DLNA server won't start
DLNA server won't start
So, I've been playing about with DLNA and after a bit of a hickup (need to install RPMfusion packages first) I have it all installed but can't for the life of me get the service to start. Any ideas?
Re: DLNA server won't start
Can we see what's in your /var/cache/minidlna/minidlna.log file?
Execute the following command, and post here the URL you receive:
What do you get if you try to start the service from a terminal, as root:
What do you get if you try to start the daemon manually, as root:
Execute the following command, and post here the URL you receive:
Code: Select all
cat /var/cache/minidlna/minidlna.log | fpaste

service amahi-dlna start

Re: DLNA server won't start
Got it sorted. it was the rpmfusion packages which i had tried to install in fedora and not through the hda setup which worked well.
Re: DLNA server won't start
I have installed and uninstalled DLNA several times. Each time the web based installer tells me it completes successfully but the DLNA server shows stopped. After several iterations I started poking around. I have found that after installation there is no directory or files called DLNA or minidlna in the /var/hda/web-apps/ folder.
When I run "service amahi-dlna start the response is "unrecognized service" which would certainly make sense since there don't seem to be any files installed.
I was under the impression that once apps moved to "Available" status we should be able to install them without issue from the web interface.
I am running Fedora 12 an am comfortable from the command line if that is what is required I just need to be pointed to the install instructions if that is the case.

Re: DLNA server won't start
can you run this?
you should see something like:
also, did you install the rpmfusion apps?
Code: Select all
rpm -q amahi-dlna
Code: Select all
$ rpm -q amahi-dlna
amahi-dlna-0.91-7.x86_64
My HDA: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz on MSI board, 8GB RAM, 1TBx2+3TBx1
Re: DLNA server won't start
after first running the command rpm -q amahi-dlna I received the message package amahi-dlna is not installed even though the web interface showed it was but stopped as previously noted.
I "uninstalled" DLNA
Installed the RPMFusion (Free) apps
"Re-installed" DLNA
The install took a bit longer this time and in the end showed as successful and the DLNA server now shows as started.
Re-running the command rpm -q amahi-dlna returns amahi-dlna-0.9-6.i686
Thanks as always Carlos for your great support!

I also can't get the DLNA Server to start.
The result from:

No such file or directory.
No text to send.
I don't have a /var/cache/minidlna directory.

Re: DLNA server won't start
Did you try the commands that cpg mentioned above?I also can't get the DLNA Server to start.
Also see the tcvermil post just above yours, in case you have the same issue.

Re: DLNA server won't start
I have both RPMFusion packages installed.
Running the command rpm -q amahi-dlna returns amahi-dlna-0.9-6.i686

This is unbelievable. I have been trying to get this running for 2 days.
Just rebooted and now it is running.
I guess all I had to do was threaten to ask for help.
So far Amahi is great. I have 4 Windows based PCs and a PS3 all receiving media from the Amahi server.

Re: DLNA server won't start
It seems the problem with mine is not the DLNA Server at all. It's the http://hda/setup?sub=servers&tab=app page not displaying the Server status correctly.
The server is running fine but the status still shows Stopped.
