erm, your config file is deprecated.
Then your db_param is maybe even missing, or the db_param defaults to the current dir, which seems like its not readable to the user mt-daapd revokes to.

besides, use CODE to format log outputs. its a lot nicer.

I’m sory, but I’m not sure what you mean.

[fizze]

the config file (mt-daapd.conf) is an OLD one.
reinstall from that ipkg, and tell it to overwrite your config with the default one.

You will have to edit the mp3_dir, and probably other things.
But then you will have a new, “clean” config file.

Ok, noob here. I don’t get how to do this.

Well, however you installed that version of firefly, do that again.
When you are asked to overwrite anything answer with yes 😉
