WARNIG:This install is recomended for all N4F install , embeded or full, and install into a jail is the default /prefered method of installing packages in nas4Free to avoid problems.

1 - You need to create a new jail called "serviio" using "TheBrig"

serviio 1.jpg

Once created, you are ready to install serviio.

First you need to log in your jail, in my case:

Code: Select all

alicia: Data # jls
   JID  IP Address      Hostname                      Path
     2  192.168.1.191   serviio.local                 /mnt/Data/Jail/serviio
alicia: Data #

as you see I define my serviio jail as IP=192.168.1.191 and actually his ID=2

so log inside your serviio jail:

Code: Select all

alicia: Data # jexec 2 csh
root@serviio:/ #

now you need to install latest ports:

Code: Select all

portsnap fetch extract

once done you can see +ports on TheBrig WebGUI

to install serviio from ports:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/ports/net/serviio/ && make install clean

Build with these options that are recommended from here:http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=build_ffmpeg_linux

• AMR_NB
  AMR_WB
  ASS
  FAAC
  FFSERVER
  FREI0R
  ICONV
  LAME
  RTMP
  THEORA
  VORBIS
  VPX
  X264
  XVID

and time to add autostart:

Code: Select all

echo 'serviio_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
echo serviio_args=\'-Dserviio.advertisementDuration=\"15\" -Dserviio.remoteHost=\"192.168.1.191\"\' >> /etc/rc.conf

Remember to use your serviio jail IP here.

Code: Select all

chown -R dlna:dlna /usr/local/etc/serviio

time to add servio to host in jail:

Code: Select all

ee /etc/hosts

add proper IP, in my example is:

Code: Select all

192.168.1.191       serviio.local

Code: Select all

chown -R dlna:dlna /var/db/serviio
chown -R dlna:dlna /var/log/serviio
chown -R dlna:dlna /usr/local/share/java/classes/serviio/

now you are ready to start serviio first time:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/serviio start

you can start, stop and see status so next command can be:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/serviio status

Code: Select all

root@serviio:/usr/local/share/java/classes/serviio # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/serviio status
serviio is running as pid 8329
root@serviio:/usr/local/share/java/classes/serviio #

PD: when start serviio perhaps have some warnnings like this:

Code: Select all

root@serviio:/usr/local/share/java/classes/serviio # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/serviio start
Starting serviio.

or here: http://forum.serviio.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=5330

some help is needed.

Reserved

[alexey123]

I not see any problem.
But I installed another way. Ffmpeg1 I install over portmaster
Apache22 I install from ports (only for check php module.)
Configure Appache for php - index and application type
Then add

Code: Select all

pkg_add -r php5-curl
pkg_add -r php5-xml
pkg_add -r php5-mbstring
pkg_add -r php5-simplexml
pkg_add -r php5-json
pkg_add -r php5-dom

Then

Code: Select all

pkg_add -r openjdk6
cd /usr/ports/net/serviio && make install clean

Unzip serviioweb-1.4 into /usr/local/www/apache22/data
And after

Code: Select all

apachectl start 

it work


My phpinfo() output


I not like serviio, I use minidlna.

[alexey123]

For apache :
Add to loader.conf over webgui

Code: Select all

accf_http_load = "YES"

repair into /usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf

Code: Select all

Listen <Your Jail Ip>:80

Code: Select all

<IfModule dir_module>
    DirectoryIndex index.php
</IfModule>

add 2 lines to section

Code: Select all

<IfModule mime_module>

AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</IfModule>

For php:

Code: Select all

cp /path/2/jail/usr/local/etc/php.ini-production /path/2/jail/usr/local/etc/php.ini

[tsrodger]

My PHP errors from Web console 1.4b look like this

[alexey123]

tsrodger May be serviio not running?
Invalid argument for foreach array only if array empty

[tsrodger]

tsrodger May be serviio not running?
Invalid argument for foreach array only if array empty

It's right! Serviio was stopped, due to there was error in rc.conf (Serviio arguments in two line) and serviio could not start:

Code: Select all

serviio_args='-Dserviio.advertisementDuration="15
 -Dserviio.remoteHost="192.168.1.4"'

so i fixed this line to

Code: Select all

serviio_args='-Dserviio.advertisementDuration="15" -Dserviio.remoteHost="192.168.1.4"'

And now everything working fine! THNX

[alexey123]

I checked - lighttpd work also.
My install

Code: Select all

pkg_add -r lighttpd

Add lighttpd_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf
As config I use NAS4Free webserver config, NAS4Free file /var/etc/webserv.conf
I just replace document root

Code: Select all

server.document-root = "/usr/local/www/apache22/data/"

And cosmetical repair

Code: Select all

server.pid-file = "/var/run/lighttpd.pid"
cgi.assign = (".php" => "/usr/local/bin/php-cgi")
server.tag = "webserv"
server.upload-dirs = ( "/var/tmp" )
server.max-request-size = 2097152
server.bind = "10.0.0.19"

I attach my lighttpd.conf

But serviio need any console output, some /var/log/serviio/console.log
messages into log

Code: Select all

Hi.

