    I’m assuming this is user error, but I still can’t get it up and running. I try to restart mt-daapd after changing the mp3_dir and I get:

    server:/home/robby# /etc/init.d/mt-daapd restart
    
Restarting mt-daapd: mt-daapd: client.c:776: avahi_client_errno: Assertion `client' failed.
    
/etc/init.d/mt-daapd: line 27:  4963 Aborted                 start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS

    Ideas?

    Thanks for your help,
    Robert

    Avahi isn’t running.

    A nicer error message would be good, but that’s the problem. 🙂 Edit your /etc/default/avahi-server (?) and flip the setting to make it start at boot.

    I get the same error, while avahi daemon is running:

    [~]$ sudo service mt-daapd start
    
Starting DAAP servermt-daapd: client.c:776: avahi_client_errno: Assertion `client' failed.
    
/bin/bash: line 1:  5290 Aborted                 /usr/sbin/mt-daapd
    
[FAILED]
    
[~]$ sudo service avahi-daemon status
    
Avahi daemon is running

    But then, I do get errors if I try to restart avahi:

    [tim@servy ~]$ sudo service avahi-daemon restart
    
Shutting down Avahi daemon:                                [  OK  ]
    
Starting Avahi daemon...                                   [FAILED]

    /var/log/messages indicates something about what happened:


    
avahi-daemon[5423]: Found user 'avahi' (UID 498) and group 'avahi' (GID 494).

avahi-daemon[5423]: WARNING: Failed to contact D-Bus daemon.

    But I’m not sure how to proceed. SELinux has been in permissive mode the whole time and I thought that would be enough. Any ideas?

    BTW, Mt-daapd runs fine from command line (with or without -f option), but when I start as a service I always get the avahi error and mt-daapd aborts.

    Mt-daapd used to daemonize just fine but I recently upgraded from Fedora Core 8 to FC10. I haven’t been using the daapd server for a while, and it turned out I had a corrupt db. I just ran mt-daapd from command line with max logging -d 9 and watched it rebuild the db, then successfully tested the web server and connection/streaming from an iTunes client. Now I just need to get it to start as a service again…

    Any ideas? Thanks!
