Solved: MPD service won't start
#1
Since the last couple of hours, I've been getting "MPD Error: OpenMpdSock() failed" notifications in the UI, rendering it unusable. 

Checking the syslog and I see the following:

Code:

Opened up the /etc/mpd.conf and found this, which seems a bit odd:

I tried rebooting and manually restarting the MPD service, but nothing helps. Can you give me an example of a working mpd.conf?

The good news is, if you simply delete /etc/mpd.conf (as root of course) then moOde will generate a new one. See the code at about line 393 in /var/www/command/worker.php

Better figure out what overwrote it, though, or you're likely to be regenerating a lot!

ETA: don't sweat the DCE/RPC error. It's known; annoying but apparently harmless.

Thanks, Kent! That did the trick for me. Hoping it was just an anomaly. 
Have a great weekend,
