SharpSonic - A windows front-end for Subsonic[Beta11 Jan3]

[eldanno]

And to further prove my "I´m new at this" point I forgot to include the new albumcover in the installer. New file uploaded.

I just gotta ask, is there anyone who has gotten this working?
It works on my test-machines but if no-one is using it I will delete the thread and just continue building this for myself and save me the hassle of looking like an idiot everytime I post a new version

Hiya,

After using the installer you linked and after the restart, the Sharpsonic actually started but immediately after drawing the frame for "select server", it crashed and it refused to start after this - it does not provide any information.

However, if you have the access to Microsoft Winqual, you can obtain the crash report with the following information:
(I work as software support engineer myself for my living, so this is so familiar for me to deal with these things..and I always like when someone's brave enough to try something out!)

All of this was in finnish language, so did you a favor and put it through google translate

[eldanno]

Ok, that´s the problem I was referring to in the first post. It seems as Sql CE does not like non-english versions of Windows. I have a swedish version with the same problem so I guess I´ll keep digging until I find a solution.

[HighCast]

Check if would be a charset issue. Select something which is compatible with most languages..?

[eldanno]

Could you check your AppData(dont know what this would be in finnish)
for a SharpSonicDb.sdf file. On an english version it would be:
C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\elDSoftware\SharpSonicDb.sdf
If it is missing the databasecopy failed.
There should also be a SharpSonic.log file there which might contain info about the crash.

Thanks for all your help!

[HighCast]

Check your PM

I'm having the same problem as HighCast
Win 7 Home Premium English language.

However i do run a alter net shell. SharpeEnviro
http://www.sharpenviro.com/wp/

[eldanno]

This is proving to be a pickle to solve. However my wifes computer causes the same error so at least I have something to test with.
Explicitly setting the locale of the db doesn´t seem to work so if I can´t solve it I might just script the entire db on installation and use the locale of the computer where it is being installed.

On another note SharpEnviro looks really cool, gotta try that one out

@eldanno:

Cheers, hoping you have the strength to go on with the project. Even the basic web ui is light to use, it's not as usable always as it could.

By the way, it would easen the end-users to install the product, if you include the .net framework extended installer at the installation script so that it's executed before the software itself is installed. By this, most of the issues I described at the beginning would be bypassed automatically. At least, the setup.exe should prompt if this package is to be installed or not?

Let me know if you want me to test something pre-beta4

[eldanno]

I will definitely include the installers for .net4 in the app from now on. The reason I did not do this before is that it increases the size of the installer and I wanted to keep it light-weight.

[eldanno]

Ok I´m going to replace my Sql CE 3.5 database with a newer version instead, seems as though there might be some issues with the old version that will not be fixed.

I´ll be back when it is done.

Error is the same when running the app as administrator. The exception message was read from system logs.

Thanks for the log!
I have located the source of that error and it wil be fixed in the next release.

FWIW, this seems pretty interesting and I do plan on checking it out. Just been a bit crazy lately. Thanks for your hard work!

Thanks for taking an interest!
I have had a lot of help bughunting from HighCast (thx man!) so I am feeling a bit more positive about the project again. If all goes as planned, Beta 4 should be out this weekend with local caching of albums and cover-art + some bugfixes.
