Hi,
i’ve installed mopidy on my PI and i have the problem, that it fully ignores my changes in the config file. It always just starts with the builtin defaults. Doesn’t matter if started as app or system service. Both config files in ~/.config/mopidy/mopidy.conf and /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf are changed. I encounter the same problem on my ubuntu machine. I’ve also tried starting with --config configpath but it has no effect.
i found this thread but my configs should be readable.
ls -l /etc/modipy/modipy.conf
has this output:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 mopidy root 2027 Oct 5 11:35 /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf
i am user “pi”. i don’t know what i can try anymore
Can I just check how you know it is ignoring the changes in your config file? Are you running mopidy config to make it display the active config or is it just not working as you expected?
well, both. mopidy config and sudo service mopidy run config both show default config. That means my spotify account settings and my changes in mpd section are ignored. There i changed the hostname to 0.0.0.0 because i want to have acces from my desktop and this, of course, doesn’t work.
Have you checked the files in /etc/mopidy/extensions.d ?
There might be a spotify.conf with the default settings overriding your changes in /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf.
there really is, but the documentation says that these are overwritten by the main config file. And the changes in mpd section are also not taken.
i recently found out that xbmc is not starting anymore. Google says mopidy and xbmc are using different versions of libtag which makes them incompatible. i think my plan using mopidy besides xbmc is cursed
i appreciate all your help, but i think this is a dead end
The last file path given to --config overrides the previous ones. /etc/mopidy/extensions.d is just defaults from the extension packages. All your own configuration should go in /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf.
