Q: I am getting 'oid' error messages and I run PostgreSQL-8.1.x+ | |
A: PostgreSQL-8.1 changed the default behavior of oid's and as a result this broke KmusicdB. Rerun the backup and restore from KmusicdB and it should work fine. If this is not an option, edit the dump file and add ' WITH OIDS' at the end of every 'CREATE TABLE' statement. This will force the creation of the oid table which is necessary for KmusicdB to work. | |
Q: Why do I get missing symbols errors when I install the RPMs from this website? | |
A: You have a different version of gcc than I do. As of 0.11.0 I will not be providing RPMs. They are available at apps.kde.com. | |
Q: KmusicdB crashes on startup. What is wrong? | |
A: Try a killall kmusicdb from a console. This is a known bug. | |
Q: I cannot compile libdbmusic, it cannot find QT, but I know it's installed. | |
A: If it is a non standard location (/usr/lib/qt304) then use --with-qtdir=/usr/lib/qt304 . | |
Q: I cannot connect to the server, I get an error message telling me the server isn't running, but I check and postgresql is running. What do I do? | |
A: Make sure your server is running with the -i switch. This allows TCP/IP connections. Edit the startup script and add -i . If your script uses pg_ctl , add -o "-i" .

Q: I have CDs that I KNOW are in KSCD, but KmusicdB does a remote lookup anyways. What gives? | |
cdparanoia does not display lead out or data tracks which are crucial to determining the correct lookup number. KSCD's libraries perform the correct lookup whereas my code cannot, therefore a mismatch. | |
Q: I just tried using CDDB to download my CD and it says it's not there and I know it is. | |
A: Try it a few more times, these servers are on a round robin I think, and they are grossly out of sync. Also cdparanoia does not calculate discid correctly all the time. | |
Q: I am running distro X and it won't work! | |
A: Try removing the installed version of kmusicdb, delete your
$HOME/.kde/share/config/kmusicdbrc , and a killall kmusicdb , d/l the new version and recompile. Some distros have
issues, especially if they use unstable versions of gcc or binutils, etc. | |
Q: How do I report a bug or make a feature request or submit code? | |
A: Email me at badhack@users.sourceforge.net. I really want your feature requests. |
