I have just updated my wiki from 1.34 to 1.35. I have everything working except Lilypond. When adding a <nowiki><score></nowiki> element to a page I am seeing this error:

Unable to obtain LilyPond version:

Warning: an existing sandbox was detected. /usr/bin/lilypond --version  will run without any additional sandboxing features in a /bin/sh shell
GNU LilyPond 2.18.2

Here is my configuration:

wfLoadExtension( 'Score' );

$wgScoreTrim = true;

$wgShellRestrictionMethod = 'firejail';

$wgScoreLilyPond = "/usr/bin/lilypond";

$wgScoreAbc2Ly = '/usr/bin/abc2ly';

$wgScoreFluidsynth = '/usr/bin/fluidsynth';

$wgScoreSoundfont = '/usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2';

$wgScoreTimidity = '/usr/bin/timidity';

$wgScoreLame = '/usr/bin/lame';

since it is saying something about sandboxing, what happens if you comment out $wgShellRestrictionMethod?

I tried that but to no avail, same error message. I wonder if it has anything to do with Lilypond being generally disabled?

Problem solved

I can add a title when using ABC notation, but I can't add it when using LilyPond. How can I add a title when using LilyPond?

Examples:

---

ABC notation:

---

LilyPond:

See the example at :en:Help:Score#Adding_lyrics

Problem solved. Thanks!

May I ask how it was solved? If I try adding a "\header { Die Moldau }" to your example here it doesn't work?

With a header:

Musical scores are temporarily disabled.

Without a header:

Musical scores are temporarily disabled.

(Actually scores are now all showing as disabled?)

Musical scores are temporarily disabled.

The Lilypond extension has been disabled for several months now. Judging by the lack of activity at phab:T257066, I wouldn't expect it to return any time soon.

Following some investigation at en:Category talk:Pages using deprecated score attributes, it seems that adding override_audio= or override_midi= will cause the containing page to be added to Category:Pages using deprecated score attributes. Why? Can that behaviour be stopped?

This was mentioned in Project:Tech News/2019#Tech News: 2019-25

The TimedMediaHandler extension now handles MIDI files, so that putting a wikilink like [[File:somefile.mid]] creates a player. Eventually (phab:T135597) Extension:Score will lose its redundant code, hence the deprecation. I added an explanation of why these attributes are deprecated to this page and how to fix. I haven't added this yet to en:Help:Score.

The behavior won't be exactly the same (e.g. the better MIDI file won't be shown when you click on the score). I wonder why pages override the generated MIDI and audio; their generation has improved.

The generation of MIDI files may have improved, but I think the override is mostly done with .ogg files. These could be sound files from actual performances, or from MIDI files that editors have created in their own environment with Soundfonts or similar which most likely generates better sound than this extension. Then there are cases where LilyPond doesn't produce certain ornaments at all.

The non-deprecated override method mentioned overleaf, "Deprecated, instead you can add a [[File:name.oga]] wikilink after the score tag." doesn't seem to work; see en:Help talk:Score#Obsolete and deprecated score attributes, including override_midi, override_audio, override_ogg.

Sorry, I should have said "after the closing </source> tag." I also responded on that en-wiki talk page.

I am getting no sound the extension creates the files but doesn't convert to audio. I am not getting any errors or sound.

slight correction its ready to play, it would seem fluid synth isn't doing its job and when i comment it out it breaks with no fall back. since i configured lame the files are mp3 now rather than ogg but that shouldn't be a problem.

The error is:

'c:\LilyPond\usr\bin\lilypond.exe" "--version' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file.

There is a layout issue in this extension, causing the scale to by under the text. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T216305 for examples

download lilypond executable .exe but when adding the path of that file in localsentigs.php when loading the site everything was fine but when I inserted it <score lang = "ABC">

X: 1

M: C

L: 1/4

K: C

C, D, E, F, | G, A, B, C | D E F G | A B c d |

e f g a | b c 'd' e '| f' g 'a' b '|]

</ score>

and save the changes shows me this error

LilyPond failed to run: /$IP/images/lilypond/lilypond-2.19.82-1.mingw.exe is not an executable file. Make sure $ wgScoreLilyPond is set correctly.

You probably have

$wgScoreLilyPond = '$IP/images/lilypond/lilypond-2.19.82-1.mingw.exe';

when you should have

$wgScoreLilyPond = "$IP/images/lilypond/lilypond-2.19.82-1.mingw.exe";

(Note the quotes.)

I would not put the binary in my images directory, either.

It still does not work, I put it with "and the executable file I put it in a lilypond folder inside the extension score but it still does not work.

What is the error message now?

the same as above

If it is still failing with LilyPond failed to run: /$IP/images/lilypond/lilypond-2.19.82-1.mingw.exe is not an executable file, then could you copy the line here that you are using for $wgScoreLilyPond?

$wgScoreLilyPond = $IP/extensions/Score/lilypond/lilypond-2.18.82-1.mingw.exe

You need to use quotes:

 $wgScoreLilyPond = "$IP/extensions/Score/lilypond/lilypond-2.18.82-1.mingw.exe"

I tried it like that but I still got that error:

LilyPond could not be executed: /home/surtico/public_html/laramaazul/wiki/extensions/Score/lilypond/lilypond-2.18.82-1.mingw.exe is not an executable file. Make sure that $ wgScoreLilyPond is aesthetically defined correctly.

You are using the Windows version on a Linux host. You will need the Linux version.

Hi, when I test the example <score>\relative c' { f d f a d f e d cis a cis e a g f e }</score> , got this error:

I can't solve it. Could you give me some help?

My wiki need to use this great extension.

Hi JoesSR,

<score vorbis="1" lang="lilypond">\relative c' { c d e f g a b} </score>

Resultado aqui:

Had the same issue. I think it's due to a bug with Lilypond 2.18 (the one still advertised at lilypond.org) but that has been fixed on a more recent version. In the end the commands I used to install the latest Lilypond were:

curl -o lilypond.sh http://download.linuxaudio.org/lilypond/binaries/linux-64/lilypond-2.19.52-1.linux-64.sh
sh lilypond.sh

I have a very similar problem, I am using Ubuntu 18.10 and Lilypond 2.19.82

Has anyone an idea? Thanks for help

I can add a title when using ABC notation, but I cat add it when using LilyPond, How can I solve this problem when using LilyPond?



Examples:



ABC notation:

Unable to convert ABC file to LilyPond format:

/usr/bin/abc2ly from LilyPond 2.18.2
Parsing `.../file.abc'...
Line ... .../file.abc: 6: Huh?  Don't understand



LilyPond:



ABC notation:



At this moment, <score>...</score> is completely broken – it doesn't render anything, instead it displays the source code.
