Start mDNS Server

[Anonymous]

Hi!
Due to the fact that another daapd software was unable to unset the default runtime rescan I decided to install mt-daapd on my openbsd system.
Successfully it was done with the 0.2.3 tarball. But when accessing the administrative web interface for mt-daapd i noticed this:

Service Status Control
Rendezvous Stopped Start MDNS Server
DAAP Server Running Stop DAAP Server

When clicking on “Start MDNS Server” it remains Stopped.
And if i run “mt-daapd -d 9 -f” and crop the part when clicking on “Start MDNS Server” this is my term output:

When i ran the other daapd software I had no problem with running mDNSResponder.

System:
Openbsd 3.8, mt-daapd 0.2.3, howl-1.0.0, libid3tag-0.15.1b…
Hardware:
Intel Celeron 700MHz, 256RAM, 320+8GB IDE HDD

That’s an interface bug, I think.

Was it compiled with howl, or the built-in responder, or with –disable-mdns? And was it run with the -m option?

Most importantly, does it show up in iTunes? If so, something is working. 🙂 Don’t know if it’s howl or the built in mdns responder, but something is working.

okay. You can only use the built-in mdns, or howl — the two step on each other. So if you want to use howl (and you probably do), then you need to compile with “–enable-howl”. Everything should come out okay then.
