Ubuntu Nightlies upgrade issues

[SonicGT]

I had firefly running fine on my Ubuntu feisty machine, went to upgrade it and now it won’t work
I used the dpkg -i latestnightly.deb
and it says its installed, but it really doesn’t appear to be running (doesn’t show up in itunes or can’t get to web console.)

when I try
sudo /etc/init.d/mt-daap restart
I get this
client.c:776: avahi_client_errno: Assertion ‘client failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

I’m not a linux guru more of an intermediate or beginner so any help would be appreciated.
I’m running Feisty but only accessing via ssh, so using command line only thanks.

avahi-daemon isn’t running.

Make sure your /etc/default/avahi (or avahi-daemon, can’t remember) has been changed to auto-start at boot, then do “/etc/init.d/avahi-daemon start”.

Thanks
Got that started and now it doesn’t give me any errors, but still doesn’t show up in itunes or no web console. I reverted back to 1586 from the new 1671 and it then works again, so at least I’m up and running.
When I install 1671 now with avahi running it does show up is the processes so it is running?? Any suggestions now that I got my avahi issue fixed?

I’m not sure what this means. Are you saying it works with 1671, or not?

If not, does it show up in process list? Do you get anything in the syslog?

with build 1586 all works fine, but when I install build 1671 it doesn’t work, but does show up in the process list.

Did you change your plugin_dir?

Plugins are now in /$prefix/lib/mt-daapd. It won’t load the old plugins, and consequently won’t advertise any services.
