danielk23 3 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 when trying to open the plugins catalog within the WMC interface emby classic then crashes back to the WMC main screen. I've tried multiple times and bounced the entire server as well, but nothing doing. The attached error is being logged within the windows event viewer Currently i only have the chocolate plugin installed. Any help gratefully appreciated. thanks in advance Daniel crash.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mariors44 18 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Having the same issue as well.. Server Version 3.0.5921.0 MBClassic-3132016e41bf0f9134047a48f551c5645f3188f.log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37019 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Thanks, it's being looked into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Luke - somehow the image has become corrupted passing through the new domain/CF or something. The same image does not show in the web catalog either. However, that very same image does show in the web client on the plug-in detail page...

CrossCech 8 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) I recently did a fresh install on a pc and also installed EMC 3.0.299. I went to apply my favorite EMC skin Xenon but the catalog won't open. I keep getting an error shown in attached pic: I've checked on my laptop EMC as well. It does not have the latest update for EMC, but it too is throwing the same error. The picture is from my laptop EMC. Suggestions? Edit*** I missed an earlier post about this found here. I looked through this sub-forum before I posted, but didn't see it. Please feel free to delete this thread or merge into the other. Thanks!

ebr 14904 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I invalidated the image reference that appears to be causing this problem. Can someone please try again and see if it fixes it? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If indeed my problem is the same as the OP's, after rebooting both server and laptop EMC, still no joy.Same error msg for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielk23 3 Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 hi ebr, still the same here, i've attached the latest crash error from the windows event logs crash2.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 That image does not exist anymore so it now has to be coming out of a cache or something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielk23 3 Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 are you using cloudflare in a caching capacity for embydata.com? Best guess they have cached the plugins information somewhere as static data, and keep returning that invalid image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundsnake8 27 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 EMC still crashing when trying to open plugin catalog ! both windows 7 and windows 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Please post the Windows event log error so we can see if it is the same thing. I don't see how it could be since that image doesn't exist anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielk23 3 Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 hi ebr attached is the latest crash report from event logs, still the same issue it appears. I've even uninstalled the chocolate theme entirely, but this made no difference. crash3.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution danielk23 3 Posted April 3, 2016 Author Solution Share Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) @@ebr just did some further investigation and traced the web traffic while loading emby for WMC I can see the following call to the emby server /mediabrowser/Packages?packagetype=UserInstalled&targetsystems=MBClassic&format=Json which returns the attached JSON data, which still includes the newchoctile.png reference. I've done a manual check for plugin updated on the server but still get the same JSON response on the WMC side When i looked at the JSON section specific to the chocolate plugin, there is a line that reads "thumbImage": "http:/embydata.com/images/newchoctile.png", Which i'm just guessing is missing a /, so somewhere along the line the package data got corrupted and that is why emby is failing to launch the package manager in WMC. trace.txt Edited April 3, 2016 by danielk23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Thanks. That was probably the problem all along as opposed to a corrupt image and I didn't notice it before. I've corrected it and we now just need to get the caches all cleared out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielk23 3 Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 thanks ebr. i did see several other plugins with a similar issue with their thumbnail image URLs in the JSON data, not sure if you saw those too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielk23 3 Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 just to confirm, the caches appear to have finally cleared, and now i've run a plugin update check on the emby server, the classic client plugin library is working once more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielk23 3 Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 spoke too soon, ebr it's now complaining about the thumb image for Backdrop Screen Saver specifically "http:/embydata.com/images/bdscreensaver.png" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 spoke too soon, ebr it's now complaining about the thumb image for Backdrop Screen Saver specifically "http:/embydata.com/images/bdscreensaver.png" It is crashing? I fixed that reference yesterday as well and my catalog opens fine now (although that particular image doesn't display). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14904 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Different machine or different sever that might still have old data cached? I cannot reproduce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielk23 3 Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Hi ebr, it was the same server, it worked last night and i pulled down and installed a pluging, today it's failing again. I've just done a refresh packages list from the server, and then relaunched the WMC client and got the attached JSON response. all i can maybe surmise is i got a different edge server from cloud flare where the cache hasn't quite expired yet this time? json data.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Not sure how that could be happening to you. Try rebooting your server... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
