Which Operating System Components you need for the new TV server?
At this moment I have "Microsoft. NET Framework 4.0" and "Microsoft Microsoft DirectX" installed.
TVE35 should create the DB in auto mode, by default current branch use MySQL (but you need to have 5.5 at least (i mean the latest version is good) not the one that comes with MP installer.
I'm experiencing some installation issues. I have tried several different ways of installing these builds (clean install; upgrade from 1.2.3). Please note that I am well aware that these builds are not end user ready. Just want to inform something that may or may not be of interest.
The problem: TV service gives installation errors during install/upgrade. (TVService.exe /install and deploy) (Windows Service Start Failure)
As far as I can see it has to do with the way this service is registered. Installutil.exe? Please see attached screen capture which says more than the installation logs.
Steps I have taken:
1) Installed MediaPortal 1.2.3 on Windows 8 x64 Virtual Machine
2) Upgraded MySQL 5.1 to 5.5
3) Confirmed that Mediaportal and TV 1.2.3 configuration works OK
4) Upgraded MediaPortal to latest build by using Win7 compatibility mode and 'Run as Administrator'.
5) Upgraded TV Server by using Win7 compatibility mode and 'Run as Administrator'. / Not OK.
Remarks: I customized OSINFO for installation on Windows 8.
Ah yes you are right, tvservice was changed to be run directly from VS2010 (in console mode) for debug etc. and then installer didn't work correctly.
To start tvservice you have to open cmd with administrative level and try the command : tvservice -console (it should start) and then setuptv can be run and tv created. Just to be sure to have a latest version of MySQL
Thanks.
It seems that I have the same issue when starting TVService (console):
Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Mediaportal.TV.Server.TVLibrary.IntegrationProvider.Interfaces, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.
