Try starting caed manually with sudo as the same user as jackd.

What I always do, is chown caed, ripcd and rdcatchd rivendell-user and chmod "execute as user"(?). Since I use Debian, I also edit the rivendell init-script to use start-stop-daemon to start the daemons as the right user.

By default Rivendell seems to like running as root. However, we have it configured to run as a regular user as well as jackd. We give this user special permissions to run jackd with realtime priority. We start jackd as that user before starting Rivendell (using upstart scripts on Ubuntu 14.04), and this seems to work well for us.

    Thanks, that is exactly what I'm working on right now.
    jackd is running as the rivendell user
    rivendell only will connect to jack if I run jack as root
    then I have to run anything I want to connect to jack as root (not
    what I want to do)
    I can start jackd from command line as either user or root but
    rivendell only sees it if started as root


    Might have something to do with how I start rivendell daemons
    starting as a service as root, only way I can get them to start.

    Thanks

    Tim

        Are jackd and Rivendell (caed) running as the same user? If
        not, you should either run jackd and caed as the same user or
        possibly configure jackd to allow different users to connect.

            Greetings,

            I have one machine where rivendell refuses to show up as a
            client for jack.
            here are the facts

            rivendell audio works fine using alsa connection directly
            to card
            jack will start from command line or qjackctl and all
            other audio programs will use it.
            same command put in rdadmin/jack configuration will not
            start jack.
            jack is started rt @ 44100 - rivendell sample rate of card
            is 44100
            If I start jack server manually before rivendell daemons
            when rivendell daemons are started rivendell does not see
            jack.
            etc/security/limits.d has been configured for realtime

            in short jack doesn't seem to be my problem, it starts and
            runs fine and all other audio client programs will use it,
            but rivendell continues to not see it.

            I have done this many many times over the years, first
            time I have ever had a problem with rivendell not seeing
            jack server.

            any thoughts I night have overlooked?

            Cheers
