Prepare your profile with a normal kodi , and then use this profile with the headless flavour.

RE: Headless Kodi - acandido - 2015-07-04

For those looking to build on master, I forked sparklyballs' docker repo and modified the 5071.patch to apply to the latest kodi 16 master (Line 282 needed modification due to a recent change in GUIDialog.cpp).

Haven't built for docker but the 5071.patch applies to master and I built headless successfully to run on my server with videodb version 94.

Sparklyballs' repo has the patch that will work on 15:

https://github.com/sparklyballs/docker-containers/tree/master/headless-kodi-isengard

that patch doesn't seem to work, the patch fails on /xbmc/guilib/GUIDialog.cpp

So i replaced code manually but then my build failed...

Am i doing this right? i build helix fine...

git clone https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc.git -b Isengard --depth=1 kodi
cd kodi
git apply --check 5071.patch
manually fix problem as mentioned above, remove that bit from the patch file
git apply 5071.patch
./bootstrap
./configure --prefix=/opt/kodi-server-isengard
make

UPDATE: trying "git reset --hard 9ff25f8" now, which commit should it be on? with this one i dont get conflicts when patching.

UPDATE2: same error

RE: Headless Kodi - fritsch - 2015-07-09

Use a C++11 compiler ... your issue is not related to the patch ... you cannot even build normal master.

RE: Headless Kodi - wsnipex - 2015-07-09

yep, same reason ubuntu precise PPA builds are broken, gcc is too old. You need at least gcc 4.7, better 4.8

OK Thanks, I will try it with new version of gcc, i foolishly assumed that since i could build helix i could build isengard (seems not, which makes sense) also it was late so thats my excuse Big Grin

I'm sure it will work once it's updated.

Thanks again.

Update : Forgot i have remote access, trying it now, seems to be working so far, thanks so much and i'm sure that was a silly mistake but thats how people learn Smile

RE: Headless Kodi - fma965 - 2015-07-09

Ok so i tried it again...

git clone...
git reset --hard 9ff25f8
git apply....
./bootstrap
./configure --prefix=/opt/kodi-server
make -j2
make install
/opt/kodi-server/lib/kodi/kodi.bin --headless -p


Unable to find path to Kodi data files!

RE: Headless Kodi - wsnipex - 2015-07-09

git clean -xfd, then try again

RE: Headless Kodi - xxxnelly - 2015-07-09

just revert to the commit for rc1 - "git reset --hard 9ff25f8" or manually patch the files, or create a new patch yourself, it's mostly the same just a few changes in 1 file.

RE: Headless Kodi - fma965 - 2015-07-12

I believe this is a working patch for RC2 atleast it worked for me...

Code:
git clone https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc.git -b Isengard --depth=1 kodi
cd kodi
git reset --hard 0aa930b (just to make sure is same commit)

RE: Headless Kodi - IncMrG - 2015-07-16

Hi to all,

first i have to say, i'm a really noob in compiling programs Sad
but i have to ask you: has anyone really running Kodi (Isengard) Headless running Huh

I tried all your hints without success No

With Helix the server is running with web-server, so i can see my media, but i can not stream them to my phone (Yatse as client)
When i try to stream a mp3 the server crashes.

With Isengard i get the web-server not started.

So, i wish to run Isengard (Headless) on my Ubuntu Server (15.04 / 64 Bit) to update the MySQL-Server and stream my media to my mobile device (Android)
Is it possible to give me a Noob-Ready step by step or better already compiled zip/deb?

Thanks a lot for your help and comprehension Blush

IncMrG
