Right, I saw in some other bug report that it was no longer needed or was a legacy configuration item. In that case, it should be dropped from the default /etc/mpd.conf shipped in the package: rak@zeta:/tmp$ ar p mpd_0.23.3-1_amd64.deb data.tar.xz | tar JOx ./etc/mpd.conf | grep pid_file pid_file "/run/mpd/pid" > The tag_cache exception is non-fatal. The problem here is the Assertion > failure, which is #998310 and fixed in mpd 0.23.3-2 I can confirm that 0.23.3-2 fixes this bug and that I can run mpd with the minimal mpd.conf, assuming that I delete the pid_file line. (With the pid_file line, it runs into the issue you described in the rest of your email: Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta mpd[510628]: sndfile: libsndfile-1.0.31 Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta mpd[510628]: hybrid_dsd: The Hybrid DSD decoder is disabled because it was not explicitly enabled Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta mpd[510628]: adplug: adplug 2.3.3 Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta mpd[510628]: exception: Failed to open '/var/lib/mpd/tag_cache': No such file or directory Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta mpd[510628]: curl: version 7.74.0 Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta mpd[510628]: curl: with GnuTLS/3.7.2 Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta mpd[510628]: exception: Failed to create pid file "/run/mpd/pid": Permission denied Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta systemd[1]: mpd.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE Nov 05 08:45:25 zeta systemd[1]: mpd.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
