Wget failing on ipkg install: Re: Wget failing on ipkg install

Hello all,

I am new to the site and was starting to implement some of the changes and sure enough it am having this same problem. I am excited to get going but can not get any of the modules to load.

I was trying to load nano

Collected errors:

Hello,
I just bought my "My book World Edition" and I've installed optware but when I try to install nano or anypackage with "/opt/bin/ipkg install" I receive this response:

Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs05q1armel/cross/unstable/vim_7.2-1_arm.ipk
Segmentation fault

Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs05q1armel/cross/unstable/nano_2.1.10-1_arm.ipk
Segmentation fault

What I can do?
Thank you and sorry for my bad english.

Hi,

I'm experiencing the same problem. Did you find any solution?

Thanks for that but still no joy, I think angiolin might be right about not being able to see the xfs file system. Hopefully, there'll be an update for Twonky soon. Fuppes Upnp server also works to be fair.

Check the directory that you have configured for media in mindlna.conf.
The one in your post is not explicit…

Your config
media_dir=shares/Public/Shared Videos

should read something like….
media_dir=/shares/Public/Shared Videos
(Directory name should start with a /)

I would really like some help with this too. I've got miniDLNA and running but no files appeared to be shared. I have added this line to miniDNLA.conf

media_dir=shares/Public/Shared Videos

Secondly, how do I stop miniDLNA running?

Thanks.

Who wants to get rid of excellent work? ;-)

You can trick your Worldbook to think it has an old version

 echo -n "01.00.14" >/etc/version

After that you can do an upgrade and all optware will be uninstalled…

ALL optware!

Hi,

I know what it causes and how to fix it….
I just finished a script to load this lighttpd-server on DD-WRT and just after its release the optware package broke…
So I was in a hurry to find the cause…

This line has to be in your lighttpd.conf

 server.event-handler = "poll" # needed on OS X server

This should insert it…

 CONF=/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf if ! grep -q "^server.event" ${CONF} ; then sed -i -e "s/#.*server.event.*/&\nserver.event-handler = \"poll\" # needed on OS X server/" ${CONF} fi CONF=/opt/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf if ! grep -q "^server.event" ${CONF} ; then sed -i -e "s/#.*server.event.*/&\nserver.event-handler = \"poll\" # needed on OS X server/" ${CONF} fi

I'm sure next version will be properly packaged….

I did an ipkg upgrade and it upgraded my of php and php-fcgi to version 5.2.11-1. Now my lighttpd server crashes every time it uses php-fcgi. My question is how do I downgrade to the previous versions? Is there an optware archive somewhere?

EDIT: I'm starting to suspect that the updated version of lighttpd/1.4.24 is causing the crashes. Anyone has the latest version of lighttpd working on his white light?

Hello Jim,

You can try to troubleshoot the segfault by starting the server in foreground (if supported) or by calling

strace /opt/sbin/minidlna

This should tell you what system calls are performed and it could pinpoint the problem.

Good luck

just to give you un update:
if i put some media (mp3 or jpeg) on /root then minidlna works ! (obviously you need to modify the medialibrary path).
/root is mounted on /dev/md2, ext3 type. I think that minidlna doesn't work on xfs filesystem type which is the filesystem type of /shares

I'm just installed minidlna with optware on my My Book World Edition (White Light). I configured the pathname related to medialibrary (/shares/Public) but it dont work. The problem (just see it in /tmp/minidlna/minidlna.log) is the following : 0 files found !!
Any hint ?
thanks in advance.

I have installed transmission on my book (blue rings) , but I have this stupid problem : Some of the torrents I have downloaded have titles with Greek characters and when I mount the share on my linux distro (kubuntu 9.04) the folders with the greek characters do not show up correctly and unfortunately I can not copy or open them (it says that the *** folder does not exist).Does anyone know how I can install a greek character set on my book ( I have changed the encoding on the samba configuration but it does not seem to solve the problem)?
Thank's Loukas

dbus problem: Re: dbus problem

Sun, 20 Sep 2009 20:24:09 +0000

There's no need to follow "the advice" I gave…
It does not work… just tested it.

It is missing a library-function and the guys from optware know exactly what's causing it…
Report it to them…

I think it's because it's checking for se_linux (security enhanced linux) and the library-function for checking this does not exist.

Here's ticket about a problem with checking it although they are able to check it.
That fix doesn't help…

dbus problem: Re: dbus problem

Sun, 20 Sep 2009 20:10:52 +0000

This kind of errors often are a result of a missing RPATH-variable during the compile/linking process of that package.
You should report it to optware

 ipkg update ipkg install chrpath chrpath -l /opt/bin/dbus-daemon

Do you have /opt/lib in your /etc/ld.so.conf file and have you run ldconfig?
If you done that and it still does not work you can work around it probably by changing that S20dbus script and adding

 export SET LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Hi!

I want to run netatalk on my World Edition (blue rings).
Avahi needs dbus. But when I tried to run dbus I see:

/opt/etc/init.d/S20dbus start

Starting system message bus: /opt/bin/dbus-daemon: can't resolve symbol 'environ'

How to fix it?
