Solved: My Library is not updating
#1
Hi

I am a noobie to the software so please forgive me.

I have just set up a NAS source to my NAS via the NFS, which has giving me a green tick. "bit surprise that it didn't ask for a username and password "

I have then gone and rebooted my Moode in the hope that it would start to update my Music Library, but it has over 20 mins and nothing has happened.

what am I missing ?

which I am guesting is some of my Music folder

I have just added Everyone to have read only and I am still getting the same issue.

ok I have resolved this issue.

the steps I take to resolve this are:

create a share on my music folder, and give the user to whom I want to have access to it permissions. NOTE the user must have full access
then I want into Moodeaudio and used choose SMB as the protocol I wanted to use
then

Server                       192.168.0.7/media/Music
user id                       username
password                   password
name                         anything you like

then save.

I hope that helps you to resolve your issue

resurrecting this old thread... Looks like this is maybe still a bug? The initial import worked very well, but added some folders and kicked off a refresh and got the following.

Kind of strange, I'm getting the same thing from my NFS share, the permissions on that are 777, but I am mounting RO.

Looks like /var/lib/mpd/music/NAS is a symblink of /mnt/NAS

Not sure about that wonky SMB workaround...

Bug? Not likely, actually.

You've given no details about how you "added some folders", how you're exporting from your NFS server or how you're mounting in moOde. 

The long and the short of it is that whatever NAS configuration information you enter becomes part of a standard nfs mount command. Here's the result when I mount a directory being exported as "Test" from my server "OMV-HC1" (to which I assigned the friendly name "OMV-NFS")

Code:
pi@moode:~ $ mount
...
pi@omv-hc1:/Test on /mnt/NAS/OMV-NFS type nfs4 (ro,relatime,vers=4.1,rsize=131072,wsize=131072,namlen=255,hard,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,clientaddr=192.168.1.184,local_lock=none,addr=192.168.1.12)

If the initial import worked but you are getting "permission denied" on the added folders then you are caught in NFS purgatory. You'll have to figure out what's different about the ownership and permissions of the added folders/files. Google is your friend. Keep in mind that user names and group names don't count in NFS; it's all about the numeric uid and guid.

After decades of using NFS in a massive network of engineering workstations back in the day, I can candidly say I hate NFS.

As for the SMB workaround, since NFS and SMB are totally different technologies, the only way that could have worked is if the OP's server were exporting in both.

And, yes, there's some symlink magic going on.
