Error adding Movies Path

[Thunder7]

Been looking for a nice front end for my HTPC, and came across this software, however when I try to add the path to my movies during the setup, i get the following error that I need a little help with to figure out what is going on.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** 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.

Make sure you have the .net framework installed first.

I'll remove and reinstall again, but I do have .NET 3.0 installed.

[lar282]

Wes I don't think XL will start without .net.

What is the path? Is it on the local machine or a unc path?

what if u type in a c:\temp (must exist), does it work then?
Where are u typing in the path? In the F2 setup or in the installer? If installer, try to leave it blank and then when XL has started, hit F2 and set the paths in there instead

What OS are u using and are u a admin on the lgged on computer?

Lasse,


Read my post I stated that it needs the .Net framework, we have noticed on some installs even if your system shows .net installed sometimes the install is not complete or in some cases the machine needs to be rebooted. On several xLobby machines we have had to re-install the .net 3.0 framework again and then xLobby runs fine.

Thunder7, reinstall the .net 3.0 framework again.

Sorry Wes, didn't mean it that way. Of course .net install can blow up. U are absolutely right. What I didn't know was that XL v2 needed .net 3? If u look at the crash it only reveals .net 2

I had this same problem. I simply edited the raw xml file to include the paths I wanted. When I imported it threw an error, but I hit continue. I haven't had the error occur again, and I've added more paths through the gui since then. Might try this if nothing else works.

[lar282]

I am confused about the version of xlobby he is running. I know Assembly version is not the same as File version but still. 1.0 is really low isn't it?

xlobby2
Assembly Version: 1.0.2613.31320
Win32 Version: 1.0.2613.31320
CodeBase: file:///C:/Program%20Files/xlobby/xlobby2.exe

My xlobby shows
Assembly Version("2.0.8144.17")]



//Lasse

[mememe]

I'm using the 9/06 build of xlobby2.

shows as version 1.0.2447.36020 for both the assembly and build



I'm guessing that is what he is looking at. I thought mine was the last free version released. Is there a newer one?

[Marbles_00]

I thought mine was the last free version released. Is there a newer one?

The last free version was Feb.26/07, you can download from either my xlobby help pages (link from my google pages), or from Sharp's help pages (he's got more versions)

[lar282]

ha ha ha.really my badI did not see that this post was in the freeware section.Sorry.

Still try what Marbles suggested.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm getting it now.

Exactly the same with me.
