Bugzilla – Bug 14465
Initial scan after upgrade shows 0 Artists, upgrade from 7.3.x -> 7.4.x
Last modified: 2011-06-30 17:35:51 UTC
Initial scan completed and 0 Artists found. Summary line shows: Your music library contains 781 albums with 7820 songs by 0 artists Home-> Artists shows now artists, just header line: 781 albums with 7820 songs by 0 artists Search finds no artists
Hard to know what the issue is without more info. Can you possibly upload 1 track that we fail to pull an artist out of?
Arnon: I am unable to reproduce this, can you please turn on Scan Logging then attach the log to this bug
this was an upgrade from version 7.3.3 on an existing library I have hit "delete all and do a full rescan" and all the artists were pulled in.
I have still not been able to reproduce this issue. Do you feel like doing some additional testing for us? or are you happy that this issue is resolved for you?

The issue is resolved for me, but I would be happy to do additional debug if it will help. Attached are my log files, perhaps they show something.
I have seen this issue as on mac os 10.6 (as AIFF files) as well as on windows xp (as MPEG files).
Blair: Can you please post your scanner and server log

Created attachment 6162 [details] Server Logs This bug is still unresolved in my system. I’m happy to run some additional tests for you if that can help. (See also bug 14817). Apart from the 0 artists, the scanner also has a different result in terms of number of songs compared to iTunes. I have put the scanner logging to info and forced a new scan. The logs are attached. Total Tracks: 6,734 -> iTunes has 6812 tracks Total Albums: 991 -> iTunes has 857 Albums Total Artists: 0 -> iTunes has 431 Total Genres: 122 –> same as iTunes Total Playing Time: 437:43:14 Music Scan DetailsPlaylist Scan (5 of 5) Complete 00:03:29 iTunes Import (6812 of 6812) Complete 00:14:36 iTunes Playlist Import (27 of 27) Complete 00:15:52 Merge Various Artists (663 of 663) Complete 00:04:21 Artwork Scan (6 of 6) Complete 00:00:12 Database Cleanup #1 (6753 of 6753) Complete 00:02:28 Database Cleanup #2 Complete 00:04:31 The server has finished scanning your music collection.

Okay, so I’ve rescanned my library, but this time I selected “Clear Library and rescan everything”. That did the job; I have my artists back. So it seems that 7.3 database is not compatible with 7.4. Total Tracks: 6,734 --> iTunes has 6812 Total Albums: 991 --> iTunes has 857 Total Artists: 2,245 --> iTunes has 431 Total Genres: 122 --> Same as iTunes Total Playing Time: 437:43:14 Music Scan DetailsPlaylist Scan (5 of 5) Complete 00:03:47 iTunes Import (6812 of 6812) Complete 00:55:02 iTunes Playlist Import (27 of 27) Complete 00:13:31 Merge Various Artists (991 of 991) Complete 00:06:15 Artwork Scan (991 of 991) Complete 00:23:01 Although I have my artists back, there are still big difference in what iTunes has and what SBS finds. Why is that?
I have also seen this with Squeezebox Server 7.5.4 (Version: 7.5.4 - r32171 @ Thu Apr 14 09:19:34 PDT 2011). It did not happen immediately after upgrading the server, but after I did the following in iTunes (10.2.1): Select all tracks Check box next to Album Artist name with Edit control empty Check box next to Part of a Compilation and select No Click OK This is the output from the scan: Directory Scan Complete 00:00:03 Playlist Scan (15 of 15) Complete 00:00:07 iTunes Import (98523 of 98523) Complete 00:15:21 iTunes Playlist Import (14 of 14) Complete 00:01:50 Merge Various Artists (202 of 202) Complete 00:00:21 Database Cleanup #1 (2380 of 2380) Complete 00:00:11 Database Cleanup #2 Complete 00:00:06 The server has finished scanning your music collection. Total Time: 00:17:59 (Thursday, June 30, 2011 / 7:31 PM) Server displays: 215 albums with 2380 songs by 0 artists. I have since tried: Clear library and rescan everything- no difference Uninstall and reinstall Squeezebox Server - no difference Given that I seem to have a reproducible case here, are there any other experiments (e.g. directions to manually clean database), logging, etc. I can do to help diagnose?
