After installation I get an error "Cannot start Rivendell daemons" whenever trying to start rdadmin, rdairplay, rd<anything>.
- Check for the existence of a directory called /var/run/rivendell.
Because /var/run is stored on a RAM disk in Ubuntu this directory needs to be created after every boot. (This is fixed in the initialization scripts provided by the Tryphon package repository) - If you are using the guide from Alban you need to delete the "; < - your login" when you edit rd.conf for your AudioUser or the startup will fail with an invalid AudioUser error.
