| |

| |
− | * rename the folder "jinzora2" to the new name "html"
| |
− | mv jinzora2 html
| |
− |
| |

| |
− | cd /var/hda/web-apps/jinzora/html
| |
− | * Your web server needs write permissions to some of the Jinzora files. To write log files and cached pages for example. We've created a script called 'configure.sh' that sets the required permissions. First, the script needs to be made executable:
| |
− | chmod 744 configure.sh
| |
− | * Run the script to set permissions:
| |
− | sh ./configure.sh
| |
− |
| |
− | * Create a database for jinzora to use
| |
− | hda-create-db-and-user jinzora2
| |
− | (database name=jinzora2, username=jinzora2 and password=jinzora2)
| |
− |
| |
− | At this point your basic app configuration should be up and running.
| |
− |
| |
− | Launch Jinzora and follow the instructions.
| |
− | * Use a browser and go to http://jinzora/
| |
− | * Now you can setup jinzora
| |

| |
− | (at the end you will have to remove the install directory at some point):
| |
− | rm -rf /var/hda/web-apps/jinzora/html/install

Jinzora is a web based media streaming and management system, written in PHP.
"One-click" Jinzora Installer
The default administrator in the "One-click" install of Jinzora2 on Amahi is
login: admin
password: admin
The One-click installer is configured to have the music library stored in the share called "music."
Jinzora looks for a very specific structure whe looks for media. It expects to find a folder structure like this inside the music folder:
- Level 1: Genre
- Level 2: Artist
- Level 3: Album
- Level 4: sound tracks
If it does then Jinzora does a great job organizing the collection.
To scan your library into Jinzora:
- login as the user "admin"
- click the "Admin Tools" icon - in the little window at the top left of the screen
- in the pop-up window click "Media Management"
- click "Rescan media"
- select the options you prefer (All sub-items for me) and click the "Scan Now" button
To change the location where jinzora searches for audio files:
- Admin tools> system tools> settings manager> main settings> media_dirs
Point the “media_dirs” to the location where your audio files resides and then re-run the “Rescan media” function.
