ERROR Actor died: GMusicBackend

[djl236]

Gmusic no longer working. Updated to latest version and still doesn't work.

I get this error:

Nov 03 11:51:41 mopidy mopidy[1670]: ERROR Actor died: GMusicBackend (urn:uuid:7b26d467-e1a0-4fd7-a297-2196b93a7434) not found

Now that UUID is not of my current phone but my old one. Perhaps I need to update that but I don’t see where. The config only has device id.

The UUID is that of my old iPhone and not my current Android phone. Is there a way to change or update the UUID? My device ID that I'm using is that of my current phone, and when I started Mopidy after entering the Device ID and app password, I received email notification of the login.

The error means that someone tried to message the GMusic backend actor, but it had already died. To find the reason for that, there should be a stack trace further up in the log. This message alone doesn't tell us enough to figure out the root cause.

The UUID in the message is the ID the actor had before it died. It has nothing to do with your phones or the gmusic/device_id config value.

I have my current device's deviceiD in the config. Do you know how I can get rid of that old iOS one?

[Nick Steel]

Remove it from your mopidy config. mopidy config (or sudo mopidyctl config for the system service) shows the config settings that will be used. Perhaps you have not removed your old device ID from the correct mopidy config file.

[djl236]

ok so that was helpful and I'm part moron.

I'm running mopidy as a service BUT i still had the old ID in the non-service config (dummy!). Removed it and now it's working. Thanks guys.

Great to hear! 👍
