Hi, I have installed mpdscribble on my laptop under 8.0-RC3 and configured it (/usr/local/etc/mpdscribble.conf). I have add the line in /etc/rc.conf mpdscribble_enable="YES" to launch it at startup but I got the message mpdscribble: Failed to create pidfile /var/run/mpdscribble.pid: Permission denied If I launch it from root or using the sudo command, I haven't got problem. But from startup or from my user account (that is in 'wheel' and 'operator' groups) I got the message above. I have created a system user called "mpdscribble" using the command : # pw user add mpdscribble -c "mpdscribble" \-d noexistent -s /usr/sbin/nologin and set the option daemon_user in the conf file but I always got the same error. Here my conf file /usr/local/etc/mpdscribble.conf : ## mpdscribble - an audioscrobbler for the Music Player Daemon. ## http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Client:mpdscribble # HTTP proxy URL. #proxy = http://the.proxy.server:3128 # The location of the pid file. mpdscribble saves its process id there. pidfile = /var/run/mpdscribble.pid # Change to this system user after daemonization. #daemon_user = mpdscribble # The location of the mpdscribble log file.
