forked-daapd doesn't start #31

Hi, I've got a problem getting forked-daapd to start up. The logs says:

[2011-02-23 16:46:37] main: Forked Media Server Version 0.12 taking off

[2011-02-23 16:46:37] main: mDNS init

[2011-02-23 16:46:37] main: mDNS deinit

[2011-02-23 16:46:37] main: Exiting.

I have no clue what's wrong.

Help is much appreciated!

In the forked-daapd.conf file set the log_level to "spam". This will give you a lot more information on what might be wrong. Although, from what you've posted it looks like you might have a problem with the avahi-daemon. Are you sure it's running on your system?

That was it, thanks a lot! :)

I'm having the same problem after forked-daapd v. 26 had been working flawlessly on ubuntu 16.04. I tried booting with different kernels, 4.15.0-13-generic, 4.48, etc but no luck. I'm looking for help since I haven't been able to figure this out on my own after a few days of dealing with it. Help? scan: Scanned 200 files...
