The prerequisites are you have root access on your FreeBSD machine (or jail), the ip address of the machine (or jail) and the Libresonic war available at the [Libresonic github page](https://github.com/Libresonic/libresonic/releases) + +If on FreeNAS create a standard jail in the web interface and enter the shell. + +### 1. Install Tomcat +To run Libresonic we need a server to run it in. Log into your machine and then run these commands either as root or with sudo + + #pkg install tomcat8 nano + +Hit y on all prompts to complete installation of Tomcat + +### 2.Configure Tomcat +Edit Tomcat's user configuration file with your favourite text editor. We installed nano in step 1. + + #rm /usr/local/apache-tomcat-8.0/conf/tomcat-users.xml + #nano /usr/local/apache-tomcat-8.0/conf/tomcat-users.xml + + +Copy this +> + + + + + + + + + + + +Use Ctrl-O to save and y to confirm. Ctrl-X to exit Nano. + +If you wish to use a different username and password please append the second last line to contain your preferred username and password. + + + +### 3. Start and test Tomcat + #echo tomcat8_enable="YES" >> /etc/rc.conf + #service tomcat8 start + +Test Tomcat is listening on port 8080 + # netstat -an | grep 8080 +It should return a line containing the IP address of your system (or jail). ie mine returns + + tcp4 0 0 10.0.0.10.8080 *.* LISTEN +If in a jail it may also return the line "netstat: kvm not available: /dev/mem: No such file or directory" This can be ignored. + +### 4. Create directories and set up permissions + #mkdir /var/libresonic + #chown -R www:www /var/libresonic + #chown -R www:www /usr/local/apache-tomcat-8.0/webapps + +### 5. Deploy Libresonic +Open a web browser and enter your servers IP address in the url bar followed by :8080 eg + + 10.0.0.10:8080 + +You should be greeted by the Apache Tomcat page. Click on the Manager App button on the right of the page and enter the username and password used in step 3. Default was username: admin and password: admin + +Scroll down to Deploy and the subheading "WAR file to deploy" hit choose file and select the libresonic.war downloaded in the preamble. After selecting press the deploy button. Scroll up and press start. When the page refreshes a message "OK - Started application at context path /libresonic-v6.0.1" should be visible. + +### 6. Navigate to Libresonic + +In a browser. Take your server IP address and port and append the name of the libresonic war file you deployed. +ie if the War deployed was called libresonic-v6.0.1.war navigate to: + + 10.0.0.10:8080/libresonic-v6.0.1/ + +### 7. Log into Libresonic + +Log in. The default is username: admin password: admin +Follow the prompts on the web page to change the password. This will log you out. Please re-login with your new password + +### 8. Set up media +If you are on FreeBSD in a jail, consult the documentation for your Jail Manager tool on how to pass through storage. If using FreeNAS please use the FreeNAS webui to pass through the dataset containing your music. + +In Subsonic click 2. Setup Media folders. + +Name your media folder and put in the path to your music. Then click "Scan media folders now" + +Congratulations you have set up Libresonic + +##Transcoding Support + +If you want transcoding and DON'T need mp3 support + + #pkg install ffmpeg + #ln -s /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg /var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg + +Congratulations you have transcoding enabled + +If you need mp3 support and most likely you will the process is more arduous as FreeBSD's ffmpeg doesn't contain mp3 support by default and must be configured and compiled by the user. + +### 1. Instell ffmpeg dependencies and Ports Tree + +Install the dependencies required to build and use ffmpeg + + #pkg install yasm binutils texi2html frei0r v4l_compat gmake pkgconf perl5 fontconfig freetype2 opencv-core schroedinger libtheora libv4l libva libvdpau libvorbis libvpx libx264 xvid gnutls libiconv + +Now install the FreeBSD Ports Tree + + #portsnap fetch + #portsnap extract + + +### 2. Build ffmpeg +Navigate to the ffmpeg port directory + + #cd /usr/ports/multimedia/ffmpeg + +Configure ffmpeg build + + #make configure + +This will bring up a menu. Scroll down using arrow keys to "LAME" and hit the spacebar to enable it. Press enter to continue. +The ffmpeg source files will automatically be downloaded then you will be presented with an additional prompt to install documentation. I uncheck with spacebar then press enter to continue. + +Commence build and installation of ffmpeg + + make install clean + +Building ffmpeg will take some time depending on the capabilities of your machine, please be patient. + +Link ffmpeg to where Libresonic expects the transcoder to be. + + cmd ln -s /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg /var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg + +Congratulations you have ffmpeg with mp3 support installed ready for Libresonic to use.
