Configuration.exe .NET crash (1 Viewer)

[hoborg]

Hi.

No idea why, but Configuration.exe starting to crash (MePo 1.1.0,WinXP SP3).

here is what .NET say:

System.IO.IOException:

   v Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.Win32Error(Int32 errorCode, String str)
   v Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.GetValueNames()
   v MediaPortal.Configuration.Sections.GeneralDaemonTools.GetInstalledSoftware(String Search, Boolean searchLocalMachine)
   v MediaPortal.Configuration.Sections.GeneralDaemonTools.LoadSettings()
   v MediaPortal.Configuration.SettingsForm.LoadSectionSettings(TreeNode currentNode)
   v MediaPortal.Configuration.SettingsForm.SettingsForm_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)
   v System.Windows.Forms.Form.OnLoad(EventArgs e)
   v System.Windows.Forms.Form.OnCreateControl()
   v System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl(Boolean fIgnoreVisible)
   v System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl()
   v System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmShowWindow(Message& m)
   v System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m)
   v System.Windows.Forms.ScrollableControl.WndProc(Message& m)
   v System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl.WndProc(Message& m)
   v System.Windows.Forms.Form.WmShowWindow(Message& m)
   v System.Windows.Forms.Form.WndProc(Message& m)
   v System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.OnMessage(Message& m)
   v System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
   v System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

GeneralDaemonTools.GetInstalledSoftware - Daemon tools???

I tryed to reinstal Daemon tools, but no change. Remove/instal=>update Framworks 3.5 SP1 didnt help.
I didnt found anything interested in MePo LOG.

I didnt found anything iterested in MePo LOG, so i didnt include it.

Hi,

I think you know better than that

The log is always interesting, since it tells us what IS working fine, so we might be able to narrow the problem down.

So here it is.

I fixed a similar issue some time ago: 0002478: NullReferenceException when starting Configuration - MediaPortal Bugtracker

I won't have any chance to look at this for the next 3 weeks, so maybe somebody else should see the SVN log where and how I resolved it. If you can wait that long, I'll do it myself

No problem. It is crashing on PC i have at work. I am using it to test SAF.

I have edited the mantis entry to include 'fixed in version' so that this shows up in the roadmap.

Just installed MePo 1.1.1.0 - still the same crash.

I am not sure if i do not broke XML file reading ability, becouse MePo configuratio doesnot load anything from XML files i think.

 

[Maschine]

I just looked at this yesterday and I think I already fixed it. The problem is not in reading the XML files, but reading from the registry... I unfortunately ran out of time yesterday and could not test my changes. I'll post a patched 1.1.1 binary this weekend.

Sorry for the delay, but finally here is a binary for testing. This is a modified MP 1.1.1 version of configuration.exe.

Yes, this one is working.
Thanks for fixing.
