I had similar trouble with a .deb install on 6.06 LTS i386. SC7 would
start when the machine booted but I couldn't start it by hand. In my
case, the problem was that the MySQL service wouldn't start. The
trouble for me was that my login scripts set TMPDIR environment
variables. So root's TMPDIR referenced a directory that the
SqueezeCenter user couldn't write to, MySQL would not start, and SC7
would keep attempting restarts. So if 

echo $TMPDIR

shows that you have a TMPDIR var set, try

unset TMPDIR; /etc/init.d/squeezecenter start

and if that fails, check the MySQL errors. The SC7 MySQL config file
should have a name like /var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/my.cnf

Good luck.
