where is the configuration.log at? how do i use Alt.binz to download files from newsgroup if i set to download?

i have mediaportal 1.

could you check if you have a file called "myusenet.xml" in your plugins/windows directory?

If so delete it and try to configure the plugin it again.

Thank You.

I'm going to need some kind of logs to at all help you with these problems. Your logs are located, depending on what version of windows you are running, in one of these spots.

Vista - ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\Mediaportal\Log
XP - Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log

For your errors upon entering Configuration, reproduce it and attach the configuration.log. The reason you're most likely seeing the cookie error is because you haven't entered your username/password in the plugin's config.

rickyman · 2008-05-13, 18:37

this is the configuartion.log that you want to see it.

That exception you posted a screen shot of isn't being produced in these logs. Did you figure that one out already? I see that you're able to refresh your cookies based on these lines:

2008-05-13 12:28:52.988569 [Debug][Config Main]: My Usenet: Config loaded.

I'm not sure why it's telling you that they needed to be refreshed. Open up the file myusenet2.xml in mediaportal\plugins\windows and make sure that the nodes nzbsmoke and nzbsessionid both have long strings as their value. By that, I mean something along the lines of NlZBelksd89271%2FPsE456WfsMRd.

rickyman · 2008-05-13, 19:06

There is no file called myusenet2.xml I even did a seach incase it was in a different folder, but couldn't find it. Tried copying myusenet.xml from the skins folder to the plugin/windows directory and still get the msg about cookies need to be refreshed.

please help me to fix this problem. right now when i go to the usenet plugin , it got the error msg on the screen. is there to fix the error msgs.

thank you.

jburnette · 2008-05-13, 21:19

myusenet1.xml is the file, not myusenet2.xml. That was a typo.

rickyman · 2008-05-13, 21:25

there is no file called myusenet1.xml either, just one called myusenet.xml and I openned that file and the was no nzbsmoke and nzbsessionid listed.

jburnette · 2008-05-13, 21:33

Well, what was listed?
