Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mpd
I am using Ubuntu 8.04 (upgraded from dapper) and mpd-version 0.13.1-3ubuntu1. When I restart mpd (/etc/init.d/mpd restart), all works fine, but when I reboot the machine, mpd failes to start. For a test, I startet mpd by hand: "sudo mpd --stdout", which gave me the following output: ---- No "audio_output" defined in config file Attempt to detect audio output device Attempting to detect a alsa audio device Successfully detected a alsa audio device error parsing state file "/var/lib/mpd/state" ---- The file /var/lib/mpd/state lookes like this: --- audio_device_state:1:default detected output state: play current: 2901 time: 213 random: 1 repeat: 0 crossfade: 3 playlist_begin --- if I add a line "playlist_end" at the end of the file, mpd starts. It is a little bit confusing, because the boot process should only execute the mpd init script. I checked my init.d directory, if there is another script left (from original dapper installation), which interferes with /etc/init.d/mpd, but i found none.
