Problem with MPD call

[Mostafa_N_]

Hi,

I have a corrupted MPD on my machine. Whenever I call any of the commands "mpdtrace" or "mpdallexit" I get the following message:

mpdroot: cannot connect to local mpd at: /tmp/mpd2.console_root
probable cause: no mpd daemon on this machine
possible cause: unix socket /tmp/mpd2.console_root has been removed
mpdtrace (__init__ 1524): forked process failed; status=255

I have my mpd running:

mpd& 
ps -ef | grep mpd

Note: I am running on my own machine! Single Node, Quad core (intel i7 core)

Any helps would be appreciated.

Hello, MPD and the commands have to be run as the same user. The error message you see typically occurs if MPD is running as a different user as the one who executes the commands. Best regards, Georg Zitzlsberger
