Madsonic Support

It's working now.

The premium URL for my server went down yesterday.

I think it's something on the Madsonic backend.

Could this be the death knell for the whole thing?

I cannot connect to my madsonic domain today (***.madsonic.org). I can connect to Madsonic over my network using the IP address. Could this be the end of Madsonic? Here is the error: HTTP Status 500 - Request processing failed; nested exception is org.springframework.jdbc.CannotGetJdbcConnectionExce...

Hi thanks for the answer. I took your advice and upgraded to the latest version that you referenced. When I search for "Man Parrish" there are no results under Artists or under Albums, until I click the more button under Albums and then there are 3 matches, although the match is with the A...

Unfortunately, because search is such a critical function, I may have leave the Madsonic fold unless someone can help me figure out why search is not working for me. All my files are impeccably tagged, and the folders are also descriptive FWIW. Yet Madsonic search cannot apparently find files. I'm s...

See my other thread:

http://forum.madsonic.org/viewtopic.php ... 8009#p8009

Can anyone/someone help me figure out the search function for this software?

Is it as bad as it seems or is it operator error?

Are there any user settings that can make the search more accurate?

Are there any search methods that the user can employ to make searches more accurate?

I'm persevering here because SEARCH is arguably one of the most important features, especially for a large collection of music.

I enabled the tagging feature.

It took several hours to rescan my 400k+ file library.

However, even with this, Man Parrish appears after several other entries in the list and after I have clicked "More."

Strange.

I may be wrong but the beta of 6.3 on Windows seems to allow seeking within all types of files without setting changes.

A full scan took several hours: honestly I didn't time it.

A rescan takes about 30 mins.

Well. I've been testing it pretty extensively and it looks and feels good.

Best news: it's scanning tags now, I think.

Searches should be much more accurate if the music is tagged correctly.

Someone correct me if I am wrong.

WOOT. I scrubbed the old install and all the OS and browser caches. I installed the latest 6.3 build and was successful in that it is scanning my music (400k files) right now. I'll let you know what happens. The first scan didn't work too well, got only about 25% of my music. But I rescanned and th...

Best regards

Thank you. I will try. Did you say you were sending an email? I haven't gotten one.

So I installed the latest stable version of 6.2 and the web interface loads now.

It scanned my music and created a database.

The only problem now is that no cover art displays. Every cover displays as a black/blank square in the web interface in Chrome and in Firefox.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks.

I attempted to reinstall the beta for 6.3 from a stable version running on Windows 10. When I installed it the control panel said that it was running but I could not open the web control. Nothing happened at all. The browser didn't even open. So I uninstalled it and reinstalled the stable 6.2 versio...

Thanks for your reply.

What setting would that affect? How could I avoid evoking that bug?

Thanks.
