Looks like something is already on port 6600. Are you sure MPD isn't already running?

sure ,this is my mpd first run and it doesnt work cause the"failed listen"thing.

In that case, try specifying a different port to listen on in the config file.

You should take a look and see what is listening @ 6600. Run the following as root:
netstat -lnptu
You can post the output here if you wish.

How about a:
killall mpd
? If it wasn't running already then it will let you know.

Hi All-
Thanks to japetto and Samc for posting a reply to this question and solving my problem, which was that the mpd daemon was already running on 6600. So I killed it, then ran #mpd --create-db *worked like a charm*
