squeezeplay.sh didn't launch correctly jive
Last modified: 2010-04-08 17:26:27 UTC
When lauching jive using squeezeplay.sh, it appears that jive binary is unable to launch jive_alsa binary: 20091121 17:19:16.859 ERROR audio.output - decode_alsa_fork:169 execv failed 2 20091121 17:19:17.359 ERROR audio.output - decode_alsa_fork:184 jive_alsa failed to start This may be a PATH problem but adding the directory to PATH didn't solve issue. So I changed the content of squeezeplay.sh: Instead of: $INSTALL_DIR/bin/jive I put: cd $INSTALL_DIR/bin ./jive Then it starts correctly. Under Gnome (and perhaps KDE), it would be fine to get a .desktop file to launch the application. Here is the content of mine: #!/usr/bin/env xdg-open [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Version=1.0 Type=Application Terminal=false Name[fr_FR]=SqueezePlay Exec=/opt/squeezeplay/bin/squeezeplay.sh Comment[fr_FR]=SqueezeBox Icon[fr_FR]=/opt/squeezeplay/share/jive/jive/app.png Name=SqueezePlay Comment=SqueezeBox Icon=/opt/squeezeplay/share/jive/jive/app.png
