If you want to browse the library by artist, album, genre, new music,
etc then LMS must successfully complete a scan of the library. It
doesn't have to scan every time you start LMS, as the scan creates a
database that is saved to disk. But it does have to have at least one
successful scan, and then new-and-updated scans whenever you add music
to your library or edit tags.

If the scan doesn't complete then you should still be able to browse
your library using the "Music Folder" menu, which simply uses the folder
and file structure of your library instead of the metadata in tags. 

Sorry, don't know the answer to your second question, but I wouldn't
think the failed scan would prevent LMS from starting.
