[SOLVED] MPD won't work on system startup

I have just installed and configured mpd today, and it works fine if I start it up manually using "/etc/rc.d/mpd start", however, it fails to start up automatically when I put it in the daemons list in my rc.conf. I have full rights to the ~/.mpd/ directory (since it's in my home folder) and the Music directory. My music database built fine, and everything works fine if I start it up manually. I don't get why it fails to start on system boot.
Here's my daemons list:
DAEMONS=(@syslog-ng @network !netfs @crond @alsa @hal @fam @mpd)
Here's my /etc/mpd.conf:
music_directory "/home/joey/Music"
playlist_directory "/home/joey/.mpd/playlists"
db_file "/home/joey/.mpd/db"
log_file "/home/joey/.mpd/log"
error_file "/home/joey/.mpd/error"
pid_file "/home/joey/.mpd/pid"
state_file "/home/joey/.mpd/mpdstate"
user "joey"
bind_to_address "localhost"
port "6600"
audio_output {
type "alsa"
name "My ALSA Device"

Hmm. I believe I found the problem. I removed the @ in front of all the daemons to let them start up in order instead of in the background, and everything starts up perfect.
I wonder which daemon MPD relies on that's causing it to fail. Network maybe? Anyone have any ideas?

  • Won't work as a startup anymore.

    I have been running my Imac with Snow Leopard on an external Lacie disk and backing it up on another disk with Time Machine. Today the power went out for a couple of minutes and my computer will no longer allow me to select it as a startup disk. Fortunately I had another hard drive which will work as a startup but how can I access the Mail, Time Machine and the items on the desktop from the now unhappy operating system?

    Meherally wrote:
    Are you saying that the Lacie mounts but it cannot be selected as startup? if that is the case, would suggest use Diskwarrior on it and perhaps you will get it back as old.
    Yes it mounts and shows up in startup Disk in System Preferences but is faded and won't let me select it.
    I've am not familiar with Diskwarrior but see I have Techtool Pro 5 which I have never used - would it do anything usefull?
    Also, if you have a time machine back up on another disk then you can easily restore everything from the TM back up on the new disk you are using, think I am missing something here.
    I went to Time machine and was able to move documents to the hard drive I am now using but when I tried moving the system folder and put in my password it said it couldn't restore the system folder because there was already a system folder there. (But I am not restoring it to the Hard drive that is actually running the computer now.)
    What I really want is my email and the desktop documents on my screwed-up OS. Where can I find these in Time Machine?

  • IPhoto and Apple ID won't work after system update

    I've recently updated my MacBook Air to OS X v10.9.4.  iPhoto won't work as i am currently using v9.2.  I've tried downloading a later version but have been advised that my Apple ID will not work on this computer.  NB.  I have an iPhone but have not used the Apple ID on this - to my knowledge, or another Apple ID on my system.  I'm a basic level user so any advice on this would be great.
    Many thanks,

  • [Solved] Startx won't work! Laptop issues.

    Okay, here is what Ididin as much detail as possible.
    Dual boot: Windws XP + Archlinux
    the partition is like this
    80 GB XP
    80 GB arch
         *10 GB root
         *70 GB /home
    Video Card: nVidia Geforce Go 6100
    Okay, so after I installed, I decided to and uncomment all available US repositories with HTTP on them, not FTP. Then I did a full system update, and got the latest nvidia drivers. So I run nvidia-xconfig,  got a little confused when it didn't work and I noticed /etc/X11/xorg.conf was missing. After a while I realized I forgot to download Xorg, once I ran the command it worked. I downloaded HAL, started it and it worked. Then I ran startx, and it wouldn't work. I went into the IRC channel, and tried showed all the errors I got, after a while I was told I shouldn't be using root under any circumstances and the first thing I should have done is create my user ID, which I did, then made myself a Sudoer. Obviously, the errors still appeared, no matter what I did with Xorg. -.-

