Unable to save fanart manually

[brewston]

Hiya

I recently installed BMT since upgrading to Sage v7. I'd previously had some fanart under v6 via Phoenix/SageMC, so I already had a fanart directory configured.

The auto lookups (For shows which exist in thetvdb.com) were failing, so I try to just provide the URL. This fails too, I get a broken image icon. The log file shows :

The e: drive, which is a local drive not a network mount, is where Sage records to, so it has permission to write to it

Any ideas ?

Thanks

I just tried the tvdb url that caused your error on my system, and it worked fine. I'm not sure why it would fail. If it only fails sometimes, for some urls, then it might be a remote site issue (ie, tvdb failed for some reason), but if it's failing all the time, then I'm at a loss.

Is this a fresh sage7 install, or un upgrade? If it's an upgrade, are you using the bmt plugin? Did you clean out the old bmt jars before upgrading, etc.

Yes, an upgrade from 6.6 - What's the best way to start fresh with bmt ? Uninstall the plugin, clear out the jar files and re-install the plugin ?

I would uninstall bmt web ui plugin (if you installed it in Sage7), and then find the sticky in this sub forum about upgrading from 6 to 7. That should get you started

[brewston]

Edit - I went back in to plugin manager and the option to remove was there !

Yes I installed it with plugin manager, but when I click on it (plugin id - bmtweb) it says :

"No installation options are currently available for this plugin"

Close|View Plugin Details|View Screenshot

So how do I remove it ? Sorry if this is a FAQ, I'm a new the plugin manager

Thanks

Make sure you are looking in the Currently Installed Server or Client Plugins. Not All Plugins

Gerry

[brewston]

That must have been it, I filtered it 2nd time to see if I'd missed a different plugin

[brewston]

OK did all that and i have the same problem (and a new one :-) - the 'views' from the left side of the browser window have all disappeared, all I have is 'All views' which brings up a popup when clicked on)

Anything else I can scrub out of jars ? The oldest file in there is dated 2005 (jdic) my phoenix is recent though (2 days ago)

Thanks

Refresh of VFS & Mediatitles.xml fixed this (Not sure which I did them both one after the other )

Found this post :

http://forums.sagetv.com/forums/show...3&postcount=23

and removed jsp-2.1.jar

Its working now

Cheers
