jds828 24 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 Getting a couple of errors and wondered if it was at the server at fault or updates not working from the Emby servers. Check for application updates failed Check for plugin updates failed Getting both for the past day or so.
jds828 24 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Posted January 12, 2016 Not sure then. I only have the collections and Mediaportal. No logo when I look in plugins on either of them. When I tried to view the catalogue it just gave the spinner.
ebr 16187 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 That is another indication that you are unable to reach our servers. Check firewall settings.
jds828 24 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Posted January 12, 2016 Checked the rules and they are in both inbound and outbound and open. I've not changed anything on the server other than moving the metadata from C: to D: and what a right royal PITA that was! The times it started was before I even started the data move though. Could it be due to Emby not being able to contact the servers for a few days? My ISP was down from Sat - Mon.
ebr 16187 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 I'd say post a log but I know what we will see. There will be a bunch of errors about not being able to get to our servers. The only question will be is it universal - meaning can you also not get out to tmdb etc. If you look in the log, pay attention to the message as to why it says you can't reach them. Is it a time-out, or a dns error or what. You may need to re-boot some things (like your router or cable interface or machine).
jds828 24 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Posted January 12, 2016 I just got on the server via http://app.emby.media/from the my works network and it's picking it up fine. I'll try changing the DNS servers when I get home and give the router a reboot. Thanks for the suggestions.
Bart91106 2 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 For the past couple of days I've received the following error: Check for plugin updates failed. 3 minutes ago Type definitions should start with a '{', expecting serialized type 'PackageInfo', got string starting with: Check for application updates failed. 3 minutes ago Type definitions should start with a '{', expecting serialized type 'PackageInfo', got string starting with: Check for plugin updates failed. 10 minutes ago Type definitions should start with a '{', expecting serialized type 'PackageInfo', got string starting with: Check for application updates failed. 10 minutes ago Type definitions should start with a '{', expecting serialized type 'PackageInfo', got string starting with: Check for application updates failed. 31 minutes ago Type definitions should start with a '{', expecting serialized type 'PackageInfo', I've restarted my modem/router to no avail.

Yes that was the error. I ended up doing a full reinstall as nothing I tried fixed it. I tried.... Firewall rules Router ports Running Emby server installer Removing the plugins And... Swearing at Emby! (last resort before reinstall)
ebr 16187 Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Try turning off all Anti-virus/anti-malware stuff. Looks like something is mangling the input.
jds828 24 Posted January 18, 2016 Author Posted January 18, 2016 I tried that ebr but with no joy. It's all done now apart from trying to sort out a bit of eye candy on the live tv icons in the home view and the https (refuses to work)
geaves 13 Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Was getting the same error but on Ubuntu, solution was the same, complete removal and reinstall.
NomadCF 15 Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Just got this error myself for the first time this morning on 1 of my Debian servers. DNS is fine and resovles. No firewall or networking setting have been chnaged in the last 72 hrs. Only thing that's chnaged is I updated this servers copy of emby to the lasted beta and my other windows servers didn't get this error last night.
Bart91106 2 Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Reinstalling the emby server worked for me. I did not uninstall the server. I simply reinstalled the server and now the errors stopped.
