Hi friends, I am begginer that sorry if my question is stupud :). I install mopidy few days ago. I followed [docs.mopidy.com](http://docs.mopidy.com) and my installation was successfully. I tryed to install YouTube extension… success again and everything was ok but only if mopidy runs in terminal. My problem is if i run mopidy as service, mopidy works but i cannot see any installed extensions. There are no any extension in serach in musicbox\_webclient.

It looks like you get the “Extension disabled by self check” message if your config isn’t valid. If you have a look at the logs as Mopidy starts up you’ll hopefully see an error message telling you what the problem is.
