* As a "root" user start a "Terminal Session", at the command-line enter:
<blockquote>{{Code| systemctl status minidlna.service}}</blockquote>
<blockquote>Response:
{{Text|Text=<pre>minidlna.service - MiniDLNA is a DLNA/UPnP-AV server software
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/minidlna.service; enabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sat 2013-08-10 08:46:45 MDT; 16min ago
Process: 527 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/minidlna -f /etc/minidlna.conf -P /var/run/minidlna/minidlna.pid (code=exited,
status=255)}}</blockquotepre
* Also somewhere in the "messages" log reveals:
<blockquote>{{Text|Text= Aug 10 09:20:28 localhost minidlna[526]: [2013/08/10 09:20:28] minidlna.c:753: fatal: No IP address automatically detected!}}</blockquote>
* What does all this mean? When DLNA starts it automatically expects to retrieve the Amahi servers' IP address. DLNA could not get the address as the network services on the server had not yet completed start-up and configuration.
* To enable NetworkManager Wait Online at startup with the following command:
<blockquote>{{Code| systemctl enable NetworkManager-wait-online}}</blockquote>
* Enter the following to ensure that DLNA is enabled to start at each system boot:
<blockquote>{{Code| systemctl enable minidlna.service}}</blockquote>
* If this was the problem encountered, on the next system boot DLNA should be running.
