Strange Brew: The Blog of Warren Strange

Eric Bautsch has kindly given me permission to post his latest updates for running slimserver on Solaris. He has made a few improvements over my previous scripts, so you might want to use these instead.


Here is a shell script used to build the slimserver distribution:

cd /usr/local
gunzip -c /sw/src/audio/slimserver/SlimServer_v6.5.0.tar.gz | tar xfv - \
        >> ${LOG} 2>&1
mv SlimServer_v6.5.0 slimserver >> ${LOG} 2>&1
mkdir /usr/local/slimserver/cachedir >> ${LOG} 2>&1
chown -R slimsrv:slimsrv slimserver >> ${LOG} 2>&1
cd slimserver/Bin >> ${LOG} 2>&1
export PATH=${PATH}:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/sfw/sbin
echo "/usr/bin/perl\n/usr/local/slimserver\n/tmp" | \
        ./build-perl-modules.pl >> ${LOG} 2>&1
cd /tmp/XML-Parser* >> ${LOG} 2>&1
perl Makefile.PL EXPATLIBPATH=/usr/sfw/lib EXPATINCPATH=/usr/sfw/include \
        >> ${LOG} 2>&1
cd /usr/local/slimserver/Bin >> ${LOG} 2>&1
echo "/usr/bin/perl\n/usr/local/slimserver\n/tmp" | \
        ./build-perl-modules.pl >> ${LOG} 2>&1
cp -p /sw/src/audio/slimserver/my.tt /usr/local/slimserver/MySQL >> ${LOG} 2>&1
cp -p /sw/src/audio/slimserver/slimrun /usr/local/slimserver >> ${LOG} 2>&1

svccfg import /sw/src/audio/slimserver/slimserver_manifest >> ${LOG} 2>&1
svcadm enable slimserver >> ${LOG} 2>&1

Note: The above double call of the build-perl-modules.pl with the manual build of XML-Parser was neccessary because XML parser requires expat but appears to be unable to pick up that it's in /usr/sfw, despite set PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

my.tt is simply modifed in that mysql provided in /usr/sfw does not like innodb, default-character-set and default-collation, so I have hashed these out.

slimrun is attached and simply sets the PATH to find mysqld prior to calling slimserver.


Here is the slimrun script:


#!/bin/sh

PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/dt/bin:/usr/platform/i86pc/sbin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/sfw/sbin
export PATH

exec /usr/local/slimserver/slimserver.pl --cachedir=/usr/local/slimserver/cachedir --user=slimsrv --group=slimsrv --audiodir=/apps/jukebox/NEW/xmcd --prefsfile=/usr/local/slimserver/cachedir/slimserver.pref --pidfile=/usr/local/slimserver/cachedir/slimserver.pid $*
