Hi,
first of all - this was reported to us by a WL500g user - there was a problem with automatic database creation. It's difficult for me to debug this, because I do not own a WL500g so I can not test it myself; if you have this problem (that would happen on startup, you would get some error message from sqlite and then the server would terminate) - create the databse manually.
This is quite easy to do, you just need the sqlite version 3 command line client, then enter the following:
cat /opt/share/mediatomb/sqlite3.sql | sqlite3 mediatomb.db
This will create the database, copy the database file into your ~/.mediatomb/ or make sure that the ~/.mediatomb/config.xml file points to the correct database location. I just realized that I forgot to put that into the documentation...
Alternatively, you can enter a fixed port in the config.xml, simply put <port>50000</port> in the server section - after the launch of the server you will be able to connect to the UI via http://your-router-ip:50000/
Upon server startup the link to the UI is also printed in the console.
Let me know how it went :) If you get stuck you can visit us on IRC: #mediatomb on chat.freenode.net for realtime support.
Greetings,
Jin
P.S. if you use a DSM-320 or similar D-Link renderer you may need some special options in your config.xml, just check the docs :>
