[SOLVED] USB drive mount with root as owner, cannot be used

[Tim Curtis]

Hello @Tim Curtis , thanks for your help.

The folders and files seem to be clean, there is no strange hidden files. I use linux as my main OS. I have run the commands you suggested.

The "regenerate" command succeeded and went through my 17k+ music tracks.

"mpc stats" shows the right number of indexed tracks.

"moodeutl -l" shows :
- some thumbnails generation errors : "thumb-gen: Error: imagecreatefromstring() failed:"…
- a right number of parsed folders by thumb-gen (about 2300)
- the following final error : "genLibraryUTF8Rep(): Error: file create failed: /var/local/www/libcache"

And eventually "cat /var/log/mpd/log | grep error" shows about 20 errors like this one :
Sep 24 18:31 : mpg123: mpg123_getformat() failed: A generic mpg123 error.
[src/libmpg123/parse.c:1276] error: Giving up searching valid MPEG header after 65536 bytes of junk.

And except for above errors, the log confirm that files were scanned and "updated".

I tried again to play some tracks, and it made mpd mad again. In the moodeutl -l" log I can see : "command/index.php: Connection to MPD failed". I have to restart mpd to be able to get moode UI responsive and play some radios.


Do these results give some clues ?

The error below indicates the Library tag cache was not created and thus nothing will show in the Library views. This type of error from the UTF8 Replacement function is likely because there are some non-UTF8 characters in one or more files that are for some reason are causing the function to fail.

Code:

- the following final error : "genLibraryUTF8Rep(): Error: file create failed: /var/local/www/libcache

The Prefs, UTF8 character filter option is best effort only and so YMMV. Try turning it off and see if the Library tag cache can be generated.
