I noticed that my asus n66u hasn't been performing well lately and after a quick check of my system log, I noticed that it was filled with this error. I'm running the latest merlin build 378.53_0. Any help would be appreciated. Here is just 1 section to show how often this error is being triggered/logged

I noticed that my asus n66u hasn't been performing well lately and after a quick check of my system log, I noticed that it was filled with this error. I'm running the latest merlin build 378.53_0. Any help would be appreciated. Here is just 1 section to show how often this error is being triggered/logged

It's a Bonjour error...

HP Printer wireless on your network maybe? If so, power cycle it and it should go away...

I've seen this once in a while for those, and also iTunes goes odd every once in a while - again, a reboot on the PC and that might take care of the problem.
 
All Mac and iOS devices here with no printers. I think I may have solved it just now though. You mentioning iTunes reminding me that I had enabled the iTunes server option, on the asus n66u, under the media servers tab but I never actually got it to work on any of my devices. Disabling this seems to have resolved the error. On another note can anyone actually confirm that the iTunes Server feature in merlin still actually works? If not, this is for sure a bug report now ;-)

That's right... been a long time since I've played around with the 3rd party iTunes media servers - I used to use mt-daapd, but it's buggy and hasn't been directly supported by the authors except for emergency bug fixes.. if I recall, there used to be a nasty race condition that could occur if it started before the mDNS daemon was fully up and running, and it would throw errors like this and basically not work until it was stop/starte'd...

Anyways - check your version of RMerlins firmware - seeing that he mashed a bug like this back on 376.44 last summer, so may be either a regression or...

- FIXED: Missing mDNSResponder daemon preventing mt-daapd from working on MIPS devices (N16,N66,AC66)

ya I'm running 378.53_0 so maybe the error is back :(
 
if you can get to the shell - try doing a stop on mt-daapd, and then a start... see if that clears it up - might want to run a second shell session and tail the logs so you can watch in real-time..
