I just out of the blue on a fantastically well working Media Server (been running perfectly for about 6 weeks since initial setup) began having issues with the database not being updated. I am running a LinkStation LS1 running Freelink 1.1 and the 2.6 kernel upgrade. Firefly is version “svn-1586” and using sqlite. I followed the above “litmus test” using “nobody” as the su and WAS able to read my mp3 directory just fine. From my error log:
2008-01-13 11:15:06 (3001f380): Rescanning database

2008-01-13 11:15:08 (3001f380): Scanned 0 songs (was 0) in 2 seconds
Permissions on the mp3 directory are set at:
drwxrwxrwx
So I don’t think this is an issue but am a Linux newbie so all help is appreciated.
Thanks…
