[SOLVED]Can't start mpd

I tried today to setup mpd, so I could connect ncmcpp to it, but it seems that it fails everytime I try to "systemctl start mpd".

My config for mpd (/etc/mpd.conf)

My mpd.socket.

[Unit]
Description=Music Player Daemon Sockets

[Socket]
ListenStream=/var/run/mpd/socket
ListenStream=6600

[Install]
WantedBy=sockets.target

The error I get when typing systemctl start mpd:

I can see that mpd.service is my problem (I accidently put the same in it as in mpd.service), but I searched everywhere but I just don't understand what I have to enter in it.

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

I took a look at my own system and mpd provides at least the service file. Did you edit this file?
Is so, you can just reinstall mpd to get the correct file back. Do make a backup of your configs and other stuff, though.

Or, just do it yourself:

[Unit]
Description=Music Player Daemon
After=network.target sound.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/mpd --no-daemon

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

The file is /usr/lib/systemd/system/mpd.service

EDIT: Made a more helpfull comment with a solution.
EDIT2: Added the file for your convinience

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

mpd.service lacks ExecStart setting. Refusing.

This should be self explanatory. Without ExecStart entry nothing can be run.

man systemd.service # Read this for further explanation

And grep -v \# the config file next time to get only what actually is parsed as configuration.

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

Now my connection gets refused, what did I maybe do wrong?

Couldn't connect to MPD (host = localhost, port = 6600): Connection refused

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

This usually means that MPD is not running. As you start it by socket, you should connect to your socket. Otherwise MPD will not be started in the first place.

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

No errors/messages there? Check if MPD is indeed running. If not, check if nothing else is using port 6600 (this explains the not being able to connect)

If you can't find anything, please post the mpd log file.

Could I just change the port?

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

You can try that naturally. Just make sure nothing else is using that port.

this means that MPD is already running unless you have another daemon using that port

ps -ef | grep mpd

ps -ef | grep mpd:

root      8015  1707  0 21:05 pts/3    00:00:00 grep mpd

So it's not used, what's the issue then, there was nothing in the log file.

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

Could it be the fact that mpd is running as root? Try adding an user to your mpd.conf (I think mpd by default makes the mpd user).

Also: Nothing in the log file means nothing you thought was usefull or did it mean absolutely nothing in the log file?

Oh you're right I ran it as root, maybe that's the issue. THere is absolutley nothing in the log.

EDIT: I ran it as a normal user, still this didn't fix the issue, same error message.

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

systemctl status mpd.s{ervice,ocket} -l

Have you rebooted in the meantime? You need to systemctl daemon-reload after changing service files.

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

Okay, after I rebooted I got a new error message, this is most likey because I commented the database out, because he said that there was no such file or directory.

This is the error:

server_socket: bind to '0.0.0.0:6600' failed: Address already in use (continuing anyway, because binding to '[::]:6600' succeeded)
fatal_error: Failed to open sqlite database '/var/lib/mpd/mpd.stickers': unable to open database file

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

What does the above systemctl command output? Show your current mpd configuration:

grep -v ^\# mpd.configuration-file

By the way, the mpd.service file according to PKGBUILD for mpd package should have this instead for WantedBy:

WantedBy=default.target

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

The point is to filter the commented lines out, fix that. The sticker_file line is there, so mpd looks for it, comment it out. Still waiting for systemctl status results.

Re: [SOLVED]Can't start mpd

By the way, the mpd.service file according to PKGBUILD for mpd package should have this instead for WantedBy:

WantedBy=default.target

Is seems I have the wrong config file on my computer then. Strange, as I have never edited it.

Mugi, does the user you use have read/write permissions on the files you named in the config file? So, the files in /var/lib and /run/mpd? If not, try putting these files somewhere where the user has access (for example in /home/liam/.mpd).

Also, you might consider the local user setup instead of the global setup if you are going to use this as your music player instead of on a headless server.

I will try local configuration now.
