Hi. I am trying to get mt-daapd-0.3.0_pre1586 running on gentoo. Builds and installs ok. I have been through the conf file and changed things to suit the new version. Upon startup I get the following errors…

Version 0.24 worked fine.

Any ideas?

Looks like your run_as user doesn’t exist. Also, as a side note, it also appears that I didn’t realize getpwent doesn’t set errno on failure. D’oh.

Gotta love an error message like “Error: Success!” Mind bogglingly dumb.
