Uninstall

[Bce]

Hi,

I was wandering how to proper uninstall streeme, I am having some
problems so want to remove and start again.

[Richard Hoar]

On Windows, delete the Streeme project folder and uninstall xampp, the
restart windows just to make sure the service is turned off after
uninstalling.

Sorry, forgot to mention im using linux. (debian 6)

There's no particular uninstall for linux just remove the streeme
folder and the code and app configs are gone. If the server configs
(php and apache) are messed up, usually there are .default versions of
them to restore to defaults. Just type locate php.ini-dist or
httpd-default.conf to find them and copy paste over your old ones or
follow the reverse of the instructions on the site. Once you've
applied the new configs, restart apache. Linux is more power user
oriented, so there's usually not much of a wizard uninstaller unless
you used apt-get and remember the package names.

Hi Rich,

Sorry to bother you again but after removing streeme folder, deleting
databases, removing apache configuration, and then installing again, I
still cannot play music.

When I click a song it just cycles to the next one and carries on, I
have used chmod 777 on all the music files and folder containing them
but nothing seems to get it working. It had been working fine before
not it refuses to work.

Do you reckon you could help me?

Sounds like a common setup problem - check the docs here:
http://code.google.com/p/streeme/wiki/Troubleshooting#App_runs,_but_when_I_click_play,_it_just_cycles_through_all_the

Otherwise, you may need to use the logs to pinpoint the problem -
that's described a little further down.

Ok, I'll have a mess around tomorrow, what's the proper way to set
permissions for the folder containing the music?

There's 4 ways I know of on Linux:
You can use ACLs and give access explicitly to the apache user
You can chmod the file to be readable by everyone
You can add yourself and apache to a shared user group and give perms
to the music folder as a group
You can set the Apache user to be your system user (really bad idea)

Everything I try doesn't seem to work, can you give me an example of a
command you have used in the past that worked for you?

Something that will work with either debian6 or ubuntu 10.04

[Rich]

could you tell me what it's saying in your log/proxy.log file as well?
Are messages even making it to the log file when you tail -f log/
proxy.log? The cleanest way to set perms on linux is acls:

http://wiki.debian.org/Permissions#Access Control Lists in Linux
Access Control Lists in Linux

follow the steps to install acls

then you'd type like

setfacl -m u:www-user:7 /path/to/music
setfacl -d -m u:www-user:7 /path/to/music

where www-user is the name of your apache user. That should
recursively add your www-user to the ACL. I'd like to see what solves
that problem as I haven't had many users have Streeme working and then
suddenly have it stop due to permissions. Something else may be afoot,
so make sure to check your logs and the desperate measures section in
the guide. You might also try copying a song or two to another
directory and see if it works there - just in case app armor,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AppArmor, or some other system watchdog
app is blocking access to the files from being read by Apache.
