ERROR Local library sqlite not found when running Mopidy as a service #82

Closed jpgaroto closed 7 years ago

Hi,

I'm not an expert so sorry if I'm asking for help in a wrong place. I installed Mopidy and Mopidy-local-sqlite on Lubuntu. I've tried and configured them running Mopidy with my user from a Terminal and everything was right. I could create a local library and browsed it using SpotMop sucessfully. When I was happy with everything I configured Mopidy to run as a service but the library was empty. I thought that it could be normal so I tried to create it again with "sudo mopidyctl local scan" but I received the following error:

Running "/usr/bin/mopidy --config /usr/share/mopidy/conf.d:/etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf local scan" as user mopidy INFO Starting Mopidy 2.0.1 INFO Loading config from builtin defaults INFO Loading config from /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf INFO Loading config from command line options INFO Enabled extensions: mopify, spotify, mpd, http, stream, spotmop, m3u, softwaremixer, file, local-images, local INFO Disabled extensions: none ERROR Local library sqlite not found

I tried uninstalling and installing again local-sqlite using pip but nothing changed.

My /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf lines related to this are:

[core] cache_dir = /var/cache/mopidy config_dir = /etc/mopidy data_dir = /var/lib/mopidy ....... [local-sqlite] enabled = true

[local] library = sqlite data_dir = /var/lib/mopidy/local media_dir = /home/garoto/Música/Musica scan_follow_symlinks = true

Thanks in advance.

Looks like mopidy, when running as a service, cannot find the local-sqlite extension, though it can find, for example, local-images. So, how did you install mopidy-local-sqlite?

jpgaroto commented 7 years ago

I installed it just like the documentation says (pip install Mopidy-Local-SQLite). It was my first use of pip so I don't know any other way to install it. As I said, it worked fine running Mopidy with my user but not as a service. If I need to install it in a different way please tell me how and I'll try.

thanks a lot.

No other idea? Any help please?

sudo pip install mopidy-local-sqlite should work. Another option on Debian/Ubuntu would be installing from apt.mopidy.com: https://docs.mopidy.com/en/latest/installation/debian/

However, since this doesn't seem to be an issue with mopidy-local-sqlite specifically, but more some kind of general installation question, I'd suggest posting this on https://discuss.mopidy.com if the problem persists.

Is this still an issue?

I had the same issue. I had to run the mopidy as pi user not root

Does the same solution work?

Just to be clear for anyone else that lands here.

We suggest and provide documentation for running Mopidy as:

There is no requirement to run Mopidy as the root user and in general you should avoid running things as root where possible.

When you run Mopidy as a service you must be sure to install anything from PyPI in such a way that the service user (mopidy) can find it. Just as @tkem said, normally that's the case of using sudo pip install <SOME PACKAGE>. Or alternatively, installing the package(s) using your package manager i.e. sudo apt install <SOME PACKAGE>.
