I am trying to get RC2 to work with a mysql DB, the DB is correctly setup and populated with databases, I cannot however get xbmc on osX to parse the sources.xml file or read any file or folder in specil:

log output;

Code:

despite these settings and the sources.xml file being world readable (exported using all_Squash, anonuid and anongid) xbmc does not read the sources.xml file, not other log entries could be found.

trying to access : /Users/jan/Library/Application Support command line does not work since it needs to be escaped like: /Users/jan/Library/Application\ Support
but I don't know if this is part of the problem

Any ideas?

Update: for anyone else trying this, the NFS-share needs to be exported with the option "insecure" as osX allways assumes that port >1024 for nfs, simply changing this made it possible for xbmc to access the profile folders, it however still does not parse the sources.xml, and no log output is given

I have used NFS shares and there was no issue with the sources.xml being parsed using Frodo RC-2. Are you saying that you could not add new sources when using NFS shares?

figured it out, there was a missing </source> in the sources.xml, must have edited it by mistake, strangely any error in formatting causes xbmc to fail silently, if you input an invalid value you get an error message, but not if you have incorrect formatting.

Winestock I was using path substitution in advancedsettings to relocate the sources.xml file to an NFS file share