    Yep carol.
    Nope I didn't install freetype.
    Also, I noticed whenever I try to install nvidia I get an error that says these files already exist, and that there is a: Errors occured. No packages were upgraded. In a list of a bunch of files I can't even really list out at the moment.
    Pacman -S nvidia gets me that error, when I tried reinstalling xorg, it worked fine. Even when I deleted the cache, and uninstalled files it had the same issue.
    I was told to install the latest version available though (again). since I installed some version I got back in 2008 in December. But I've been too hesitant since I felt I might need one of those extra CDs later. So I figured out how to do it through USB, not sure if I should just yet though.
    And sorry, didn't notice that long error the last time I thought it meant it was already installed.
    But I did do a full system update at least though.

  • [SOLVED] Network won't work after install

    Hi
    I've installed arch on a lot of different computers without any trouble. But now I'm trying to install it on a intel mini-ITX board with an atom processor and integrated network.

  • [Solved] cpufreq won't work... wrong or unhandled cpu

    I have installed Arch 86_64 on my HP Notebook DV6 2120ED with a AMD Turion II M520 2,3Ghz CPU, but it will not do frequency scaling.
    I use my laptop on the go and it's not needed for it to run at 2,3ghz all the time.
    I installed cpufrequtils pmutils acpi libacpi.
    i set the rights in
    i edited /etc/conf.d/cpufreq so that i now looks like this:
    #configuration for cpufreq control
    # valid governors:
    # ondemand, performance, powersave,
    # conservative, userspace
    governor="ondemand"
    # limit frequency range (optional)
    # valid suffixes: Hz, kHz (default), MHz, GHz, THz
    min_freq="1.10GHz"
    max_freq="2.3GHz"
    # use freq to set up the exact cpu frequency using it with userspace governor
    #freq=
    I did a "modprobe cpufreq_ondemand" and it gives me no errors, this is the same for performance, powersave, userspace aswell.
    however when i try to "sudo /etc/rc.d/cpufreq start" it gives me this error:
    grep: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors: No such file or directory
    , cpu 0wrong, unknown or unhandled CPU?
    Error setting new values. Common errors:
    - Do you have proper administration rights? (super-user?)
    - Is the governor you requested available and modprobed?
    - Trying to set an invalid policy?
    - Trying to set a specific frequency, but userspace governor is not available,
    for example because of hardware which cannot be set to a specific frequency
    or because the userspace governor isn't loaded?

    current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 2.30 GHz.
    The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use
    within this range.
    current CPU frequency is 2.30 GHz (asserted by call to hardware).
    Under ubuntu it works just fine so the processor supports it, what am i doing wrong here ? anyone got any suggestion ?

    i seems to have gotten it to frequency scale... but it is not working correctly yet.
    I was starting acpi_cpufreq as the driver when should have been using powernow-k8 so now it scales...
    I used the command
    echo "95" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold
    Edit:
    It turns out that the ondemand option it very unstable, i now use conservative and this seems fine for now.
    So this problem has been solved !!

  • [SOLVED] Cantata won't work

    Hi!
    Whenever i start cantata (qt5 community build, version 1.4.0-1), i get an error :
    errno: Failed to open database file "/tmp/cantata/mpd/tag_cache": No such file or directory
    fatal_error: Couldn't stat parent directory of db file "/tmp/cantata/mpd/tag_cache": No such file or directory
    It started only the very first timewithout problems, and i could listen to any song. But then, after a reboot, it didn't work anymore. The only way to get it working again is by touching that tag_cache file in /tmp/cantata/mpd/ (making the mpd dir first, as it doesn't exist in /tmp/cantata).
    What can I do? I'm using cantata in single user mode (ie it starts mpd for me).
    Thanks!

