Python is running in frontview and the installation of headphones goes smooth but i cant start the service =( i always get "HeadPhones service failed to start." . Tried to reinstall and reboot with both addons but no succes =( Anyone who can help me on this ? im running 4.2.21.

Re: HeadPhones service failed to start

*SOLVED*

Changed the settings in etc/frontview/addons/bin/headphones/start.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
# This should contain necessary code to start the service

/etc/init.d/headphones start => /etc/init.d/headphones.dpkg-new start
and this solved everything

Re: HeadPhones service failed to start

I am having the same problem. Can you please tell me what commands to write in Putty to correct this issue like you did. I am not familar with how to use ssh and would desperately like to have this service started so that I can use it.

I have a readynas pro with the most current firmware and headphones installed via frontview.

Re: HeadPhones service failed to start

I figured out how to change the start.sh file to the settings you have outlined. Was i meant to replace /etc/init.d/headphones start with /etc/init.d/headphones.dpkg-new start ? Because everytime I tried to edit it so that it looked like /etc/init.d/headphones start => /etc/init.d/headphones.dpkg-new start it wouldnt start.

Regardless I have the service started which is great as frontview has the green light and told me it headphones service has started, but now I cant access the web interface.

Any ideas.

Strange that u cant open the addon ? It worked straight away for me but u might have transmission running on port 8181 aswell or ? If so stop transmission start headphones and the change port in the GUI for headphones.
