WebEPG doesnt generate tvguide.xml (1 Viewer)

[Goose21]

Hey Folks!

I´ve got a question regarding the tvguide.xml

WebEpg is doing its work.... its gathering information from the web.

But after nearly 5 Minutes the tvguide-writing.xml still persists although webepg already quit.

The generated tvguide-writing.xml is missing an end....
i can watch it in notepad etc... but browsers say unexpected end of document....

has anyone had similar problems?

please help.

There is a webepg.log created when running WebEPG. Try checking that out to find a clue.

such a stupid mistake

It was a security problem.... rights on that directory weren't set appropriately....

I would not say its a stupid mistake, because MP should come up and tell you that instead of just quit!

An no-avanced user could not posible find this error if not mp tells

Having a similar problem, have mapped my channels in WebEPG config, but when running webepg.exe it creates a tvguide-writing.xml file but this is only 2 kb and doesnt go away and no tvguide.xml file is created.

This is using TVE3.. Anyone?

Please provide info from the log file. What error message is given, etc.

I had this problem when not mapping every channel or when I had a merged mapping but I didn't fill in the times...

 

[WebKnight]

THDBASED: I haven't mapped all my channels yet, will try that.

Thanx for the advice!



actually after a looong while the tvguide.xml file was created and I had EPG in MP, now only need to find out why it takes so long to complete.

Creating the tvguide.xml took almost 30 min, but from what I can see from the log it seems like the site www.sol.no is the thing slowing the process down..

Taken from the logfile..

EDIT 4: That was the case indeed, changed to another website and the scanning took under 2 min.

Thanx for all your help

Similar problem. webepg works away generates an error for every program from 20min.ch;

Radio times, etc works fine but 20min has problems.

sometimes it doesn't finish writing the tvguide.xml.
Log file only shows the errors described above.
