[SOLVED] mpdscribble not working

tridus · 2014-10-27 01:56:35

I just found out that mpdscribble hasn't been working since 3 weeks ago.

The systemd service is active, it's just not doing what's it's supposed to be doing.

I'm using the standard mpdscribble package from AUR and I'm scrobbling to Libre.fm.

I haven't changed anything, it just stopped working. The last update for the mpdscribble package was before the problem, so that's not it.

Working fine here. What does `systemctl status` show?

Is anything in the cache of the log?

`systemctl --user status mpdscribble.service`:

In the log the first day of the problem I get entries like these:

2014-09-30T09:21:31-0600 [libre.fm] handshake failed, clock not synchronized    (BADTIME)
2014-09-30T09:21:31-0600 [libre.fm] waiting 60 seconds before trying again

2014-09-30T09:22:32-0600 [libre.fm] handshake failed, clock not synchronized    (BADTIME)

And from then on, saving songs to journal, increasing waiting time, 'handshake failed, clock not synchronized, BADTIME'.

Is your clock out?

tridus · 2014-10-27 04:16:00

Clock is working fine.

jasonwryan · 2014-10-27 04:24:45

How do you keep time? NTP? Because that error message is pretty specific and previous people with the same problem resolved it by ensuring their clock was correctly synced...

tridus · 2014-10-27 04:37:48

I just installed the system and then forgot about the clock. I guess I will have to check the wiki again about this topic.

tridus · 2014-10-27 05:39:15

I think I remember... As in my timezone (Tegucigalpa) there is no Daylight Saving Time, when I installed the system I figured I could leave it as it was. No need of fancy syncing. I guess I was wrong. Maybe it got a little bit out of sync.

jasonwryan · 2014-10-27 06:13:14

There are enough other services that depend upon an accurate clock to make it a necessity.
