Mpd.service crashes

Not a huge issue since it restarts right away, and the raspberry pi uptime is fine, but I’m wondering where the issue comes from

sudo journalctl -f

outputs:

I’m using Volumio version 3.179 on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ with HifiBerry Digi+

This is not an issue, it happens on all platforms, due to the Volumio startup sequence of events.
Nothing to worry about.

Alright, thank you.
I must say though, this happened after a few days of uptime, not on startup as you mentioned

Well that is difficult to say if you decide to show only a part of the log :wink:

There was nothing relevant before that.

If you read the log you can see the raised error, the crash (or exit code), and then the service restarting.
