Fails only when run by systemd

[doronbehar]

I'm getting this error:

mpdas[4887]: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error'
mpdas[4887]:   what():  basic_string::_M_construct null not valid

Only when I run mpdas inside a systemd service. But when I run it manually I don't get it :/

Any idea how to debug this? Google didn't help much...

Hey @hrkfdn,

I think the problem is this line:

mpdas/main.cpp

Line 103 in c81c480

std::string home = getenv("HOME");

main.cpp assumes this environmental variable is set, while it isn't set in system-wide systemd services. Hence the fix that worked for me was to add:

[Service]
Environment="HOME=/home/doron"

To my mpdas.service.
