It states that it finished writing the database in zero seconds. It also claims to have added a .flac file.
is the database file written? I believe the ~/.mpdconf indicated the database should exist at /var/lib/mpd/mpd.db and my system did not have permission to write there so I changed it to ~/.mpd/mpd.db and it writes.
The path to my database file is the same as yours. Did you have to create an empty file at ~/.mpd.mpd.db or did the file get created by mpd in an empty directory? The relevant lines in my ~/.mpdconf are music_directory "/home/bob/mpdmusic" playlist_directory "/home/bob/.mpd/playlists" db_file "/home/bob/.mpd/mpd.db" #db_file "/var/lib/mpd/mpd.db" log_file "/home/bob/.mpd/mpd.log" #log_file "syslog" #pid_file "/home/bob/.mpd/pid" pid_file "/var/run/mpd/mpd.pid" state_file "/home/bob/.mpd/state" #state_file "/var/lib/mpd/mpdstate" error_file "/home/bob/.mpd/mpd.error user "bob" bind_to_address "any" port "6600" log_level "verbose" gapless_mp3_playback "yes" save_absolute_paths_in_playlists "yes" metadata_to_use "artist,album,title,track,name,genre,date,composer,performer,disc" default_permissions "read,add,control,admin" Bob -- Registered Linux User #463880 FSFE Member #1300 GPG-FP: A6C1 457C 6DBA B13E 5524 F703 D12A FB79 926B 994E openSUSE 11.3 64-bit, Kernel 2.6.36.90-desktop, KDE 4.5.3 Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 2.66GHz, 8GB DDR RAM, nVidia GeForce 9600GT -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
