    hello,

    since some days the firefly mediaserver crashed at boot of my uNSLUng box. The log file reads:

    cat /var/log/mt-daapd.log

    Some search brought up that the database may be corrupt. I opened it with sqlite, dumped the content but could not find any errors. So I deleted the file (/opt/var/mt-daapd/songs.db). Then firefly started as normal and generated a new database, afterwards it served songs. But after reboot firefly crashed with the same message as shown above.

    Yust in case it is a memory issue, here the df output as well

    df
    Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
    rootfs 76683552 33178240 42726244 44% /
    /dev/sda1 6528 6348 180 97% /initrd
    /dev/sda1 76683552 33178240 42726244 44% /
    /dev/sda1 76683552 33178240 42726244 44% /share/flash/data
    /dev/sda2 116661 4181 111276 4% /share/flash/conf

    Any idea whats wrong here?

    The database file is most likely corrupted. Delete it, and then start firefly again.

    You may also try to boot without the HD, and execute an fsck, or e2fsck to repair any issues. But rebuilding the db from scratch is usually a safe bet.

    mhhh,

    does not run stable again again yet. as I said, I had tried to delete the songs.db – the failure occured again after reboot. Anyway, if I start firefly serveral times (5-7) from commandline with “S80mt-daapd” I get the same log every time, than suddenly it rebuilds the database and runs until reboot.

    Now an other try: changed database settings to use sqlite3 and deleted again the current songs.db – reboot was successfull. I will keep an eye on this.

    So I probably will loose my ratings in the database and the smart playlists I had… any idea how to transfer them in the new sqlite3 database from the old sqlite file?
    And last question: any idea out there how to write the song rsting direct into the ID3 tag of my mp3 files?

    yes, ron has outlined the commands to migrate the DB from sqlite2 to sqlite3 in the forums.

    Sqlite2 is buggy with svn-1696 on the slug! sqlite3 isn’t, however.
