Universal Media Server | Forum

Hello. I have Debian, much the same as Ubuntu.

You have to be root and be able run an terminal.

Copy files:
/opt/ums (# mv UMS-<version> /opt/ums)

Config files:
/etc/UMS.conf
/etc/UMS.cred

Start-script:
/etc/init.d/UMS

Startscript i init.d: (UMS)
#cp UMS /etc/init.d/UMS

Activate in system ...

Yes, always. Mediafolders may have swedish characters.

I have installed the program under /opt/ums. The config in /etc. Start by system from /etc/init.d/UMS.
Startscript reads /etc/default/UMS if there is one. I think there's the best place to set local variables.
The computer runs 24/7 for MythTV ...

Problem Solved!
Startscript with:
export LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8

Thats the trick. Maybe it could be in ums.conf or in /etc/defaults/UMS.

Not quite wright... It's the startscript. Probably som variables missing. If I start usm via reboot and init.d script there is no folder with Swedish characters, but if I start as root via the same scrip there is.

I'll report when I'll solved it. Any tips?

Thank You!
So easy to have things going. The computer is running without a screen, just as a server för Mythtv, Logitec and UMS.
I didn't have to have mplayer in the box. UMS worked, but not with Swedish chars in folder/files.
Just to install mplayer and restart. All working! :P

Some problem to ...

Here is part of my debug.log: http://pastebin.com/bWknZG4P

I hope you can see how to have all folders/files viewable with any character.

Still can't upload, even with IE.

Upload attachment, choose file, add the file. Then I have to logon again - post is gone!

Can I mail the zip-archive...?

I have found a log (debug.log) but I can't upload (Debian.zip). I just get a new login and the message is gone.
No file?
How to upload?

Every folder and file with Swedish characters are no visibly.

In my Linux installation (Debian Squeeze) there is a problem, but I have managed to have UMS start when the computer start. ;)
All folders and files set to be viewable in network are not there.
If I have characters in swedish charset in names like åäöÅÄÖ the file/folder i hidden.

Is there a way ...
