+1 great work xbian devs

[CurlyMo]

I installed the latest updates to date and now have issues with my samba share that constantly gets unmounted...

Code:

Inst xbian-package-initramfs-tools [1.3.3-3a] (1.3.3-4a XBian devel repository:devel [armhf])
Conf xbian-package-initramfs-tools (1.3.3-4a XBian devel repository:devel [armhf])
Inst xbian-package-upstart-xbmc-bridge [1.1.0-5] (1.1.0-6 XBian devel repository:devel [armhf])
Conf xbian-package-upstart-xbmc-bridge (1.1.0-6 XBian devel repository:devel [armhf])
Inst xbian-package-xbmc-scripts [1.0.1-20] (1.0.1-23 XBian devel repository:devel [armhf])
Conf xbian-package-xbmc-scripts (1.0.1-23 XBian devel repository:devel [armhf])
Inst autofs (5.0.7-3 Raspbian:7.0/stable [armhf])
Conf autofs (5.0.7-3 Raspbian:7.0/stable [armhf])
Inst xbian-update [1.0.2-15b] (1.0.2-16a XBian devel repository:devel [armhf])
Conf xbian-update (1.0.2-16a XBian devel repository:devel [armhf])

and mounted again as soon as you access it

/etc/default/autofs
TIMEOUT=0 will disable umount

[CurlyMo]

Much of my programs fail because of this (default) feature.

I can't access the Pi's SMB-shares in OSX since last updates as well.

what should be the error ?

[CurlyMo]

Unable to reach the samba shares.

[CurlyMo]

Latests issues.
- SSHD doesn't autostart.
- Samba shares don't get mounted on boot, even when autofs timeout=0.
Mount -a doesn't work after boot. I first need to unmount my samba shares.
- Can you please remove the feature that comments the initramfs from the config.txt?

3. no, but you can force to stay on (/etc/default/xbian-initramfs with FORCEINITRAM=yes)
2. timeout=0 is saying not to unmount when mount are idle. you was describing that your shares gets unmounted. timeout=0 is solution to this. post

Code:

grep cifs /etc/fstab /etc/auto.master.d/auto.xbian

1. if it is not started, how do you start it later ?

---

in regards to point 2

remove "noatime" from /etc/auto.master.d/xbian.autofs (1st line at the end)

[CurlyMo]

2. that didn't work. I will try your other suggestion later.
1. By using vnc and then:
/usr/sbin/sshd
Not sure about the exact path.

[mk01]

post /run/upstart-ev.log

[mk01]

@all

samba and ssh not being started this is fixed - config-shell package was updating inetd.conf wrongly, making inetd.conf finally empty file.

latest xbian-config can recreate the correct entries by simply enabling the service again. as it realizes there is no config file, it will recreate it.

When installing the latest xbian-package-config-shell:

Terminal

msgfmt: error while opening "/usr/local/include/xbian-config/gettext/xbian.nl.po" for reading: No such file or directory

xbian-update:

Terminal

/var/lib/dpkg/info/xbian-update.postinst: line 736: /home/xbian/.xbmc/userdata/advancedsettings.xml: Permission denied

1. NL language is prepared (awaiting lang file) and this way reminding me I should do it.

2. you have it accessible via smb, symlink and for xbian user only? that part of postinst is there since pre-B2 ages. but I can hide the errors, if it bothers you

[CurlyMo]

2. it's indeed a symlink. Just hide the error.

The other errors are gone. System just started without issues with the latest packages.
