Web UI not responding with NFS folder unavailable - harrypulvirenti - 07-19-2021
Hi everyone,
I just finished my setup of moode on my Raspberry Pi 3 and everything is running smoothly except for one thing:
I mounted a remote music source with a shared folder via NFS.
The folder is working fine but I noticed that if I turn off my NAS but I still want to use moode with Spotify, for example, the Web UI is not responding because, as far as I understood, is waiting to find the shared folder that is not available in the network.
There is a way to fix this issue?
Thanks so much for the responses

IIRC the NFS protocol has a really long timeout of several minutes or more and this will block other processes. I don't know if it's configurable but if not then your may want to try Samba.

Yes, it is configurable but NFS was never intended to be used as an unreliable---e.g., "sometimes I'm there; sometimes I'm not"---service. Many consider the NFS soft mount option to be Evil™.
I second Tim's suggestion to use Samba.
