Cannot install plugins from EMBY for WMC

[kornster 5]

Hi All,

 

I`ve recently had to do a full re-install of Emby for WMC on our Media PC which also has Emby Server running on it. After completing the re-install i have attempted to access/install plugins from within WMC for Emby and am getting the error "INVALID APPLICATION, Unable to launch emby" . Ive checked and Emby is still running so im at a loss as to why im getting this error.

Try rebooting the server machine.

Hi ebr,

 

I`ve tried this several times and i get the same error over and over.

On your server machine, look in the cache folder under the server folder and delete the file "serverpackages.json".  Then re-start the server and try again.

Hi ebr, Can you point me to that folder location. Is that under "AppData" of the logged on user account?

Look on your server dashboard under "Paths".

Thanks ebr, I`ve deleted the file but i wont be able to test until tonight when im home. I cannot see WMC over VNC from work.

Hi ebr, That solved it. Tested last night and its working properly now. Much appreciated assistance.
