[solved]"Update 2009-02-13 22765 "

[ccoudsi]

Last night I updated my core from "Update 2010-02-10 22758 " to "Update 2009-02-13 22765" when I rebooted the system it got stuck at the prompt "Starting Core Services. Please be patient", looking at the DCErouter.log it looks the DCErouter died after loading the Game player plugin???

Any ideas what can cause the problem, I disconnected all the MDs from the router and the core still gets stuck in the same place??

Update:
Webadmin is ok
KDE desktop is Ok

Today I updated my core to the latest version, I didn't get any errors during the upgrade, but it didn't solve my problem

Looking at kern.log I noticed the following:

Code: [Select]

Any clues on how to debug this??

[ccoudsi]

Ok, I found the problem not sure how to fix it.
Few days ago I updated my core so I can install Hulu Player, so I installed it via the webadmin similar to adding game player, and it did not work so I deleted the device which is device 111, for some reason it is still there entry as  "Hulu plugin", it did not get deleted.

What is the best way to remove this "Hulu plugin" entry  from the database, I assume "pluto_main" which table??

Here's the error from DCErouter error log

Code: [Select]

01 02/15/10 19:00:06.853 Got a device 111 with wrong device template 2021 <0xb6cff6c0>

Please see the attached image.

After few days of hard work I fixed my core  :

I removed the device "111" from the pluto_main/Device table, and I got back my core.

*****************PLEASE DO NOT INSTALL "HULU PLAYER" it will crash your system. *********************

It is not ready to be used yet.

dude, Update your DCE and Designer sqlCVS tables. Those are the wrong device entries. They have already been fixed. Please do not spout off at the mouth that stuff is broke, when it's not.

Thom -
Is the latest Hulu player installation procedure documented clearly somewhere?

[ccoudsi]

Thom,
I did update DCE and Designer sqlCVS tables, and it did not work on 2/13/2009, I also added the missing "Hulu_Plugin.so"

[tschak909]

simply selecting

• Hulu Player from the media director software modules page should do the trick.

I had to ask possy to rebuild the hulu_plugin.so due to the device template change, but other than that, the whole thing has been stable.

-Thom

[ccoudsi]

Thanks Thom, I will try to install it again.
The reason I installed it manually because l didn't see on Saturday the entry for "Hulu Player from the media director software modules page", that's why I went and updated all "DCE, Designer sqlCVS tables", and all my MD's, and I added the "hulu_plugin.so"

[jimbodude]

I did not realize that was ready... I would have tried it already.

So to clarify - the current installation procedure is:
1) apt-get update
2) apt-get upgrade
3) sqlCVS update DCE and Designer
4) Add "Hulu Player" from "Add Software"

Is that correct, Thom?  I'm not sure I know what you mean by "software modules page".

[jimbodude]

Ah, of course... Web Admin --> Wizard --> Devices --> Media Directors, Software Modules --> Edit.

There is no "Hulu Player" listed in there.  Do I need to add the Hulu Plug-in device to DCERouter, or any of the deb packages?

[tschak909]

Add Software is deprecated, and will no longer be used.

And you're making it too hard...

Update sqlcvs... select the DCE and Designer repositories.

Go to web admin->wizard->Media Directors... find the appropriate media director, select [Edit] from Software modules, check

• Hulu Player.

Done.

Add Software is deprecated, and will no longer be used.

That's what I thought.

Update sqlcvs... select the DCE and Designer repositories.

Go to web admin->wizard->Media Directors... find the appropriate media director, select [Edit] from Software modules, check

• Hulu Player.

Tried that - no Hulu Player listed.

[tschak909]

it's there. I promise. You need to update your sqlCVS to be able to see it.

-Thom

[jimbodude]

Updated twice.  DCE and Designer.  Hulu Player is still not in the list...
