The importer in config hangs between "Fan Art" and "UserRatings" (1 Viewer)

[RoChess]

Could be TheTVdB changed keys for some users for whatever reason. Or you had like an extra space copied along at the end and it was ignored all this time, but now it freaked out.

At least you got it fixed, in the end that's all that matters

Please dont use 'API Key', its the account identifier....API Key is something different and is project related not user related. Anyway, I think you did you just used the incorrect term...but its confusing none the less

Typically you will not have an APIKey unless your the owner of a project that uses the TVDb API.

sorry, you are right, it was the 'Account Identifier' that I re-entered. However - tonight the problem has reoccurred. The config window just freezes

Cannot move, drag, resize the window. Cancel button does not work. The only way to recover is to kill it in Task Manager.

Help! I have attaced the log again just in case

The one error I see in screenshot that is extremly dangerous is that the log file can not be acessed because it is in use by another process.

So you are either running MP-TVSeries config with MediaPortal + MP-TVSeries plugin running in background, or the config was not closed properly before you started it again. Check your taskmanager process list otherwise to make sure.

But the problem is that the moment that situation occurs, you can corrupt the database as well to the point where you have to delete it and start over from scratch.

definately no other processes running in the background and definately closed properly before running MP-TV config. In fact, I have already tried stopping MP from starting automatically, rebooting PC and launching config - that rules out any other process
Also, I have just run an import again, and it completed fine, even with a couple of process errors. I dont understand what could be locking the log file - the only process that accesses it is MP-TV config. I dont even run AV on my HTPC
