[SOLVED] openMpdSocket(): connection failed

[liteon]

Hello,

moOde audio player release 6.5.2 2020-05-03
Platform (Pi-3B+ 1GB v1.3)
ARM arch (aarch64, 64-bit kernel)

I set up Samba connection to a music library on HDD connected to a network router via USB, regenerated Music Library and Album cover thumbnail cache.
I get message "MPD error openMpdSock() failed" when Updating the Library. Consequently, the music folder does not appear on the library page.
Could you please help me get access to the library?
Below is a part from the "cat /var/log/moode.log" containing the error messages:
