From log file:

Apr 22 05:15:32 buildroot ssdpd[99]: Cannot create UUID cache, /var/db//ssdpd.cache: No such file or 
directory

To make matters worse, this system ran systemd and also did not have the Linux canonical /var/lib/misc (replaces /var/db on Linux, c.f., *BSD), but it does have a /var/cache directory.

On some uClibc based systems (Buildroot) that have systemd enabled, the
/var/db or /var/lib/misc directories may be missing.  This patch adds a
fallback to attempt to create a /var/lib/ssdpd directory for the cache.

The correct fix is to fix the rootfs to include /var/lib/misc, so this
is more of a last ditch fallback.
