Hi… I’m struggling to get anything to output from my Mopidy server to a snapclient. I’m receiving the error ‘Could not open file “tmp/snapfifo” for writing’ when attempting to play any track. I’ve attempted to manually create the file and change permissions to 777 to see if that would do anything, but I’m still getting the same error. Anyone have any ideas?
