[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1120639, member: 109222"] Hi. I need more informations to fix this properly. When exactly did this message pops up? The line with the error did not exist in source code. It's a pity as this would make debugging a lot easier. This message only shows up the correct line when the source is running without compiling directly inside the development environment. And I can't reproduce this error here due to my regular MP2 setup, I'm having troubles to find what's going wrong. A regular start of MP2-Edit will first pops up a message box asking if it's OK to stop MP2 server. After this is positively answered a splash screen appears with three different texts on it. The first text is "Stopping MediaPortal 2 Server" the second is "Backing up the Database" and the third is "Initializing SQLite". The time how long those texts appears are different as they stay until the named step is done in background. But if you see the second text, you can be sure the first step was successful and so on,... I really need to know which step fails. I'm pretty sure this has to be early in startup process as later the SQLite connection will fail, but this don't lead to a crash, only shows a message box to tell you about the problems... As a workaround for all of you, not using default path for MP2 installation, you need to edit the attached .ini file and copy it manually into the MP2-Edit install directory, right next to MP2-Edit.exe... Then MP2-Edit hopefully should start. The value for "ini_DBFolder" must be the path to MP2 data folder, normally it's "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Server". The value for ini_BackupFolder must be set to a valid path to store the backups. Normally this is set to: "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Server\Database\Backup" I will write a function to catch those issues later.