I found a bug.
Once serviio started automatically when jail starts, File Encoding is set to ASCII and national characters in filenames is wrong.
After manual restart everything is OK and File Encoding is set to UTF-8.
I don't know why rc script don't see locale settings. But solution is to set parameter serviio_lang in rc.conf:

serviio_lang="en_US.UTF-8"

Perhaps, it will be useful for someone...

[howi42]

1. How did you manage to get serviio to start automatically ?

I always have to login and do a 'service serviio start' manually to get it to run.

2. Setting the language in rc.conf does not seem to help for local characters.

Anything else I could try ?

[raulfg3]

How did you manage to get serviio to start automatically ?

Enable serviio in your /etc/rc.conf file.

Code: Select all

serviio_enable="YES"

[howi42]

That is my rc.conf :
sendmail_enable="NONE"
syslogd_flags="-ss"
rpc_bind="NO"
network_interfaces=""
cron_flags="$cron_flags -J 15"
serviio_enable="YES"

but that does not help.

[howi42]

And this is serviio in rc.d :

#!/bin/sh

# $FreeBSD: ports/net/serviio/files/serviio.in,v 1.2 2012/01/14 08:56:27 dougb Exp $
#
# PROVIDE: serviio
# REQUIRE: LOGIN
# KEYWORD: shutdown
#
# Add the following line to /etc/rc.conf[.local] to enable serviio:
#
# serviio_enable="YES"

. /etc/rc.subr

name=serviio
rcvar=serviio_enable
command=/usr/local/sbin/serviiod

load_rc_config $name

serviio_user=${serviio_user-"dlna"}

command_args=" &"

stop_cmd="$command -stop"

[goldhonda]

Hi
Good guide and I have a working serviio server now thanks to this.
One thing I would like to know is where is the plugins folder now for the serviio groovy files ets.
Thanks

update added plugins folder to /usr/local/share/java/classes/serviio/ and now online stuff all woking.
update moved folder to /var/db/serviio/home/plugins

I was having a problem with saving folders in the web ui

I used this page to install servviio but the following page to install the webUI (including using port master)
http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=how ... ll:freebsd

I found that you have to use the most current webui
http://forum.serviio.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=12593

https://github.com/SwoopX/Web-UI-for-Se ... io-1.5.zip

[mrjrussell]

Install Serviio WEB UI from http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=how ... ll:freebsd
Using current WEBUI file I can confirm this works.

First install portmaster.
portsnap fetch update
cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portmaster && make install clean

Install Apache 2.4 and PHP5 prequisities for PHP WebUI Interface

Code: Select all

portmaster www/apache24
cd /usr/ports/lang/php5 && make config WITH_APACHE=YES
portmaster lang/php5 www/mod_php5 ftp/php5-curl textproc/php5-xml converters/php5-mbstring devel/php5-json textproc/php5-simplexml textproc/php5-dom

Fetch the current WebUI

Code: Select all

cd /tmp && fetch https://github.com/SwoopX/Web-UI-for-Serviio/archive/Serviio-1.5.zip
unzip -d /usr/local/www/apache24/data/ Serviio-1.5.zip

Configure httpd.conf file

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/etc/apache24; cp httpd.conf httpd.conf.original
perl -pwi -e 's^DocumentRoot "/usr/local/www/apache24/data"^DocumentRoot "/usr/local/www/apache24/data/Web-UI-for-Serviio-Serviio-1.5"^g' httpd.conf
perl -pwi -e 's^<Directory "/usr/local/www/apache24/data">^<Directory /usr/local/www/apache24/data/Web-UI-for-Serviio-Serviio-1.5>^g' httpd.conf
perl -pwi -e 's^DirectoryIndex index.html^DirectoryIndex index.html index.php^g' httpd.conf
perl -pwi -e 's^AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz^AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz\n AddType application/x-httpd-php .php\n AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps^g' httpd.conf

Optionally, update email contact and host/domain name and copy/paste the following in-place edits.
(I did not use this )

Code: Select all

perl -pwi -e 's^ServerAdmin you\@example\.com^ServerAdmin YOUR.EMAIL\@mydomain.name^g' httpd.conf
perl -pwi -e 's^#ServerName http://www.example.com:80^ServerName serviio.mydomain.name:80^g' httpd.conf

Activate Apache

Code: Select all

echo 'apache24_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
apachectl start

Also when I installed serviio two folders had to be created before I could change ownership
So i would change this above

Code: Select all

chown -R dlna:dlna /var/db/serviio
chown -R dlna:dlna /var/log/serviio
chown -R dlna:dlna /usr/local/share/java/classes/serviio/

to

Code: Select all

mkdir /var/db/serviio
mkdir /var/log/serviio
chown -R dlna:dlna /var/db/serviio
chown -R dlna:dlna /var/log/serviio
chown -R dlna:dlna /usr/local/share/java/classes/serviio/

[Jabberwocky]

I installed the new 1.7 version, and notice that serviio frebsd guide was outdated, so update the guide. If anyone is interested to install lastest version (with support to transcoding multiple language =) ), can follow the mentioned guide:
http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=how ... ll:freebsd

Best regards.
