FPCALC Error When Renaming Music

Posted: 15 Feb 2013, 13:11

I've searched the forums but couldn't find anything similar. I have updated to v3.4 (1467) for OS X. I am currently running OS X 10.8. I add a music file to the "Original Files" box, click Match, and then select AcoustID. That is when I get an error saying "IOException: Failed to exec fpcalc: Cannot run program "fpcalc": error=2, No such file or directory" Not sure what I am missing to make this work? Any ideas?

FileBot is using 'fpcalc' to calculate the AcoustID fingerprint. It'll need to be able to execute this program:
$APP_PACKAGE/Contents/Resources/Java/fpcalc

Maybe this is a new OS X 10.8 issue because of the new 'security' restrictions?

The chromaprint tools can also be found here. Maybe by installing that and symlinking to /usr/bin/fpcalc you can help FileBot access that cmdline tool:

So instead of symlinking, I simply used an alias. I placed fpcalc in /usr/bin and then placed an alias in /Applications/FileBot/Contents/Resources/Java/ This seems to have done the trick. Thanks!

Hi I am getting the same error. Could you help explain to me how exactly you place the fpcalc in /usr/bin? I don't really know how to do that...

Could you check the fpcalc executable? Are permissions esp. the execute flag set properly?

Code: Select all

$APP_PACKAGE/Contents/Resources/Java/fpcalc

At the risk of sounding like a beginner (because I am)...how can I check if they are set properly? I located the fpcalc in the directory you guided me to; what do I do to check the execute flag is set properly?

Open Terminal. cd into that folder. Use ls -l and check what flags are set. Actually Finder should use Terminal icon for exectuable files I think.

btw what archive program did you use to unpack the .app.tar.gz package you downloaded?

Okay I think I ran the flag check correctly...this is what I got back:

Code: Select all

Joses-iMac:FileBot.app josearivera$ ls -l
total 0
drwxr-xr-x@ 6 josearivera  staff  204 Feb 12 03:13 Contents
I don't know if this is what you were actually asking me to find...I'm very new to the command line...

Also I used the default Mac Archive Utility to unzip the Chromaprint.tar.gz package.

Well, almost, I'll need you to show me the ls -l output of FileBot.app/Contents/Resources/Java/

Code: Select all

cd Contents/Resources/Java
ls -l

Well, that loosk good. I guess for some reason it can't find the fpcalc even though it should be able to. No way to figure this out without actually playing with it on a Mac, which I don't have.

Just do what the OP did. Put the chromaprint tools anywhere and then link fpcalc into /usr/bin

Code: Select all

ln -s /path/to/fpcalc /usr/bin/fpcalc

So here is what I did:

Joses-iMac:FileBot.app josearivera$ ln -s /path/to/fpcalc /usr/bin/fpcalc
ln: /usr/bin/fpcalc: Permission denied

What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your patience in helping a beginner like me by the way.

I am getting the same error message concerning fpcalc using W7 64-bit. I have tried the 64bit install, the x86 install and the java web start via Chrome, all with the same result.

Check the install folder and make sure there's fpcalc.exe in there. Make sure that the installer successfully added the filebot install folder to the PATH environment variable. Open cmdline and try fpcalc and see if it works.

Fpcalc.exe is in the c:\program files\filebot folder. Using cmdline, it appears to run but the window flashes on and off so fast I can't see what it says. As for "Make sure that the installer successfully added the filebot install folder to the PATH environment variable" - I need instructions to do that.

I just noticed my error is message is slightly different than the original post. Mine is IOException: Failed to exec fpcalc: Cannot run program "fpcalc": Create

if it helps, I found this window running in the background-

I donno, seem to indicate issues with the Windows UAC:
http://windows-exe-errors.com/windows-e ... elevation/

Couldn't care less why as it works on my Win 7. I guess you could just turn off UAC or run filebot as admin, or find some way other way to give filebot permissions to execute fpcalc.

Same issue here, I get the following error on all and any files in WAV format:
IOexception: Failed to excec fpcalc: Exit code 2

Not when processing .mp3 files though, some incompatibility or what? :)

Checked the fpcalc docs and doesn't say anything special about .wav files not being supported.

You can check the docs and mailing lists on AcoustID yourself:
http://acoustid.org/chromaprint

You can always send over a donation to get in touch with Lukas and have im check your .wav files what the problem might be.

Are you using the .app package? Inside is there an executable .app/**/Java/fpcalc?

It should be packaged and work out of the box. But if it doesn't you just have to install chromaprint-tools (has to be in the PATH). Same solution as above.

Can you try the latest APP package and see if it works out of the box?
