Missing user information when running in Unraid

[timbrueggenthies]

I'm trying to run the shairport-sync-docker container in unraid. As I am only using a pipe to forward the audio to, the only two things added are:

-v /tmp/snapcast:/tmp/snapcast -> The location of the pipe
-v /mnt/domains/shairport:/etc -> The location of the shairport config file

However, when starting the container, following errors appear.

dbus[8]: Could not get password database information for UID of current process: User "???" unknown or no memory to allocate password entry

dbus[8]: Unknown username "root" in message bus configuration file
dbus[8]: Could not get password database information for UID of current process: User "???" unknown or no memory to allocate password entry

dbus[8]: Unknown username "root" in message bus configuration file
dbus[8]: Could not get password database information for UID of current process: User "???" unknown or no memory to allocate password entry

dbus[8]: Unknown username "root" in message bus configuration file
dbus-daemon[8]: Could not get password database information for UID of current process: User "???" unknown or no memory to allocate password entry

dbus-daemon[8]: Failed to start message bus: Could not get UID and GID for username "messagebus"

Do you have an idea what is going wrong there? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the post. It's some kind of D-Bus issue. D-Bus is used by Avahi and also, optionally, by Shairport Sync itself.

Hi there. just wondering if you made any progress with this. I'm not familiar with Unraid, I'm afraid.

TBH i got carried away by the topic, as I don't have that much time lately for this stuff. I will try again in the coming week, Unraid also received a relatively big update a few month back. Maybe this has solved the issue.

The error remains, but I also don't have the time to look further into it.

No worries -- thanks for the update.
