Musicpd don't restart

[Markand]

Hi there,

I got one thing a little annoying, when I try to restart musicpd it says:


Stopping musicpd:
Waiting for PIDS: 10234, 10234, 10234, 10234


and it never stops.. Do you have any idea ?

[kamikaze]

That is strange. It stops for me.

Can you check with top which state it hangs in? Does -9 10234 (of course the PID has to be adjusted) have an effect?

[Markand]

Yes it works if I kill -9 it, the state is

630 nobody 3 96 0 25308K 3188K ucond 0:00 0.00% mpd

It seems alright yet.

[kamikaze]

And the state while the restart hangs?

[Markand]

It stays on « ucond »

That sounds like the kill signal is somehow not sent. Maybe your rc.subr got mangled during a mergemaster.

[Markand]

Mmm I don't think so, after the mergemaster I got the exactly same rc.subr, maybe my mpd.conf ? this is it

#
# /usr/local/etc/mpd.conf 31/01/2009 12:38
#

# Dirs
music_directory "/usr/music/"
playlist_directory "/var/lib/mpd/"
db_file "/var/lib/mpd/tag_cache"
log_file "/var/log/mpd/mpd.log"
error_file "/var/log/mpd/errors.log"
pid_file "/var/run/mpd/mpd.pid"

# General
bind_to_address "any"
state_file "/var/lib/mpd/state"
user "nobody"
filesystem_charset "UTF-8"

# Audio output
audio_output {
type "oss"
name "Oss device"
}
mixer_type "oss"
mixer_device "default"
mixer_control "vol"

In fact, musicpd himself isn't killed, I tried to kill it and it do not works, I need to kill -9 it to stop it.

And this is the fstat of mpd

USER CMD PID FD MOUNT INUM MODE SZ|DV R/W

It seems that I'm not the only one who has this problem, I think it's a upstream issue.

It appears I occasionally have this problem as well.

[lungten]

Well, this seems to be a problem since version 0.14.1. I am experiencing it as well.

[Markand]

It's seems to be solved now, I update from ports and it works! :)
