Carneth 12 Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Is it usual for the media browser server to take 10+ minutes to load? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37994 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 No, on the first startup it downloads some required components. i think you're either just on a slow connection or having connectivity issues. especially since you said the c++ installation took an hour. those are coming from regular windows updates, not us. so even your connection to microsoft is pretty slow.

Carneth 12 Posted August 2, 2014 Author Share Posted August 2, 2014 Hi there, I used to use MB 2 a while back - absolutely loved it.. Now rebuilt my HTPC and am installing - well trying to - the server component... After about 45 mins trying to download the 418kb initial installer, and then well over an hour for the C++ stuff, I finally get to what looks like the main media browser server installation I keep getting an exception being thrown, and I guess it's a timeout or something because it's happening at variable points in the installation progress (well, assuming the progress bar actually relates to something).. I've got as far as approximately 50%... Other times 0%.. I don't think the issue is my side, as I've got a reasonable internet connection and have been able to - this same evening - download 75mb files pretty fast.. I'm guessing something is up server-side, not sure though! The exception message details are "An exception occurred during a WebClient request." It would be fantastic to get MB3 up and running - it looks awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
