    Hi folks,

    I just upgraded my MediaPortal box from version 1.8 to version 1.10. After the upgrade, Mediaportal failed to start. I get this error message:

    TvPlugin and MediaPortal don't have the same version.
    Please update the older component to the same version as the newer one.

    MediaPortal version 1.10.0
    TvPlugin Version 1.8.0.0

    Any suggestions?

    Kind regards,
    Frank

    Problem solved. I tried to run the installation executable again and choose the reinstall option. That didn't work. Same error. However the upgrade option solved the issue.

    Regards,

    8 years later I had the same problem upgrading from 1.29 to 1.30 - and the same solution worked :)
    Problem was caused by tvservice permissions being messed up so the installer could not stop the service - fixed by a neat little program called ServiceSecurityEditor - I set INTERACTIVE and SERVICE to allow stop/start, then the installer could stop the service correctly and the "upgrade" process completed.
    On an unrelated note I run against a local sqlserver and finally worked out why the tvservice was not starting correctly - fixed by making a dependency from tvservice to the sqlexpress database to ensure it was available when it was needed, with this command:
    sc config "TVService" depend= Netman/SQLBrowser/MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS
