I can’t connect to my mt-daapd server with itunes I show it but when I am about to connect it tells me an error -3260 and another port that I configured in the mt-daapd.conf.
I’m getting a similar error message…:
The shared music library “Lunar” is not accessible for an unknown reason. (-3260)
Check that any firewall software running on either the shared computer or this computer has been set to allow communication on port 26894.
I’ve looked in the log file and there don’t seem to be any problems. One thing I do notice is that there are two processes running…
281 p1 S 0:00.00 /usr/local/sbin/mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd/mt-daapd.conf
282 p1 S 0:01.56 /usr/local/sbin/mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd/mt-daapd.confI don’t know if this is supposed to happen. As it stands I’m trying to access on the local machine and network, so I haven’t been using an SSH tunnel (do I need to?). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Not to be completely flippant, but the usual cause of this is that your firewall hasn’t been set to allow communication on the port you selected. 🙂
Have you checked that? What operating system are you running the server on?

282 p1 S 0:01.56 /usr/local/sbin/mt-daapd -c /etc/mt-daapd/mt-daapd.confThat’s normal. One is the mdns responder, the other is the server itself.

Nope. Should just work. You will need to allow access through the firewall, though, and how you do that is os dependent. On osx, you do it through the “sharing” preference pane, in windows, through control panel -> firewall. Best first test is to turn off the firewall and see if that works. If so, then you know that’s the problem, and can work on configuring the firewall to allow access.
I’m using a hackintosh (os x). I have the firewall set to off for testing purposes (yeah, I checked that first, jeeze, so flippant :D). Thanks for replying!

Okay. The other possibility is that it is just taking some time to start up (large library, etc).
One way you can test that would be to change the music directory in the preference panel to a directory that has no music.
Then start the server. Shouldn’t take long before it appears. Once you have that, try and connect. See what that does.
Whether you can or not, another thing to try would be to launch the configuration web page from the button on the prefs panel. From there, go into configuration and view the “advanced config”, then set the log level to 5.
Stop the server, point it back at your original music directory, and start it again. Now you should be able to watch what it is doing in the “log” tab of the preference panel. That might help some.

here’s my config file, I think I have it set up right too…:

Yeah, that does look good. Might be worth getting the mac specific package from nightlies.mt-daapd.org. That has the graphics whatsits and stuff. Might work better, although what you have should sure work.
I would have thought that the only way that it wouldn’t work (and wouldn’t generate a log message) would be if you were firewalled. Can you telnet or http to port 3689?
Didn’t even know about the cool graphical version. It works! Yay, thanks for all the help. Peace,
