Various bugs with WinXP on embedded (r29492):

- Control Panel doesn't start
- Can't change between SQLite and MYSql-Database
- No progress shown while scanning (SQLite)
- Can't do a complete rescan (clear scan) - option always changes to "change for new and changed files" again
- While scanning only 32 CDs (from > 1.000) are put into database
- Update-scan crashes after 1 hour (after scanning a lot CDs)

:(

Any error message? Could you please tell us more about your system  
(Windows version, SP, antivirus, firewall etc.)

> - Can't change between SQLite and MYSql-Database

How does it fail? Error message?

could you please attach server.log and scanner.log (location can be found  
in Settings/Info)

No error message, no entry in the log files ...cp is in task manager for a few seconds then disappears
Win XP SP 3, Avira AntiVir (disabled), no firewall

There is not even an option in the web interface to do so

Had to reinstall the "Normal" 7.5 by copying the (before saved) directory (including the old log files)  to my system and to do a rescan. Scanner log doesn't have any lines of the embedded scan. Yesterday I posted some here: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71900

Just installed embedded r29549 but it didn't work as well.

1. Control Panel can't be opened - squeezeboxcp appears for 10 seconds then disappears - no entry in logfile
(WinXP SP 3, no firewall, no virusscan)

My music is sorted the following
Hard Disk "M:"
Different folders "M:\A", "M:\B" ... "M:\Z".
One Directory "M:\Database" with links to all directories that should be searched. Works fine under "normal" 7.5

Tried SQLlite and MySQL scan:
In Both scans, progress can only be viewed by MANUALLY refreshing browser. No automatic refresh. (Works finde in "normal" 7.5)

1. SQLlite scan => took 3 hours (140.000 files). Not quicker than normal 7.5.
Scan ran fine - scanning M:\A, M:\B ...
After M:\Z
It "precaced artwork" - but only 239 fles (maybe the artwork in M:\Z only?).
No error message in scanner.log

But:
- NO artwork is shown - but even no default artwork-icon, only a red "x".

2. MYSQL scan:
- No progress shown during scan even not after manual refresh
- After 2 1/2 hours (being scanning M:\x" scanner crashed (unfortunately I had to re-install the before saved "working" directory and deleted the log-file).

What I recognized:
1st line was "removing cache"
Then It started scanning with M:\A
But right from the beginning ALL artists showed up under "artists" and even albums being in e.g. M:\N , scanned later.

VERY frustrating - took me 5 hours and version is as unuseful as previous.

I'm only testing embedded for Andy announced the new scanner will be included in this - and he refuses to take the new scanner to "normal" 7.5. But "Normal" 7.5 has different bugs with artworks known for month.

Maybe those bugs could be corrected in embedded windows soon?

Thanks :)

As the embedded branch has become the base for 7.6 we'll need to review this. Do you still see these issues with 7.6 nightlies?
Comment 5 Michael Herger 2011-01-17 04:30:53 UTC
Please open new, distinct bugs for issues still seen in 7.6 latest nightly. And make sure they're not reported already.

Thanks!