  • [SOLVED]NetworkManager won't work since updating to KDE 4.3.4

    Hello there,
    I'm running Arch64 on Qosmio X300 notebook. I have just updated to KDE 4.3.4 and since the update the NetworkManager won't connect to my wifi (I haven't tried wired yet). I use following packages for NetworkManager and KNetworkManager applet
    kdeplasma-applets-networkmanager 1047027-1
    networkmanager 0.7.2-1
    There seems to be nothing strange in the daemons.log, but the KNMgr tray icon keeps saying "Networking information not available" and when I click it I get "Network Management Disabled" instead of the usual menu. I still can configure network manually and wicd is also working fine.
    I remember putting my notebook to suspend-to-disk by mistake instead of shutting it down right after the update, so that's when it might have gone crazy. I tried reinstalling NetworkManager and the KDE applet and googling around a bit, but nothing has helped so far...

  • Slideshow screensaver won't work/locks system

It won't show the option to use subfolders to make a screensaver slideshow like it did before I updated from Snow Leopard.

  • [SOLVED] Plymouth won't work anymore

    Hi, I don't know id this is the correct category but well, Here we go:
    I'm having an issue with Plymouth since a couple of days: It does not work at all.
    It does not show up neither at startup nor at shutdown, the only thing on screen is text detailing the startup or shutdown process. Even when I try to test it doing this:
    plymouthd
    plymouth --show-splash
    Nothing happens.
    This started to happen a couple days ago, after I reinstalled my kernel with the Arch iso because of this issue
    I don't know how could this affect Plymouth, but now it doesn't work at all.
    Heres my /etc/mkinitcpio.conf file
    My /etc/default/grub
    I obviusly tried to rebuild the initrd using
    sudo mkinitcpio -p linux
    To see if that could resolve my problem but it didn't.
    I even downgraded to the previous kernel to see if it's was some kind of kernel-related issue but that didn't work too so I reinstalled the latest kernel 3.15.2-1-ARCH.
    I've even tried reinstalling plymouth just to see it was useless because the issue is still there.
    Any light on this will be well appreciated.
    Thanks in advance, Shadow_Reaper13

    While the issue seems to be slightly different, the problem is the same: The splash screen does not show up.
    I hope this help out troubleshooting the problem. I will search a bit more to see if there is something else I can try. I will also try again the fsck to see if this solves anything.

  • [SOLVED]Xorg won't work for my non root user

    I installed Arch Linux 2009.08 x86_64 Core inside Sun VirtualBox 3.0.8 and got up to the part of the Beginners' Guide that tells me to test X and it can never work for my non root user. Funny thing is, I tried running it as root and it worked even though my root user has no ~/.xinitrc file. Running startx or xinitrc as my non root user I get a small (maybe 400x600) white terminal but can't use my mouse or keyboard.
    After looking over the guide and doing a step I forgot and adding in all of the extra stuff the guide says might help I can use my mouse and keyboard in my non root users' small white terminal but X still won't start properly with xterm even though I put 'exec exterm' in my non root users' ~/.xinitrc file. Please help. Thanks for any help guys.

    I don't get it .. this sounds like xterm is starting up successfully (xterm is a small white terminal). Easiest way to get X up and running (imo) is
    sudo pacman -S gnome gdm xorg xf86-input-evdev
    sudo /etc/rc.d/hal start
    sudo /etc/rc.d/gdm start
    I didn't know that's what xterm was, thanks for telling me. Noob mistake.

  • [Solved] MPD won't play when started via systemd

    When I try to play from mpd (after starting it from systemd with "systemctl start mpd"), nothing happens. In ncmpcpp, when I press play, it quickly shows play and then immediately goes to "paused". When I start MPD normally from the command line (just by running "mpd"), it works fine, but for some reason, some conflict is being caused by systemd.
    Is there anywhere I should start to look? I don't really know how to troubleshoot it, as I don't know how to make it log without running it from the command line.
    EDIT: I set up systemd --user and wrote a service for it. It seems that mpd was running as root and caused some permissions issues.

