Angelblue05 4130 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) I'm posting on behalf of my brother, @@saitoh183 I keep seeing the following error in the MBS log. I can't figure out what could cause this error or what it means. I keep seeing it when I'm watching something via Kodi. It will randomly pop up, but it seems to originate from MBS.

ebr 14948 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 That query is asking for every single item (other than individual songs) in his collection - without any limit.

xnappo 1593 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) Yep - we do that to build the database of all of the backgrounds. I have started to see the out of memory error as well with later versions of the server. We could be the database piecemeal, or we could not pre-load some of it. @ @@im85288 FYI - we started off not pre-loading anything, then @ added pre-loading movies, then someone (im85288 or I, I don't remember) expanded it. I will note that the new speed-up code is going to need big queries to build the in-memory database too. xnappo Edited December 8, 2014 by xnappo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xnappo 1593 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Well, actually I don't think it is needed for what it is there for right now. @ was concerned with hitting the server every time the user changed selections to get the list of background art for rotation. However - it is going to be needed for the speedup idea where we background load the majority of the information (people, images, plot etc) and then only need to do small requests and processing at run time. This is a 3x speed-up for us. We may end up only doing it for movies I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angelblue05 4130 Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) Sorry, I should have explained better. The outofmemory exception error still happens when the background image service is enabled. It happened as soon as I've restarted XBMC. However, when I decided to disable the service again (awaiting further instruction), I started getting this new error, which I didn't experience before updating to 731. That's why I posted it here (just wanted to make you aware of it, in case it's something you've recently modified or if it's something I can resolve on my side, like deleting the cache database). But it seems to have corrected itself, luckily. @@xnappo MBS log after I updated to 731 and got the outofmemory error (sorry it's almost 100MB): https://www.dropbox.com/s/7lx0nme869jt0x2/server-63553603501.txt?dl=0 The error happened around 8:07pm, you can search for HTTP Response 500 (we live in different timezones) Edit: I forgot to mention that I do not see the Json error in XBMC anymore (still appears in log). However, I still see the failed to connect. It does seem to only occur once after I restart XBMC.... I haven't seen the error yet, while watching content. It just happened again and this time I even had the Background image service disabled. I will keep testing and let you know if I notice anything else.

xnappo 1593 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) The JSON/connect error is different from the memory error. Please let's discuss that issue here: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/15094-connection-error-when-server-updates/ It is very confusing otherwise - they are two different things. Disabling the background rotating art was ONLY for the out of memory error. However now I no longer am sure the big query was the memory problem - the out of memory error still occurred with the update to remove the huge number of episodes, so now I think it is either a server error, or a meta-data problem. Also, if you don't mind, please don't edit your posts and expect me to read it, I read it as soon as you hit the submit button as it goes to my email, and will not always notice edits. Just post another reply please. xnappo Edited December 9, 2014 by xnappo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are asking for every single movie that exists. That doesn't seem like a scale-able solution to me. Someone trying to run the server on, say, a NAS with limited resources could easily have a problem with that. Not to mention trying to run across a remote connection of some sort. If you absolutely must pre-load everything like that, I suggest you break it into chunks of 500 or so items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xnappo 1593 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) We have been doing that since day 1, and people with bigger collections than this have been running for a long time. If large queries are going to fail, the server should have a limit itself. 800 movies is nothing compared to some of our users. I will try to break it up, but I suspect it will still happen. @ / @@im85288 FYI @@Angelblue05 - when this happens: 1. Are you still able to browse 'All Movies' normally? 2.
