Alsamixer

[nic]

Just when I was about to start building an active setup using the Piano 2.1 DAC , I can no longer get into Alsamixer . I am using the ip:8080 and getting connection refused . Any ideas what is going on ?

cheers

Hi Nic,

the Alsamixer (Port 80(0) is only available on my latest image.
Did you modify something? Kernelupdate or so?

Hi Frank , Thanks . I have the latest version running and was able to view the Alsamixer page previously . No changes made to kernel , 4.4.39-A is running .

Edit : It's running 0.4b .

cheers

just use the command line....maybe not as elegant but it works.

no changes to mpd as well? IIRC updating mpd using rern' s enhancements broke the alsamixer settings page in my case.

Hi grofweg ,

the alsamixer webui is implemented by a python script running in the background.

* Please get access to the console and check the status:

Code: Select all

systemctl status amixer-webui

The output should look like this:

If you get errors please post your output.

* Next try to start the script manually:

Code: Select all

systemctl stop amixer-webui
python /usr/share/amixer-webui/alsamixer_webui.py

- Get access to the console:
Use SSH from your PC

If you are not familiar with SSH read this for Windows or this for Linux/MacOS
The default login for RuneAudio is "root" with the password "rune" (without quotes).

- Use sftp to access files on Rune Audio:
Get WinSCP from here and install it.
When it opens setup the following:
- Session
File Protocol: SCP
Host name: The IP address of your Raspberry Pi
User name: root
Password: rune

That's it, connect and you can transfer files just by dragging and dropping.

Thanks Frank,

just did a fresh install and installed rern' s addon, and upgraded mpd to 0.20.20.
With the same result, no acces to page 8080.

Hi grofweg,
if you just run the thing which failed from the command prompt it will often report more details about the reason for failure. In this case run the command:

Code: Select all

/usr/share/amixer-webui/alsamixer_webui.py

See what comes back.

isn't that what I already did? To be clear here: I have 2 sd cards with Rune 0.4.
1- plain Rune 0.4, 8080 page accessible without issue.
2- Rune and installed rern enhancements. Updated mpd to 0.20.20. During this update, several python packages are updated! This might be part of the problem.

I have a rpi 3b.

Hi grofweg,

Yes.

Ther problem is missing FLASK package

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/amixer-webui/alsamixer_webui.py", line 17, in <module>
    from flask import Flask, Response
ImportError: No module named flask

Try:

Code: Select all

pip install flask

from amixer-webui doc:
Server requirements
* python2.6 and newer; or python3.3 and newer
* python-pip as prerequisites for Flask (pip install flask)
* alsa-utils
* alsaequal (OPTIONAL: for equalizer)
