Package: mpd
Version: 0.18.10-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I am trying out systemd. It looks like systemd is using the unit file
for mpd (/lib/systemd/system/mpd.service), but systemd (??) is not
creating the /run/mpd with correct ownership according to /etc/mpd.conf.
sudo grep '^user' /etc/mpd.conf
user "mzagrabe"
Performing:
sudo chown mzagrabe /run/mpd
sudo systemctl start mpd
fixed the issue.
I've grepped for how to set the user (owner) for the RuntimeDirectory of a
service, but have come up empty.
Thanks for your contribution to Debian!

Hi,
I'm sorry I somehow missed your bug report back in April and only
stumble over it now...

Unfortunately, changing the user in mpd.conf and expecting things to
work is not something that the Debian package supports. It's not just
/run/mpd, there's the library, database files, log, ... which all needs
changing, and none of that is easy to do with systemd (or easy to do
correctly with traditional init scripts).
If you want to run mpd as your user instead of as a system service,
the preferred way is to start it from your desktop session as described in
README.Debian:
To prevent mpd from running as a system service, disable its startup
using the command (as root) "update-rc.d mpd disable". mpd is then
started through the XDG autostart mechanism upon logging into your
desktop environment, provided it can find a valid config file (such
as ~/.mpdconf).
Perhaps this paraqgraph should be expanded somewhat and explain that
"valid config" includes proper permissions on the referenced directories
etc?
Florian
