Hi, im getting errors on every plugin i install.
"Python Script Failed". special://home/plugins/programs/Launcher/default.py

That was obviously with launcher. I've tried adding manually to the sources.xml, adding to plugins etc. All give the same results. I've tried VideoMonkey Launcher and XBMC Zone Installer, all with the same issues.

I've tried using xbmcs latest svn built, 8.10 atlantis and 9.04. All manually compiled on debian 5.

Ideas?

thanks

python installed?

other than that, please post a Debug Log so we can see what is happening.

yeah pythons installed, 2.5 & 2.4. Installed 2.4 for the sake of it just before as only 2.5 was installed. Can't find anything usefull in the log either ...

maybe this is relevant?


thanks

post the entire Debug Log (on pastebin.ca or simular site) then link it here.

You have quite a few "cant create dir" and "Unable to create thumbfile" messages, ImportErrors... looks like is not able to load Python?! Built on Apr 3 2009...

Im seeming to have same issue since moving to T3CH XBMC 2009-05-09 9.04-Babylon.
Where can I find Python?
Ive never had issues with plugins except when they became broke due to web site changes.
When I try to run SVN installer my xbox reboots.

@blittan: look up, i think thats the entire debug log i linked to on pastebin?

If dan dare is having issues on his xbox....fault of xbmc?

http://pastebin.com/m1698ad79 <<newer log after some more use. Making the errors come up etc.

knk1990, please upgrade to a more recent version of XBMC and report back if the issue still exists.

as i said vdrfan, i've tried with the current svn version. I'll reinstall it and post a log. I just like running stable

edit:
why am i getting this after i make uninstall. and then make install the svn version?

Log location states its an oldish build. Much changed since we moved the logs to the users home.

I think this might be related to an issue I just discovered.

When trying to install a plugin I got the exact same error. I investigated the debug log output, this is the interesting line:

14:50:08 T:2877234064 M:863309824 DEBUG: Process - Setting the Python path to /home/xbmc/.xbmc/plugins/programs/Launcher:/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/python24.zip;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python24.zip;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python2.4/;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python2.4/plat-linux2;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python2.4/lib-tk;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload

Look carefully, the first path separator is wrong! ':' vs ';'

I have tracked the bug to this file:

http://trac.xbmc.org/browser/trunk/XBMC/...Thread.cpp

But can't go any further since I'm not familiar with the codebase. Line 163 is where the message is from.

Looks like I'm on revision 19455, the file I point to has not changed since 19054, but the error may be elsewhere.

Hope this helps.

im so stupid lol. sorry about that. I've found the right log now

I'm experiencing the exact same errors with the latest svn builds (i compiled it yesterday, r20873), none of the plugins and scripts are working.
I think this happens since the external libraries option is added to svn?

Anyway, in my log i see the same error in path ( : instead of ; )

I'm have this exact same problem also, so far the iplayer and SVN Repo Installer plug-ins are the only ones that work!

I have same problem on SVN built on June 1st.

I see in my log I have same problem as described above with the separator for the path:

/home/xbmc/.xbmc/plugins/programs/Launcher:/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/python24.zip;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python24.zip;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python2.4/;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python2.4/plat-linux2;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python2.4/lib-tk;/usr/share/xbmc/system/python/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload

First path is separated by a ":" while the rest by ";". Maybe this could be the reason?
