Description by doug:

In 1.0.1, I'm getting an error when trying to play files in LS Studio. The files do not play, and the following error message is shown:

Audio player error: Can't open URL file:///opt/livesupport/var/LiveSupport/storageServer/var/../../var/access/51d6ae4535d01518.ogg

    Is that file there? Can you play it manually with ogg123 or some other application?

      To quote Bill Clinton, "it depends on your definition of 'is'". The player is looking for a file in this location:

      /opt/livesupport/var/LiveSupport/storageServer/var/../../storageServer/access/1cea05fbfc0b5f99.ogg

      There is a file in this directory by that name, but it is a symlink to: /opt/livesupport/var/LiveSupport/storageServer/var/../../storageServer/var/stor/7c5/7c5d34cfa4d62c69

      There is a file at that location, but without an .ogg extension; there is also a file with the same name but with an .xml extension in that location.

      When I try to play the file in aplay, I get this info and an unlistenable file: Playing raw data '7c5d34cfa4d62c69' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono

      However, the file plays correctly in xmms and Totem.

      .

        Sebastian has been able to duplicate the problem, btw.

        In addition, this was the error message from the terminal, which was also from the other bug; I'm including it here too.

        (gLiveSupport:17409): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_bin_remove_func:

        assertion `GST_ELEMENT_PARENT (element) == (GstObject? *) bin' failed

        The 1.0.1 deb packages are broken. The mad and ogg vorbis gst-elements were not compiled into gstreamer. The packages will need to be regenerated.

            • resolution set to fixed
            • status changed from new to closed

            This issue as it is is fixed now.

            But I suggest to implement checks for needet packages.

            consumed time (roundet): - download tarballs from sourceforge: 1/2 h - install missing dev.-packages: 1/2 h - Ferenc´s double check: some minutes I guess - talking to Ferenc and figure out how to take the version to 1.0.1-2: 15 min. - compile run: 3h - upload to sourceforge and publish sources: 45 min.

              does this mean, that mad and vorbis were missing from the build-dependencies in the debian control file? if so, we should add them...

                They are in the control file, but for some reason dpkg does not care if they are missing, and builds the packages anyway. I have noticed this earlier, too.

                  The same problem has returned in the 1.0.2 Debian packages. libmad and libogg are missing from the gstreamer elements.