    When starting "normally", do you also start mpd as root (since there is no "--user" in your systemctl call)?
    I just checked and it is running as root, however, when I do
    systemctl --user enable mpd
    I get:

  • [SOLVED] Netbeans won't work

    Hi,

    Using yaourt, everything seems to work until I try to launch it : the command 'netbeans' does nothing (and there is no error).

  • [SOLVED] Wine won't work

    I honestly don't know what piece of information could be of use to you, so I will include all of the available ones in hope that some of them are worth mentioning.
    Me against the wiki page:
    WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/win32 winecfg returned a:
    wine: created the configuration directory '/root/win32'
    err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"winemp3.acm": libmpg123.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented.
    err:mscoree:LoadLibraryShim error reading registry key for installroot
    err:mscoree:LoadLibraryShim error reading registry key for installroot
    err:mscoree:LoadLibraryShim error reading registry key for installroot
    err:mscoree:LoadLibraryShim error reading registry key for installroot

    err:mscoree:LoadLibraryShim error reading registry key for installroot
    fixme:iphlpapi:NotifyAddrChange (Handle 0xfde8ec, overlapped 0xfde8d0): stub
    wine: configuration in '/root/win32' has been updated.
    err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"winemp3.acm": libmpg123.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    And, WINEARCH=win32, gave me this:
    WINEARCH set to win32 but '/root/.wine' is a 64-bit installation.
    Also, I have winetricks installed but a WINEARCH=win32 winetricks only returns this:
    wine cmd.exe /c echo '%ProgramFiles%' returned empty string.
    Finally, whenever I try to install a game, wine itself immediately gives up:
    err:menubuilder:init_xdg error looking up the desktop directory
    err:module:import_dll Library binkw32.dll (which is needed by L"Z:\\home\\av\\Silent_Hill\\sh2pc.exe") not found
    err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\home\\av\\Silent_Hill\\sh2pc.exe" failed, status c0000135
    I looked around for a while but only got more confused.
    If you have any suggestions, please go ahead..

    I just stumbled across your thread, I'll see if i can help, as i do see problems at first glance with your install.
    You didn't say whether or not you are running Archlinux 64-bit, but it would appear that you are. (you can correct me if i am wrong).
    wine: created the configuration directory '/root/win32'
    wine: configuration in '/root/win32' has been updated.
    WINEARCH set to win32 but '/root/.wine' is a 64-bit installation.
    why are you creating a wine prefix for root? Wine is meant to be run as a normal user, in fact - it is an important detail in Wine's FAQ;
    http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#run_as_root
    Never run Wine as your root user.
    As a normal user Wine will create it's prefixes in your home folder <ie: /home/USERNAME/.wine  (or .whatever-name-you-choose)>
    odeerr:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"winemp3.acm": libmpg123.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory[
    err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"winemp3.acm": libmpg123.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    it can't find libmpg123.so - do you have mpg123 installed? I believe this is an optional dependency for wine, so you might need to install it.
    WINEARCH set to win32 but '/root/.wine' is a 64-bit installation.
    I had this problem not too long ago. I couldn't find a way to change the prefix from 64bit to 32bit. I ended up having to delete my prefix and start a new one.
    The rest of your information, i don't really need to comment on, as they play into the above listed problems.
    Steps to fix (hopefully).
    1. remove your existing wine prefix' (both your /root/.wine && /root/win32)
    2. now, make sure you have mpg123 installed (and/or any other optional dependencies for wine installed). You can took at what you may want/need here;
    https://www.archlinux.org/packages/mult … 6_64/wine/
    3. As your normal user (and not root), open a terminal and create your new wine prefix
    it should be something like /home/username/.wine (as i pointed out above)
    If you still bump into any errors about libs missing / cannot find shared object errors, than you probably don't have them installed. With multilib-wine (aka: wine on a 64bit system) remember that you will have to have the lib32- versions of optional dependencies installed, as well.
    I think if you go through these steps, you should be able to fix the issues and wine should work.
