I have built more than a dozen Rivendell machines running Debian Squeeze or Wheezy, all of them running Rivendell compiled from source, and have never experienced a race condition starting the daemons.

The only machines where daemon start-ups are problematic are two that run JACK. These machines feed Internet-only streams and run Rivendell, liquidsoap, and icecast, and the start-up process is hairy. But my other machines, which use ASI cards and no JACK, never seem to have problems.

Sorry, I guess I over-trimmed the thread behind this post. I've been using Debian Linux (both 32 and 64 bit depending on actual hardware I'm running it on), the primary "on air" machine is still running the older "Squeeze" distribution, everything else I have Rivendell on runs "Wheezy" except for a personal laptop I have that is on "Sid" but is not set up to function for the radio station in any way. I typically use the binaries from Tryphon, but have compiled my own at times to get a latest fix or features.

In any case, my gripe here is that it seems that these daemons fail to do enough sanity checks, and tend to suffer from "race conditions". "ripcd" can either quietly, not start up, or start up incorrectly if "caed", which appears to need to start up first, is not yet ready to receive some sort of communication from it. In the past and present, this has caused many hours of confusion for me.

load correctly.


This should not be an issue.
