/xbmc-server i have xbmc-server and xbmcVideoLibraryScan <webserver default="true">true</webserver> <webserverpassword default="true"></webserverpassword> <webserverport default="true">80</webserverport> <webserverusername default="true">xbmc</webserverusername> RE: xbmc minified as a server? - sparklyballs - 2014-05-10 (2014-05-10, 20:25)fma965 Wrote:(2014-05-10, 20:22)sparklyballs Wrote:(2014-05-10, 20:19)fma965 Wrote: i just realised i can't get json requests to be accepted, any ideas why? i tried sickbeard and manually using curl commands but neither give any output on both the log nor do the action. run top and see if the thing is actually running or not, look for xmbc_server.bin or some variation thereof.

Hmm ok, how did you build it? I may try rebuilding it from my guide i wrote since others dont seem to have issues with it, unless you built it differently? it's weird i always seem to have issues following my own instructions yet others have no issues :/ RE: xbmc minified as a server? - brownbear1984 - 2014-05-10 Fma965 I followed your guide on Ubuntu server 14.04 32bit and it doesn't seem to stay running. There's nothing obvious in the logs so I thought it might be due to my os but after seeing your comment it may be something else.

I started with a complete virgin installation of ubuntu server 12.04 running as a VM and i modified the installation slightly to allow scanning bluray rips correctly. i copied my files to /usr/local/lib too. here is the link http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=33310.0 RE: xbmc minified as a server? - fma965 - 2014-05-10 (2014-05-10, 21:01)brownbear1984 Wrote: Fma965 I followed your guide on Ubuntu server 14.04 32bit and it doesn't seem to stay running.

Hmm thanks for that, although my xbmc-server does keep running i also don't see anything in logs but if it's not doing anything surely thats normal? Well if i get it sorted i will be sure to update/fix my guide.

There's nothing obvious in the logs so I thought it might be due to my os but after seeing your comment it may be something else. also i got the dependencies by using the XBMC ppa (information in the ubuntu.readme in docs folder of the git pull) i also compiled taglib from another source than that given in the readme i mentioned above. |
