Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
For the mt-daap issues all these seems to be related to the following criteria:
* The update was run "by hand" and the new mt-daapd config file was not installed. Since the ownership of the database was changed running the service as mt-daap does not work.
The fix to this is to change the "runas" parameter to say "www-data" instead of "mt-daap".
* In the process of testing, removing the database will cause it to be rebuilt by the user running the mt-daapd service. So if the database was removed and the service started again as "mt-daap" it will be recreated by that user with permissions for that user. In this case when changing the "runas" parameter, the database file needs to be removed again, since it was now created by "mt-daap".
I hope that this makes some sence for you....

Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
Problem is my database will only rebuild (for some reason) if I start mt-daapd with run as set to root. If i use any other user (www-data or mt-daapd) it has no access to the database (directory)

Blinkem,
What permission do you have on the database folder?

Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
I'm afraid the mentioned suggestions did work on my end:
- altered 'runas' to www-data in mtdaapd.conf
- removed the database
- restarted mt-daapd
However, I still can not connect to Bubba 2 using Rhytmbox (worked instantly before the upgrade) nor does the Firefly page show anything.

I get a "permission denied", but I'm not sure it has to do with the database folder

I have runas set as www-data in the conf-file
I had a thought in another thread http://forum.excito.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2279#p10968 that since www-data is not apart of the group users it therefor wouldn't have access to the /home/storage/music/ catalog. The user mt-daapd on the other hand is!
My music catalog is chmod 770 for user: nobody and group: users

Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
Gentlemen,
PLEASE include an option for default website sercurity. Once again with this update my websit is totally unsecure as anyone on the web can access the directories view all of the security files on the web server.
I realise in some cases this is what people want, but in other cases we don't.
I will configure my apache differently to prevent this problem in the future, but for all the others that don't know how to do this could be left vulnerable.
Maybe a some options to better configure the default website security could be handy.
Kind regards.

Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
Hi jonte and others,
Regarding mt-daapd. We did make a drastic change with version 2.0 of our UI. To be able to expose the FirePlay applet in an easy secure way we had to run the mt-daapd server as the same user as the web server (www-data)
So if you want this feature to work you have to have the runas option set to www-data
Then it seems like some of you have problems with access to the /home/storage/music for mt-daapd. It is required that the mt-daapd user, ie www-data, have access to the music folder.
One quick way to fix this is by running, as root,
Please don't add the www-data user to the users group since that would have security implications.
Regarding bubbamon, this is something that slipped our testing
We are working on a fix which should hopefully make it into an bugfix release soon.
Regarding the other upgrade failure, this is being worked on as we speek and hopefully we will release a hotfix for this shortly.
Apart from that we really would like feedback on what works and what don't in the new UI. Any rough edges? Anything annoying on navigation or operation? Something that you think works well? Please let us know.
Regards,
/Tor

Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
I tried changing mode on the music folder, stopped the mt-daapd service, removed the database file and started, but I still end up with the same error from the log file.tor wrote:Then it seems like some of you have problems with access to the /home/storage/music for mt-daapd.

Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
We have now released an bugfix to resolve the upgrade issues some people have had. This is both included as an normal upgrade and as an hotfix.
The new version will be 2.0.1 which is defined in the normal upgrade.
The hotfix will basically install a new version of bubba-backend before main upgrade will continue.

Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
Tried the chmod suggestion as well, but no avail. Neither FirePlay nor Rhytmbox connect.
mt-daapd is running. Using 'top' reveals that it takes between 14% and 35% of CPU (rebuilding the database).
I do hope a solution is found soon enough. Listening to my music is one of the three main uses of my Bubba 2.

Online manual gone
I just noticed that the online manual (i.e. the webapges on the Bubba itself) are no longer there. The link to manual get's me a PDF download.And this document contains far less information than the older online manual (e.g. the various media services, like media tomb) are no longer there. I miss that information.
Re: Release notes for BUBBA|2 version 2.0
Hi all,
Regarding the manual. We are in the works on rewriting the full manual. The "old" one can still be reached on our homepage:
http://download.excito.net/web/BubbaTwo ... index.html
Linked from here:
http://www.excito.com/bubba/support/download.html
Regarding mt-daapd, we are working on this, unfortunately we have a hard time reproducing the error in our test environment. So if anyone with the problem could volunteer and provide us ssh access to their faulty unit it probably would speed up this matter. Please contact us on support@excito.com in this matter.
