ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 I had an issue with the box my collection was on, so I moved it to the same machine that that MB3 Server is running. I added the shares (UNC PATH) and now it sees the library, scans, but I can not play from the remote machines using MB Classic. I can still play one collection from a different box. Please help!
CWNashvegas 170 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Can you play from the remote machine using the Web Clent?
ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 No. I can't play that collection from the web client. I can play the older collection on a different box with the web client. I think it may be a share permissions on this new machine?
CWNashvegas 170 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Possible. Double check your shares as described here:http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/703-how-to-make-unc-folder-shares/ You can also try deleting the library.db from %appdata%\MediaBrowser-Server\Data (have to close MB Server first) and then restart and let it rebuild the library after you double-check your UNC paths.
ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 It's not UNC .. I am rebuilding the library to see if that works. This is on a Server 2012 box, any thoughts?
CWNashvegas 170 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 If rebuilding the library doesn't fix it, post a server log as described here: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/739-how-to-report-a-problem/
ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 Its rebuilding now, still can't play. I will post.

ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 Ok - Now I am getting the UNC paths error on the web client.
Luke 42077 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 there is no unc paths error in the web client. (i should know). please tell us what browser you're using and be a little more descriptive in telling us about the problem.
Luke 42077 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Also, please post one server log that contains a playback attempt. 15 logs is too many because i have no idea where to look.
CWNashvegas 170 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) I'm looking at your logs and you have more than one issue. First of all, you've got the path: \\GABSVR\Eric$ as a watched (collection) item, and it's got all kinds of stuff in it, including some paths that exceed the character limit. It's trying to read what looks like an image of your user files (documents, desktop, etc). Find the collection containing that path and remove it and rescan. Edited October 15, 2013 by Knowledge Base
ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 Version 3.0.5031.21343 Server Version. I can see all of the collection on the client (MB Classic 3.0074 (Latest version). But I can't play anything. I had a collection on a different machine that still plays, I just starting getting the UNC paths error.
ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 I changed the paths. Latest log. server-63517379528.zip
ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 That's the collection I can still watch, the collection on gabsvr2012 is the one I can't play.
CWNashvegas 170 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 That's the collection I can still watch, the collection on gabsvr2012 is the one I can't play. Hm. Okay. It's throwing errors so I looked there first. So nevermind on that then. I see problems with shortcuts maybe but Luke can help more there.
ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 Thank You !! I have been using MB forever, its always worked GREAT!
Luke 42077 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 try to setup your shares so that they don't exceed 260 characters. for example: \\GABSVR\Eric$\MY SHIT\Eric Work Files 3-2012\WD_SmartWare\46AE5BFEB0B94AC3BA56940E41E4BEF4\C_\Users\egable\Desktop\PMMCD\ServicePacks\SP2\14_0_02_Third_Party\JBOSS_PORTAL\jboss-portal-2.6.4\docs\portal\referenceGuide\html_single\images\themeguide
ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) The GABSVR shares actually work. Its the GABSVR2012 shares that I can't play. Edited October 15, 2013 by ericinsc
Luke 42077 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 well i'm happy to help but i need more concrete information besides it doesn't work, such as, when i do this, this and this, this is what happens, when instead i was expecting something else. screenshots are helpful too. also, if you could avoid zipping logs that'd be great so that i can read them in the browser.
Solution ericinsc 1 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Solution Posted October 15, 2013 Thanks for the help .. it was permissions! Always remember to make it discoverable .... duh huh moment. Thanks Again !! 1
