MPD Error

[Nutul]

I have had this happen on two Pi's now. One time it happened I accidently removed the power without shutting it down. The second time it happened was on another Pi and my power went out.

Basically when the Pi comes back on all it says over and over again is "MPD error openMPdSock() failed. You can't even SSH into it and get a log.



Both were running the 32-bit version of 8.3.9. 

I just thought moOde was more stable than this. I used to have a similar issue with running piCore player because it needed to run a script to shut down. So if you just pulled power, the SD card would get corrupt and the Pi would not boot. I just don't want to run into a similar situation where I have to re-flash moOde EVERY TIME I have a power outage.

PS - Luckily the other one was powered down correctly and not even on when the power outage happened.

My Pi4 is on 24/7, and I have roughly 1 power outage a month (maybe 1 hour, maybe 3 seconds., but that's it) and never had an issue like yours in a good 4 years...
Try shutting it down correctly, and then reboot.
