For some time I have been successfully running a minidlna server which streams music to a Bose Soundtouch device over WiFi. However, it stopped working a few weeks ago, and the SoundTouch device could only find an empty folder. After several re-writes of /etc/minidlna.conf without success, searching for other versions of minidlna.conf in non-default locations, I finally tracked the culprit down to /usr/lib/systemd/system/minidlna.service: [Unit] Description=MiniDLNA UPnP-A/V and DLNA media server After=var-run.mount nss-lookup.target network.target remote-fs.target [Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/var/run/minidlnad.pid ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/minidlnaconfig EnvironmentFile=-/var/lib/minidlna/rescan.conf ExecStart=/usr/sbin/minidlnad $RESCAN -P /var/run/minidlnad.pid -f /var/lib/minidlna/minidlna.conf [0] [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target So the unit file was forcing minidlna to use the configuration file in /var/lib/minidlna/minidlna.conf rather than the default /etc/minidlna.conf! /var/lib/minidlna/minidlna.conf pointed to media_dir=/mnt and was recreated at start-up, so even editing the media_dir= line didn't work. Changing line [0] to include "-f /etc/minidlna.conf" got things working again - and just in time for Christmas. ;-) I have no idea how this got changed, but I wonder if anyone else has come across anything similar?
