twonky on usb-stick?

I copied the twonky directory to the usb stick and modified the startup script to point to the new location as follows:

#!/bin/sh
route add -net 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0 dev egiga0

cd /mnt/usb/twonky
/mnt/usb/twonky/twonkymedia &


Twonky starts up ok and starts indexing the files as specified in the webconfig. But when the indexing is finished, the amount of files in the database is decreasing again to 0.

Is twonky on usb not possible or did i make a mistake somewhere?

Re: twonky on usb-stick?

This happened to me also, but I fixed it a while ago.

Open and edit the "twonkyvision-mediaserver.ini" file. The are a few file paths in there that need to be changed to locate database on the USB drive.

Check for the following line: (these are my settings, yours will depends on your file stucture on USB)

# Cache directory
cachedir=/mnt/USB/twonky/twonkymedia.db/cache

# MediaServer database directory
dbdir=/mnt/USB/twonky/twonkymedia.db

Then reboot the DNS, log into Twonkey and in Maintenance screen click "Rebuild database", then do a rescan.

Sorted.
