EPG fails to update
For a few weeks, the EPG keeps showing the red icon on the WMC main page.
I have both server and client on the same PC, latest version, Windows 7.
I have tried various fixes proposed on another thread and I get the green symbol for that day, but next day is red again.
I didn't change anything in the Task Scheduler, it used to work before.
Any ideas?

There should be something in the trace.log file to describe the error. That will help.SoNic67 wrote:For a few weeks, the EPG keeps showing the red icon on the WMC main page.

Well, I just run again the Task Scheduler and I got those lines added to the log:
I have a SD HD HomerRun Prime and a SD OTA Quatro as tuners, that's why two lineups.
The icon is still the Red x.[10/20/2018 12:31:26 PM] ===============================================================================

Does it just end there? There is nothing following the "Downloaded 1612 daily schedules"?

You need to delete your current task and create a new one. Starting with the error:
This means your scheduled task is importing and MXF file that is over 23 days old. Looking at the file you are importing per the task:
This is not the default location of the MXF file with the latest versions of EPG123; this is the old location. You can see where the new file is saved:
So that is it. Delete your current scheduled task and create a new one. I'll have to find a method for the program to detect this condition....
Code: Select all
[10/20/2018 12:50:57 PM] [ERROR] The MXF file imported is 562.51 hours old.
Code: Select all
[10/20/2018 12:43:36 PM] Entering importMxfFile() for file "C:\epg123\epg123.mxf"
Code: Select all
[10/20/2018 12:43:32 PM] [ INFO] Completed save of the MXF file to "C:\epg123\output\epg123.mxf".

Thanks!
I have re-created the schedules and I'm rebuilding the file now.

Is it safe to say that "delete old task, save, exit, launch, re-create task, save" is troubleshooting step #1 if something suddenly goes wrong?
Or if something goes wrong after installing a new version?

I just released v1.2.6 which addresses this complication of changing the mxf file location. It will now still work if the old task is not deleted and a new one is not created.
I would say that all troubleshooting should start with looking at the trace.log file. Not all problems are due to the scheduled task.

Thank you again, it still works obviously. But now, the green symbol has a green + next to it. What's that for?

The plus sign means there is an update available. I just released v1.2.6 yesterday....

I am trying to update to version 1.28.10 and the installer is stuck at "Creating directories...". Computer is very sluggish to respond.
Any ideas?

Yah, I think I may have an idea. What version are you upgrading from?
I had moved some file/permission tasks onto the installer hoping that would avoid some problems later, but I have seen it slow the install down. I believe what it is doing is looking at all the files in your epg123 folder to include the cached files... may take some time.

It was from 2.15... I have left it on all night and it did finished. But then it was a red X in the WMC, so now I did "Save & Execute". Hopefully that will do.

Well, didn't plan for that. This is just a friendly check/compare of the location of the file running to the location of the file in the task. I want to make sure they are the same... evidently didn't plan on quotation Mark's throwing the compare off.SoNic67 wrote:I have updated again to the 1.20 version and I got this notification that I don't understand:
The files are obviously the same, so you dont need to do anything. Does your client do the same thing? Did you modify your task to include the quotes?

I think you're right. I won't be able to fix this until the weekend, though.
