I have a few questions 1. Where do I find the info on how to access the location of said repo's
2. How do I delete said repo's after locating them.
I appreciate any and advice.
Thank you in advance.

Open 'Home' folder
Select .xbmc
Select 'addons'
You will find the repositories in that folder
Click 'file' - 'create new folder' - rename it to something like 'repos_old' - then move the affected repos into that
(this way once fix is implemented you can move them back)

Its an issue between how Linux and its XBMC handles how repos on Github get redirected. For some reason on Linux it cannot handle this, so it crashes.

Anyway, a workaround for now is to move all the repos that are causing issues to a new folder, and wait until they get updated. They are slowly getting updated already. I count 3 of my 18 that I use already updated their repos to work properly.


RE: XBMC Crashed once and then kept crashing - DEcosse - 2014-03-21

Summary -
It's Github's issue that those repos can't be accessed remotely;
It's NOT XBMC's responsibility to be able to deal with 3rd party access however - it's up to those 3rd parties to have their repos in an accessible. format/location - whether that be hosted somewhere else, or resolving with Github.
However I would suggest you would hope XBMC would consider this an issue that the Linux systems CRASH as result of how that response is handled.

Github has apparently been dealing with ddos attacks, how they are handling it may be whats causing to XBMC to lose ability to access repos

(2014-03-21, 12:26)Kib Wrote: Workaround
- You can identify the repositories that cause the crash by navigating to your addons folder and using:

Code:
find . -name 'addon.xml' -exec grep -Hn github {} \; | grep raw

- Remove or move those folders out of the way and remove the Addons16.db from your userdata.
- Restart XBMC

Update: preliminary findings seem to suggest something going wrong in libgnutls when it tries to work with the server certificate from https://raw.githubusercontent.com
This problem with github is also affecting wget on raspbian and causing the rpi-update script to fail. When the problem first occurred yesterday the raw github URL's were just returning an http error, the URL's were working again this afternoon but wget (run as part of rpi-update) is still failing. It looks like an update to wget included an updated version of GNU TLS which is causing the problem. See the following thread:

http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=72587&p=523194

As GNU TLS was recently found to have a certificate verification flaw very similar to Apples recent goto fail, it seems possible that the fix has exposed an error with the way the github SSL certificate is set up and the certificate no longer passes the checks, OR that a crashing bug was introduced in GNU TLS in the process of fixing the security flaw.

Is GNU TLS loaded by XBMC as a dynamic shared library on Linux ? If so we may need to wait for that library to be fixed/updated.


RE: XBMC Crashed once and then kept crashing - MMeirolas - 2014-03-21

question:

i did a reinstall of xbmc on my linux system
installed some default addons from the wizard.
everything was stable until i was forcing updates on those repositories

are those wizard addons also github related or was it just a timed out end of the "disable/enable" internet fix?


RE: XBMC Crashed once and then kept crashing - teeedubb - 2014-03-21

Should be sorted now: https://github.com/teeedubb/teeedubb-xbmc-repo/raw/master/repository.teeedubb/repository.teeedubb-1.0.1.zip

Users will probably have to manually update.

nope. as soon as i force update on any repository (including the one u just posted) xbmc crashes

I opened a ticket since it is usually the best way to get issues addressed: http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/15033

This ticket is specifically for the addon repo update crashing XBMC. If you have log files feel free to post them with the open ticket.


RE: XBMC Crashed once and then kept crashing - bossanova808 - 2014-03-21

He means for his repo if you manually download and install that - not that the general issue is fixed...

@drivesoslow - maybe edit your first post with the latest info, trac link, and maybe even links to corrected repos? teedubs is jsut above, mine is available at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808/repository.bossanova808-0.1.9.zip

...could help a lot of searchers. And maybe thread title 'XBMC crashing on github repo update' or similar??


XBMC closes as soon as I open it on Ubuntu 13.10 - mlrtym00 - 2014-03-21

Hi, I have been using XBMC with no issues, then today when I went to open it, it closes instantly, I am unable to access anything as it closes within 2 seconds. Any sugestions would be great.

Here is a copy of my most recent crash log...

@mlrtym00 remove that log file from your post and use a log posting service: http://xbmclogs.com/

To get into XBMC either delete the repo causing the issue or unplug the network cable from your media center


If you do not have debugging enabled in XBMC the crash log will not show the repo trying to update

Heh, and if it crashes within 2 seconds you dont have enough time to turn debugging on.
You have to manually move the "repository." folders to another folder. Then it will start and your able to turn debugging on. Next, put the folders back. Restart XBMC, let it crash, and get the log

I have a few questions 1. Where do I find the info on how to access the location of said repo's
2. How do I delete said repo's after locating them.
I appreciate any and advice.
Thank you in advance.

Open 'Home' folder
Select .xbmc
Select 'addons'
You will find the repositories in that folder
Click 'file' - 'create new folder' - rename it to something like 'repos_old' - then move the affected repos into that ok
(this way once fix is implemented you can move them back)
I guess where my newbie knowledge comes undone as my home folder (linux mint 16) does contain xbmc folders infact finding out where my program folder are is just not possible.
Thank you for the tips will keep looking
