more ifolder again

By basd on Jun 30, 2010 | In -arghhh!!

Good news! (Well, for me anyway...) I solved the ifolder issue.

...

Contrary to my earlier note it IS possible to repeatedly run simias-server-setup, and to move the install folder around. I know because I did it repeatedly and still ended up with success. The secret is a forum entry I had read before but overlooked. For some reason the installer (or maybe some version of the installer) does not correcctly set the privileges for /var/wwwrun. Must be user: wwwrun and group: www. Otherwise, a config file cannot be created.

Just an FYI, I'm running this thing on a Compaq Presario 2500 with only 512 mb ram. OpenSUSE 11.2, ifolder 3.80 (retrieved from the openSUSE build service under something like network/stable. With this computer, the i586 version is required.

Also, I installed the Windows client under Vista (i586 version) and that seems to be working as well -- although I haven't really finalized my folder setup, so I don't know that anything is syncing correctly -- but it's logged in.

And, my music collection has sync'd to the ifolder server. So, life is good.
