I'm stuck with a problem I can't get my head around.
Currently I'm running XBMC alpha 5 on my ATV2 with a shared library using MySQL. (xbmc_music27 / xbmc_video68)

I would like to upgrade to a more recent build, because I've built "xbmcserver" as described here.

But for some strange reason my ATV refuses to start into the GUI as soon as I enable the shared library in advancedsettings.xml
As far as I can tell it's stuck at 'updating the databases'

19:42:03 T:105926656 NOTICE: Running database version Addons15
19:42:03 T:105926656 DEBUG: Initialize, updating databases...
19:42:03 T:105926656 NOTICE: Running database version ViewModes4
19:42:03 T:105926656 NOTICE: Running database version Textures13

It even restarts after I while; but I was unable to find any crashlogs in the system.

Those are the final entries in my logging of A7.

I tried starting from scratch on A7, rebuilding my library locally, then converting to shared libs; but to no avail.
I ditched the <name> tag for the database, but that didn't help either.

Maybe there's something obvious I've missed? Must be some kind of user error, because I haven't read about such problems before.

Dug a little deeper today and was able to create CrashReporterLogs;

here they are for alpha 6.

Hope that helps.

Thx for the report. It seems like a build issue on our side. libmysqlclient seems to be built for the wrong deployment target. You are running iOS 4.2.1 (which should be compatible) but libmysqlclient seems to be built against something newer.

Will try to get a solution for this (i think you don't wanna update the atv2 ios version).

[RudolfR]

Thanks for looking into it. I'd prefer not to upgrade my iOS, but it's something I could look into.
It's been a while since I've jailbroken the device and I'd rather not end up with a less performant iOS version.

[RudolfR]

Tried the latest nightly (xbmc-20121106-a645762-master-atv2.deb) and it works fine.

I hope you figure out how to solve this permanently, but I'm good for now. :-)

[Memphiz]

Nahh thats only the poor mans solution for now. But it will stick until after frodo release for sure. Maybe i can utilise you once more in a couple of mins for testing one more build (now i'm curious when apple started to break our builds - obviously its on ios 5 sdk and on ios 6 sdk - i wanna know if its on ios 4.3 sdk broken already). Stay tuned if you are still with me.

[Memphiz]

Here we go - could you test this version:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/30371861/org.xb...pu2gpu.deb

and if it crashs - please post the crashlog once more. After that i leave you alone with your working nightlies

[RudolfR]

Sure, will try that tonight (GMT+1) and report back.

[RudolfR]

It crashed. (Tried twice)

Syslog that covers both (and some sabnzbd crap I thought I'd gotten rid off...)

I hope this is helpful to you.
If you need me to test anything else, don't hesitate to ask.

[Memphiz]

thx interesting indeed - the crashes are different now. Well it might be that we have to lift the minimum required ios version for xbmc to 4.3 due to this wonkiness after frodo. We'll see what time brings...
