Startup crash with airport off - Lowie007 - 2008-04-11

Running ver 0.4.5

At home with airport running connected to the internet XBMC runs perfectly. Switch off the airport, no internet, XBMC fails to launch. Crashes after initial screen.

Anyone else seeing this problem? Have the crash report and XBMC.log if required to paste.

Yes please paste it.

Honestly, why even ask if you should paste it? Why not just pastbin it right away and provide the link?

As requested, hope I got it right.

The logs look great, Can you try removing ~/Library/Application Support/XBMC (create a backup if you want) and then starting up the first time with airport off? This will revert XBMC to default settings.

That fixed the problem. Got to run to work now, but I'll try to chase it up further later and narrow it down a bit more.

And thanks.

Okay, I managed to further troubleshoot this.

It isn't to do with Airport on or off. It only occurs when there is no network connection.

I traced it down to a UPnP setting.

In Application Support -> XBMC -> guisettings.xml

I found I had:
<upnp>
<client>true</client>
<musicshares></musicshares>
<pictureshares></pictureshares>
<renderer>true</renderer>
<sep1></sep1>
<server>false</server>
<videoshares></videoshares>
</upnp>

I changed it to:
<upnp>
<client>true</client>
<musicshares></musicshares>
<pictureshares></pictureshares>
<renderer>false</renderer>
<sep1></sep1>
<server>false</server>
<videoshares></videoshares>
</upnp>

and this fixed the crash on startup problem. I have no idea why it was happening, but I hope this helps someone.

And thanks again for your help.

Great job! If you can attach that to your bug ticket (and possibly change the subject) that would be really helpful!
