Slimserver Problem

Ive installed slimserver from the extra repo and when i try to start the daemon i get this:

:: Starting SlimServer                                                   [BUSY] perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
        LANGUAGE = (unset),
        LC_ALL = (unset),
        LC_COLLATE = "C",
        LANG = "en_US.utf8"
    are supported and installed on your system.
perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C").
Useless use of a constant in void context at /home/slimserver/Slim/Networking/Slimproto.pm line 99.
                                                                         [DONE]

The server isnt running, and when i try to restart/stop it, it fails (because its not running, i think)

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Re: Slimserver Problem

What locale are you using?  Either of the following commands should show you

grep LOCALE /etc/rc.conf
locale

If it's set incorrectly, fix it (/etc/rc.conf) and run

locale-gen

Then try restarting slimserver and post your results.

Re: Slimserver Problem

That doesnt appear to have done anything, the locale was already set and locale-gen hasnt changed anything.

Looking at "/home/slimserver/Slim/Networking/Slimproto.pm" line 99 appears to be this:

        eval { Socket::IPPROTO_TCP() };

when commented out it gets rid of that error, but i cant then find it on any ports etc...... i cant find any documentation for slimserver anywhere
