This is not as urgent as if the server was not running. However, it still worries a bit when the server reports being "stopped" in the HDA control panel, but it is indeed running as tested on a client machine with iTunes in Windows.

I've attached a screen shot of what I mean. Any thoughts on how to help Amahi properly report the status of my AmahiTunes server?

Sometimes things get a little confused it seems. Recommend stopping the service, then starting it again and see if that clears it up. It has worked for me with other services that appear in the dashboard.
I have also had to reboot before. The PID file or LOCK file gets in a state occasionally where things are incorrectly reported. The only way to fix it in my experience is to stop/then start the service.
If that does not work, we will need to do more investigation.

Trying to use the controls in the Server-Settings tab did not seem to make a difference. However, I did a reboot and it is not reporting properly. Thanks.

Did you try stopping and starting it manually via command line? That was part of my intent with the previous post.
Also, a search of the wiki or the forums here might provide possible solutions.
