With the help of BigFoot65 (thanks again!), I have my Amahi media server running with the media files on greyhole shares. I have the following shares set up in minidlna.conf:

Code: Select all

media_dir=A,/mnt/2TBSmallPart/landing-zones/music-LZ
media_dir=V,/mnt/2TBSmallPart/landing-zones/films-LZ
media_dir=V,/mnt/2TBSmallPart/landing-zones/videos-LZ
media_dir=P,/mnt/2TBSmallPart/landing-zones/photos-LZ

with permissions set to:

Code: Select all

drwxrwxr-x   5 xyz users  4096 Sep 14 14:34 films-LZ/
drwxrwxrwx  17 xyz users  4096 Aug 27 21:05 library-LZ/
drwxrwxrwx 607 xyz users 20480 Sep 10 01:25 music-LZ/
drwxrwxrwx  21 xyz users  4096 Sep 10 17:56 photos-LZ/
drwxrwxrwx  13 xyz users  4096 Aug 28 19:12 videos-LZ/

where xyz is the first Amahi user. When I access the media server from a DLNA client, I see the files in the films share but not those in the videos share. In the /var/log/minidlna.log file I see errors that look like this:

Code: Select all

[2012/09/23 10:33:12] inotify.c:89: error: inotify_add_watch(/mnt/2TBSmallPart/landing-zones/music-LZ/Zac Brown Band [2008] The Foundation  [No space left on device]

for each folder that is in the shares. There is ample space on each share, as shown here:

Code: Select all

Filesystem           Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb1            459G  175G  261G  41% /mnt/500GBDrive
/dev/sdd1             37G  4.4G   31G  13% /mnt/40GBDrive
/dev/sdc1            187G  120G   58G  68% /mnt/180GBDrive
/dev/sda1            1.6T  154G  1.4T  11% /mnt/2TBBigPartt
/dev/sda2            193G   25G  159G  14% /mnt/2TBSmallPart

The landing zones are located on 2TBSmallPart and the remainder of those listed are part of the storage pool. What's going on? I don't understand why minidlna is showing no space on those drives when it appears that there is space available. I also don't understand why the DLNA client is not listing all of the files in the "videos" share but does show the videos in the "films" share. The music and photos shares are listed on the DLNA client and appear to be read correctly.

Any thoughts? Thanks for the great community support.

Why are you dealing with landing zones?

If these are greyhole landing zones, you should be expecting to see or touch the files there as they are basically in flight.

There clearly is some partition somewhere out of space:

I appreciate you taking the time to help. I hear you about a partition being out of space, but there are NO partitions out of space on my server, as seen here:

That's all of the partitions and nothing is utilized more than 68%.

In response to your other point, BigFoot helped me out yesterday and indicated that MiniDLNA needs to be pointed to the landing zones in order to function correctly. I had MiniDLNA pointed at the locally mounted samba shares (mounted using the greyhole mount_shares_locally script) and the DLNA server wasn't showing any of my flies to the client. I changed minidlna.conf to point to the landing zones and now the content of three of the four shares appear on the DLNA client. Hence my confusion. I even changed the ownership on EVERYTHING to xyz:users as I read in other posts that miniDLNA requires that all folders and files be owned by FirstAmahiUser:users. Still no luck. What am I missing?
