[coherence-dev] Fwd: Having issues getting coherence working...

[Phil Wild]

I have updated the Ampache page in the coherence wiki to include the
instructions about multicast
(http://coherence.beebits.net/wiki/Ampache).

I am now a lot closer... I had not picked up that I needed the
multicast route and with this in place, coherence appears on my
receiver displaying a named entry for each plugin in my config file.

I can browse and play music through the mediastore plugin so all good
here. This shows that coherence can talk to my receiver and stream
music to it. However...
I can browse the ampache plugin, but when attempting to play music, I
get a track not found message.
Any idea what I might have missed?

The ACL's in place in ampache are:
local                 127.0.0.1   127.0.0.1  Read/Write        Ampache
User (System)            ampache RPC
localstream  	127.0.0.1  	127.0.0.1  	Read/Write  	Ampache User
(System)  	 	Stream Access
localweb 	        127.0.0.1 	127.0.0.1 	Read/Write 	Ampache User
(System) 		Web Interface

My config file curently looks like this:

logmode = debug # none, critical, error, warning, info, debug
logfile = coherence.log
interface = eth1
serverport = 30020
controlpoint = no
web-ui = no
use_dbus = no

# <plugin active="yes">
#     <backend>AmpacheStore</backend>
#     <name>CDCollection</name>
#     <url>http://localhost/ampache/server/xml.server.php</url>
#     <key>ampache</key>
# </plugin>
#
[plugins]
  [[AmpacheStore]]
    name = CDCollection
    url = http://localhost/ampache/server/xml.server.php
    key = ampache
  [[MediaStore]]
    medialocation = /data/media
    name = Coherence MediaStore
