Quick Start Guide for Installing JRiver Mediacenter 22 ARM on a Raspberry Pi

<< < (6/10) > >>

Try and simplify what you're doing.  Skip the RDP business for a minute and just try and get basic VNC working.  Is your pi set to boot to the graphical desktop?  What happens if you boot your pi plugged into a monitor.

Hello,
I did the upgrade from MC21 to MC22 and it works fine, however I have two small problems:

1. MC won't start automatically on reboot, I tried editing my nano ~/headless - but no cigar.
2. When I start it manually, MC22 keeps forgetting my local library server and I have to insert the access key manually again...?

Your advice is appreciated, thank you!

Could you paste your ~/headless file here using code tags? Have you altered the permissions of your home directory or ~/.jriver? What happens if you run ~/headless manually?

PrinterPrinter:

Sure,
Here's the code:


--- Code: ---#!/bin/bash
export USER=pi
ps -e | grep tightvnc || vncserver :1 -geometry 1920x1080
export DISPLAY=':1'
ps -e | grep mediacenter || mediacenter22 /mediaserver

--- End code ---

I didin't change any premisisons, tried to follow the instrcution to a new install of MC22.
i have no idea how to run /headless manually - a Noob ;)

Just run ~/headless from the terminal and see what output it gives you. Based on this combination of errors you are running into, it's possible that you accidentally nerfed your home directory permissions. Can you run
--- Code: ---ls -al ~/.jriver
--- End code ---
and paste the output (in addition to the output of ~/headless)?
