Hello to all!
I've had this problem with previous versions of MPD, and now I'm using
0.18.7, but the problem persists. This is an odd situation: MPD is
configured to run on 127.0.0.1, but if the Wifi is disconnected in
NetworkManager, it starts spitting error messages and refuses to play:
$ mpc
error: Failed to resolve host name
$ ncmpcpp
error: Failed to resolve host name
$ MPD_HOST=127.0.0.1 mpc
error: Failed to resolve host name
$ cat /etc/hostname
localhost
$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
$ egrep -v '^#|^$' .mpd/mpd.conf
music_directory "~/.mpd/database"
playlist_directory "~/.mpd/playlists"
db_file "~/.mpd/tag_cache"
pid_file "~/.mpd/pid"
state_file "~/.mpd/state"
bind_to_address "127.0.0.1"
audio_output {
type "pulse"
name "My Pulse Output"
}
mixer_type "software"
max_playlist_length "32768"
filesystem_charset "UTF-8"
id3v1_encoding "UTF-8"
The only thing I noticed is that NetworkManager erases /etc/resolv.conf
when disconnected, but I tried writing to resolv.conf myself, and it
didn't help. But If I reconnect the Wifi, I can play music again. The
network is very unstable where I am today, so I can't play music often.
I have also tried this, but it doesn't make any difference:
bind_to_address "localhost"
I have asked for help at http://forum.musicpd.org/, but they said
something is not right in my network, and I believe that could be
actually the case.
Thank you for your attention!
Teresa and Junior
