RE: MinimServer start error: see system log. - Paradox2701 - 05-04-2016 16:22
Hi Simon,
the problem has surfaced. I tried to capture what I can gather, with the minimserver-out.log file is captured at 19.42 on my NAS. I have also attached the minimserver log (truncated a lot of issues with naming of files/tagging) and the error log on my NAS. Hope all these are helpful.

there is no more 'on the right' of the error log. It just has that full stop.
For the error, the interesting thing is that as I mentioned the music still plays. Apparently the server will restart itself (??my wild guess??) and be able to run. When I reached home at 8 pm I could start the music using the UPnP controller just fine. The only indication of any error I get is that it is an error in the NAS log. So it has kind of bewildered me a bit. As I rescanned the server, I think I lost that minim-out log that you required that has time stamp 19:32, without realizing I erased that particular log.
From this, it seems that a stray '.' was somehow written to the minimserver-out.log file and this caused MinimServer to write the '.' to the system log. MinimServer did not fail to start and this is why it was running normally at 8 pm. You can safely ignore any similar occurrences. I will try to find out what caused the '.' to be written.

This is very puzzling. I don't think it is related to the naming/tagging issues but I am finding it hard to come up with any reasonable explanation. I will "sleep on it" now and come back to it tomorrow morning.

I think this might be a timing issue with the MinimServer launch script. If MinimServer is running correctly, you can safely ignore this message. I will change the launch script in the next version of MinimServer to close the potential timing window.
Thanks very much for letting me know about this problem!

Thank Simon for your wonderful work. And am very very appreciative that you made this wonderful music server for classical music, and made it accessible to everyone.
