ATV2 addon repositories coming up empty - teefer22 - 2011-12-12

Hi,

I'm having a problem with my xbmc on ATV2, running a nightly from Dec 8th. The problem is when I go to add a new addon, all my addon repository's are empty. I don't get an error in XBMC, but they come up empty. This happens with every repository i've added (bluecop's, t0mm0's, etc)

I was running a nightly from mid November when I first noticed this, I updated to the latest nightly a few days ago to see if it would resolve the issue, but it didn't.

In my xbmc.log file with debugging turned on, i'm getting a bunch of errors like this:
18:25:27 T:136916992 ERROR: GetAddon failed on addon repository.t0mm0
18:25:27 T:136916992 ERROR: SQL: The database disk image is malformed
Query: select id,version from addon where addonID='repository.passion.xbmc.org'
18:25:27 T:136916992 ERROR: GetAddon failed on addon repository.passion.xbmc.org

18:25:27 T:136916992 ERROR: SQL: The database disk image is malformed

Here is my full xbmc.log with debugging enabled:

I should note that my existing addons are all still working but I can't update any of them or install any new ones.

Anyone have any idea's what's going on or how to fix it?

This has happened a couple of times to me in the last month, I don't know why but the addons db gets corrupted so I just delete the databases related to the addons located in /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/Database and XBMC will recreate them (including downloading info from repos) on the next restart

You only need to delete the addons DB. You don't need to delete the other databases in this case.

Deleting the addons.db and Addons15.db worked, thanks for the tip.

How exactly do you delete the add ons ?
Do I use Terminal etc. or something in XBMC?



RE: ATV2 addon repositories coming up empty - Ned Scott - 2012-05-31

terminal or Cyberduck.

for terminal ssh in and do
Code:
rm /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata/Databases/Addons15.db
