Hello All,

Kodi 17 fails to load on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS following upgrade. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Kodi several times without success.
The crash log shows 3 x errors. All help much appreciated.

Move your .kodi directory out of the way: mv ~/.kodi ~/kodi-backup-16

@Sv7ter and @fritsch. Deleted the Addons27.db file. Kodi now working fine. Thanks again for your help. JohnM

Has nothing to do with this thread here. Change the youtube plugin to not use dash. You have an SSL issue.

Thank you, I just did not know what the problem is youtube plugin.

Yep works for me too. Exactly same database error being reported on startup. This will hit every ubuntu user I reckon
