I try to execute

mpdboot -n 2 -f /home/user/mpd.hosts

and then

mpdtrace

However, both of them return:

Alarm clock

I have a virtual machine with mpd installed on it. I copied the .vdi (the hard drive) to another machine.

    Finally I found it. This indicated a licence problem.

    The reason is that I installed Licensed mpd (not free mpd) in my virtual machine.

    Then I copied the virtual machine to another computer.

    That´s why the mpd can not be used in the new machine. I should update the licence.

  2. You should probably try updating your version of MPICH. MPD hasn't be used for years at this point and the newer versions don't require it.
