Serviio

Hello, I have installed Serviio on my Ubuntu server.
But how do I configurate it? I can't find any configuration-file. And how do I log into it?
I'm using Ubuntu 12.04-server. So I don't have a monitor to it, I only talk to it through SSH.

you are running serviio headless. You need to install the console on another computer that has a monitor and then you can configure it.

Hello Moltra,

Thanks for the help.

I'm guessing that you refer to installation part 4 here. Where I should change something on my C/program.... But I haven't got kanything on my Windows machine, only on the Ubuntu server. What should I download on my Windows machine? A link there would be helpfull.

Download Serviio 1.4 for windows, and when you install it, select just the console. You can then edit C:\Program Files\Serviio\bin\ServiioConsole.exe.vmoptions as described in the wiki to point the console at your server.

Hello,

Thanks again for the help.
But things still keep messing with me.
Nothing happens when I start to open Serviio Console (on my Win 7, 64bit).
At the first atempt it took a while and after that it told me it couldn't find the server (I was a little bit to fast and forgott to add the lines in "ServiioConsole.exe.vmoptions".
But after adding the lines here (and changed tp my servers ip), nothing happens when I klick the serviio console.
This file "ServiioConsole.exe.vmoptions" is empty. Should it be that?
At installation I unchecked the server edition, and kept the client and "top thing" (think it was about some libriries).

I haven't installed it on my C-drive (it's a small SSD, so I try to not install programs there). But I guess that this shouldn't do anything.

Any suggestons on what to do?

I found a log-file fron Serviio, it says:

The console is 1.4 and server 1.2.1 is this a problem? How come I can get wrong realises when I download them the same day?

Or is it a java error? If so, on windows (client) or Ubuntu (server)?

Any suggestions?

Yes they must be the same. Use http://download.serviio.org/releases/se ... nux.tar.gz

if you have graphical interface on your server, then you can run local console on ubuntu server... console script is in folder /bin, but i like to use remote console from my android phone.

Thanks, now I got that up and running as well.

But I still have one question.
As I mention earlier, I have an Ubuntu-server (running 24/7) where the movies are on. How do I point up those folders in the windows console?
I tried /\\localhost\Private\movies\ but that didn't work. How do I tell it to look on the server (that have serviio-server running)?

like this:

/disk.2TB/Music


(local linux folders)
