Same for me.
Trying to connect to Ampache with Tomahawk (0.6.0) music player does the same : nothing happens.

Confirmed. It works only with

define (DEBUG, 'true');

in config.php and is broken in production mode.

@bartv2 can you advice here?

Same for me

Server configuration

Operating system: Debian Wheezy ARM

Web server: Nginx 1.2.1

Database: MySQL 5.5.28

PHP version: 5.4.4-14

ownCloud version: OwnCloud 6 Alpha Preview (Master Branch)

Client configuration

Browser: Android Browser on CM10

Operating system: CyanogenMod 10 (based on Android 4.2.2)

Same bug here closed but doesn't appear to solve the issue for me : owncloud-archive/apps#720

Maybe the function ?

function xmlentities($string) {
$not_in_list = "A-Z0-9a-z\s_-";
return preg_replace_callback("/[^{$not_in_list}]/", '\OCA\Media\get_xml_entity_at_index_0', $string);
}

I can confirm this bug, and also that ampache clients are not working in my case, even in debug mode.

Nice. @bartv2 Can you backport it?

backport in a09c87c

Streaming doesn't work on Android (CM10) with all Ampache Android Apps (like Just Player + Ampache Provider)

(I used the backport)

And Just Player developer has just said (1st April) : " However, the implementation of the playback is not over yet."

With adb logcat, I have things like this :

SkImageDecoder::Factory returned null
I/NuCachedSource2( 142): ERROR_END_OF_STREAM
E/MediaPlayer(16643): error (1, -2147483648)
E/MediaPlayer(16643): Error (1,-2147483648)
D/dalvikvm(16643): WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC blocked 58ms
D/dalvikvm(16643): WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC blocked 44ms
D/dalvikvm(16643): WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC blocked 20ms
E/MediaPlayer(16643): Error (1,-2147483648)
I/AwesomePlayer( 142): setDataSource_l(URL suppressed)
W/System.err(16643): java.lang.RuntimeException: setDataSource failed: status = 0xFFFFFFEA

Maybe, I should use Supersonic, the fork of Subsonic :

i also tested it with Just Player + Ampache Provider, you need to refresh the just player cache/database before it works.

[MorrisJobke]

Still having the issue too, tested with just player (I updated the DB before testing) and with rhythmbox.
If i remove the 'debug' option from config.php, The /remote.php/ampache is still not correctly accessible through a browser.
I just modified manually the 3 files as in owncloud-archive/apps@a09c87c

I reset everything. And it doesn't work again. (I'm using Nginx and MySQL)

EDIT : So, I'm now trying Groovebasin (big bug at the moment), Mopidy (not finished yet for streaming), Supersonic (too heavy for a Single-Board Computer)

I tried this last night using 5.0.5 and the URL http://server/owncloud/remote.php/ampache (which is different to what is provided in the user documentation on http://doc.owncloud.org/server/5.0/user_manual/mediaplayer.html).

Whilst amaroK would list the files, it refused the play them. I'll see if I can grab logs later on.

I have the same problem with 5.0.5 where it lists the files, but refuses to play them. I have tried the following clients, all with the same results:

• amaroK 2.7.0
• rhythmbox 2.98
• viridian 1.2

I would like to help with debugging this, so please let me know which logs I can supply.

Edit: Just to confirm to myself whether it was a networking, server, PHP version or any such related issue, I installed the latest available tarball version of Ampache (3.6-alpha5), and all three the above clients worked. That rules out quite a bit of to-and-fro, so I would gladly supply any debug that is deemed useful in order to help getting this bug fixed.

Hi. AmpacheX developer here. From what I see, the actual data request to get the songs data fails no matter what I have tried. I have not inspected the OwnCloud source for the issue however.

Same issue here. Ampache clients are able to list the tracks, but won't play then over a 404 error:

"GET /remote.php/ampache/server/xml.server.php/?action=play&song=1&auth=xxxxxxxxxxxx HTTP/1.1" 404 5 "-" "KDE Phonon"

[allen00se]

I see the same issue listed above, amarok sees the files but wont play.

[jhenkins]

It's a pity that the Ampache support in OwnCloud doesn't work. As a workaround I installed Amapache on my home server in it's own virtual host, and pointed it to the media folders in OwnCloud. That way I managed to get things going, but it would definitely be a better thing to have everything integrated properly in OwnCloud.

[saamo]

Has anybody found a workaround for this issue? (And I don't mean installing standalone ampache server...)

#FF #58

[stanelie]

@kabum , Why is this bug report closed?

I still have the issue and no fix...

[HLFH]

@stanelie

Wait Nov. 5th https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/milestones

[stanelie]

Hum...
I just browsed the list of open and closed issues for the upcoming Owncloud 6 and Ampache is not mentioned anywhere...

[MorrisJobke]

@stanelie This repo is for the new music app. I'm working on it. For the first release the ampache support isn't planed, but it should be included with the next release. I also have my current progress on ampache in a separate pull request #91. If you're looking for the issue in the old music app (called media and was shipped with OC5) go to the issue in the apps repo owncloud-archive/apps#778 - I reopened it, but there isn't any maintainer anymore.
