    So I get this message in my logs when I try to start mt-daapd (svn-1586):

    Error opening db: No backend database support for type: sqlite

    I have sqlite 3.5.3 installed. I’m also using a 64-bit machine. I used –enable-sqlite3 and even specified the appropriate directories: –with-sqlite3-includes=/usr/include –with-sqlite3-libs=/usr/lib64

    What is the problem? Has anyone encountered this before?

    TIA.

    You probably need to set your database in your config file

    #
    # db_type/db_parms
    #
    # This specifies what kind of database you want, and where
    # it should be kept. Valid db_types depend on what databases are
    # compiled in, but can include "sqlite" and "sqlite3".
    #
    # db_parms is the parameters for that database backend. For sqlite and
    # sqlite3, these parameters are the path to the database.
    #

    db_type = sqlite3

    You can either edit the file directly or change in the web interface.

    You have sqlite in your config which is sqlite2.

    Thanks, that was a step in the right direction. I was using an old mt-daapd.conf– I guess it has been changed in newer versions.
