PMS hangs sporadically on startup while opening index #95

Closed kimtore closed 6 years ago

kimtore commented 7 years ago

The last thing seen in the debug log is similar to:

[0.39133] Sync(): opening search index

Workaround is to delete PMS' cache files:

rm -rf ~/.cache/pms/<mpd_host>/<mpd_port>

I had another hang just now at Sync(): opening search index. Waited a long while and nothing appears to be happening. Killed the process and tried again, same thing.

Deleted its cache directory, tried again, it worked.

Loaded again, working.

This bug might be fixed in #106. @tremby, care to give it a try?

tremby commented 6 years ago

Hope so! Due to the sporadic nature I can't be sure just yet, but I will report back if I still get these kind of hangs.

Thanks. I'll close the issue. Feel free to re-open if if occurs again.
