Wizard keeps crashing at step 5/7 (1 Viewer)

[ERiQ]

Hi guys,

First off, i want to say MediaPortal rocks! Keep up the good work.

Please excuse me for creating a new topic, but i couldn't find another one decribing the same problem i have. I installed MediaPortal a few days ago and it worked fine for me! At one point, i decided to re-configure the tv channels because i screwed up the order. The easiest way was to re-download the config for my region (The Netherlands, UPC Leeuwarden). It worked fine before, but when i tried the wizard crashed.

First, i thought it might be a problem with my install. I completely uninstalled and reinstalled MP. It still crashed. After that i uninstalled MP, uninstalled .NET Framework 1.1 + SP1, uninstalled my hauppauge drivers, booted, reinstalled the drivers like usual, reinstalled NET Framework 1.1, reinstalled MP, and guess what.. Yes, it still crashed. Tried the same but now also installed .NET Framework 2.0. Also, that didn't help.

It's always at the same step, 5/7, just after scanning for media.

Is there anyone who has a fix, or knows what is the source of this error? It's with both RC1 as with the RC2 release. I'm pretty sure it isn't my card (Hauppauge PVR500MCE) because that still works fine with other apps. Also, i didn't make any (big) systemchanges.

Here's the errorlog i got:

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Hope someone can enlighten me!



Kind regards,

Erik

The same for me. It was working well be one day, I don't remember exactly what I did, but since that day I have always this error message at the same step as you.
I removed MP and try to reinstal MP 0.1.3, doesn't work, 0.2 RC1, doesn't work, last CVS build, doesn't work ... always the same. I removed my PVR150 to try with a PCTV310i ... always the same.
Don't know what to do.

Please help us,
Thanks a lot.

btw thanks for that great thing that is MP. Hope to be able to use RC2 soon.

DTD Markup not FOUND...

Hi All,

I just installed 1.3.0 base..first time wizards configured generated same error complaint right after scaning for media. when hitting next...I am offered a choice to continue and if I do so, I am able to finish the Wizards.

I thought...ok, maybe I am missing something...I went and read up on xmltv and decided to upgrade to the latest .53 I want to say (sorry, at work now but pretty sure this was the version??)...anyway, goto my Zap2it line-up going and imported, no problem...retested Wizrd..."same DTD markup not found error". I then applied the 8-26-2005 cvs snap shot to my install, ran start.bat to reg the dll's etc...and then ran configure (or setup program) and went back and updated my program guide for xmltv...ran Wizard again and still errors....

I have googled and looked here...I am at a loss.

I am running XP SP2 with .net framework plus service patches and have all OS patches in place.

Inside MP 1.3.0 + cvs, I have a working program guide and setups menus...it seems to be working (mostly) but I would like to know the cause of the failure?

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Regards,

Mike

OK...I googled some more based on the error stack.

Looks like this is due to the Wizrad app trying to work with XmlTextReader object ???

Anyway....it seems we aren't the only people hitting this...others trying to access RSS streams have seen this also.

I found the following which may (or may not) be of help:

the search continues.

Bueller?...anyone??

 

[Brocklander]

Not sure if it's related, but when I didn't have an internet connection the Wizard died with a .net error, as it was trying to connect to the website to get the latest channel lists. Connected to the internet and it ran through it fine...

That's what i thought too, at first, but i'm allways connected without a firewall or any other restrictions.

Guess what: I got it to work! Not through the wizard though, but during the normal setup. When i clicked 'lookup' under 'television' before, it would crash. Now i just imported all my channels again, without any pain!

I just deleted some files under my profile directory. Not sure wich did the trick, but here's what i did:

Start -> Run -> %userprofile% (hit enter). I deleted:
capturecards.xml
CompiledAdapter
MediaPortal.xml

Re-ran the configuration.exe file, wich gave me the normale setup procedure instead of the wizard, clicked television, clicked lookup and got all my channels back. Hope this helps!
