Unable to Load Skin - Skin is Missing Some Files - arranh - 2012-12-25 Hi, I've just reinstalled after an HDD failure, installing Frodo RC2 in WIndows 8. My previous install worked perfectly so I'm unsure as to what is happening now. Most times I try to change skin it tells me that the skin is missing some files. AeonMQ4 is the skin I'm trying to apply but it happens on several skins and, as I'm using the same skins I used previously (and downloading them from the repository) I don't believe its a skin issue. I thought maybe it is a permissions issue so I've made sure that both my user and administrator have full access to both the AppData folder and the Programfiles folder. I'll see if I can attach the log file to this, but does this sound familiar to anyone? Thanks I think the important part of the log is 21:21:34 T:4404 DEBUG: CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory (addons://all/xbmc.gui.skin/) 21:21:34 T:4404 DEBUG: ParentPath = [addons://all/xbmc.gui.skin/] 21:21:34 T:2892 NOTICE: Thread Background Loader start, auto delete: false 21:21:34 T:2892 DEBUG: Thread Background Loader 2892 terminating 21:21:35 T:4404 INFO: XCURL:llLibCurlGlobal::CheckIdle - Closing session to http://feeds.feedburner.com (easy=08085A20, multi=03D80260) 21:21:40 T:4404 DEBUG: Keyboard: scancode: 01, sym: 001b, unicode: 001b, modifier: 0 21:21:40 T:4404 DEBUG: CApplication::OnKey: escape (f01b) pressed, action is PreviousMenu 21:21:40 T:4404 DEBUG: CGUIWindowManager:reviousWindow: Deactivate 21:21:41 T:4404 DEBUG: ------ Window Deinit (AddonBrowser.xml) ------ 21:21:41 T:4404 DEBUG: CGUIWindowManager:reviousWindow: Activate new 21:21:41 T:4404 DEBUG: ------ Window Init (SettingsCategory.xml) ------ 21:21:42 T:4404 DEBUG: Keyboard: scancode: 1c, sym: 000d, unicode: 000d, modifier: 0 21:21:42 T:4404 DEBUG: CApplication::OnKey: return (f00d) pressed, action is Select 21:21:42 T:4404 DEBUG: ------ Window Init (DialogSelect.xml) ------ 21:21:42 T:4404 DEBUG: msg: PICTURE::LoadImage: Unable to open image: C:\Users\Arran\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\skin.aeonmq.4\icon.png Error: (3) 21:21:42 T:4404 ERROR: Texture manager unable to load file: C:\Users\Arran\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\skin.aeonmq.4\icon.png 21:21:43 T:4404 DEBUG: Keyboard: scancode: 48, sym: 0111, unicode: 0000, modifier: 0 21:21:43 T:4404 DEBUG: CApplication::OnKey: up (f080) pressed, action is Up 21:21:43 T:4404 DEBUG: msg: PICTURE::LoadImage: Unable to open image: C:\Users\Arran\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\skin.aeonmq.4\icon.png Error: (3) 21:21:43 T:4404 ERROR: Texture manager unable to load file: C:\Users\Arran\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\skin.aeonmq.4\icon.png 21:21:44 T:4404 DEBUG: Keyboard: scancode: 1c, sym: 000d, unicode: 000d, modifier: 0 21:21:44 T:4404 DEBUG: CApplication::OnKey: return (f00d) pressed, action is Select 21:21:44 T:4404 DEBUG: ------ Window Deinit (DialogSelect.xml) ------ 21:21:44 T:4404 ERROR: home.xml doesn't exist in skin: skin.aeonmq.4, fallback to "skin.confluence" skin 21:21:44 T:4404 INFO: Unloading old skin ... 21:21:44 T:4404 DEBUG: ------ Window Deinit () ------ 21:21:44 T:4404 DEBUG: ------ Window Deinit (SettingsCategory.xml) ------ 21:21:44 T:4404 WARNING: CGUITextureManager::Cleanup: Having to cleanup texture button-focus.png 21:21:44 T:4404 WARNING: CGUITextureManager::Cleanup: Having to cleanup texture button-nofocus.png 21:21:44 T:4404 DEBUG: CTextureBundleXBT::Cleanup - Closed bundle 21:21:44 T:4404 INFO: load skin from: C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\addons\skin.confluence (version: 2.1.2) 21:21:44 T:4404 INFO: load fonts for skin... 21:21:44 T:4404 INFO: Loading fonts from C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\addons\skin.confluence\720p\Font.xml 21:21:44 T:4404 DEBUG: POParser: PO file has Win Style Line Endings.

RE: Unable to Load Skin - Skin is Missing Some Files - Kib - 2013-07-08 Most likely you have permissions set incorrectly. What does your log say ? Please upload a debug log (wiki) RE: Unable to Load Skin - Skin is Missing Some Files - arctelix - 2015-04-03 Same issue here when installing master from zip. All the relevant info i can find in the log is here: ERROR: failed to load requested skin 'skin.amber' 13:28:30 T:13276 INFO: Unloading old skin ... 13:28:30 T:13276 DEBUG: ------ Window Deinit () ------ 13:28:30 T:13276 DEBUG: ------ Window Deinit (AddonBrowser.xml) ------ 13:28:30 T:13276 DEBUG: ------ Window Deinit (Pointer.xml) ------ 13:28:30 T:13276 DEBUG: CTextureBundleXBT::Cleanup - Closed bundle 13:28:30 T:13276 INFO: load skin from: C:\Program Files (x86)\Kodi\addons\skin.confluence (version: 2.5.12) 13:34:59 T:13060 DEBUG: Addon skin.amber requires xbmc.gui version 5.0.1 which is not available After several attempts to install i just went into deactivated addons, activated it, and then was able to successfully change to amber. RE: Unable to Load Skin - Skin is Missing Some Files - scott967 - 2015-04-03 Looks like an old version of amber? Looking at author's github, current is 2.0.12 and is calling for xbmc.gui 5.3.0, which is correct for Helix. Your log shows it was looking for 5.0.1. scott s. .
