[slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
Since I've upgraded from Squeezecenter 7.0.1 to 7.1 it won't start anymore. It worked once but the next day, after a reboot, the icon in the system tray keeps saying that Squeezecenter is starting. But it never completes. No visible errors. Then I tried to start it from the command line and this was the answer: [08-08-06 14:01:22.9167] Slim::Utils::MySQLHelper::startServer (272) Warning: Couldn't install MySQL as a service!

I got an installation error about "Could not create file that already exists". I looked into the directory and it was empty so no idea where this message came from. But I couldn't install it to the default location so I changed the location to c:\Program Files\Squeezecenter71. Install went fine but it still won't start. Anyone can help?

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
I've got exactly the same problem. I was running 7.0.1 and though I'd upgrade to 7.1 to see if that solved the problem. Guess what. It didn't. Why do Logitech have so many issues. I upgraded to the Squeezebox Duet from the Wireless DJ because the WDJ packed up totally. Now I've got this problem. I could scream Can anyone help before I package this thing up and ship it back!

Hi, Have you done this? Does it work? If so, do I delete the entire folder named 'cache' in the SqueezeCenter folder or just certain elements of it? Not sure.

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
You can delete the entire folder, it rebuilds when you start SC again. Oh do like this STOP SC delete cache START SC, then it will automatically start a rescan (as you no longer have any dB etc) so web Ui can be a litle slow to show, as the machine is busy scanning. -- Mnyb Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50754 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
I've tried this and re-started SC. I opened task manager to see the application start up. It gets to around 99,000k (usually runs in excess of 100,000k when working properly) and then disappears from task manager. SC fails to run. Any other suggestions? I have tried un-installing 7.1 and re-installing it.

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
I have the same problem on a Squeeze Box duet using a Dell Insperion laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium, 32 bit. Had no problem with old version of SqueezeCenter on my desktop PC, but with version 7.1 it will not load on my laptop. I tried a factory reset of my controller and had no luck. I also tried a full uninstall and reinstall. I am able to connect to squeezecenter on line, but the handset cannot find my PC as a server because squeezecenter never loads. Any ideas?

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
I had exactly the same issue on Vista Ultimate when upgrading from 7 to 7.1 and was only able to resolve it by completely uninstalling 7, rebooting, then installing 7.1. I have to say my heart sinks whenever I upgrade Squeezecentre (and, previously, Slimserver) as I have found it to be the most troublesome software to upgrade I have. Having said that, it's usually rock solid once it's working correctly.

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
Found this thread after experiencing the same problem yesterday. Apparently "MySQL" was corrupted. I uninstalled 7.01 but the old MySQL folder wasn't removed. When I tried installing 7.1 (using folder Squeezecenter), the old MySQL folder still caused problems (Squeezecenter wouldn't start). I re-installed 7.1 using a new destination folder (e.g. Squeezecenter1) and it worked fine. I can't remove the old folder no matter what I try. I'm also using Vista on a Dell Inspiron. -- r3w2000 r3w2000's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16142 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50754 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
Hi, Don't know if that will help, but I'm experiencing a weird issue here that *might* be related. I have been using 7.0.1 since it was out. I updated to 7.2 a couple days ago. My Duet would find SC and play local music, but anything related to Internet (Extras/news feeds, web radios etc.) would fail. Also, the bottom of the web page showing SC was carrying an error message related to DNS. I have been hunting for a potential cause for this. I have suspected that Logitech has modified the startup sequence for SC when run as a service (which is my case). Just to check, I went to XP admin tools, stopped the SC service and restarted it, and everything worked again. Cold rebooted the machine, again everything outside of my local music was not available. Stop/start SC service, and works again. This is 100% reproducible here. So I suspect that whatever modification was made to the startup sequence of SC when run as a service, has SC start too early, and in my case before the routing/firewall service (Kerio Winroute) which also runs on this machine (which is the internet gateway for my home LAN). When this happens, SC will bind to bad net links. Stop/start SC service cures the problem. Maybe you guys are facing some form of the same issue, where SC starts too early on your machines. Related or not, this is something that needs a fix.

Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
Same problem as everyone. I am running SC 7.2 with WinXP SP3. With the 7.0.1, everything was working fine. I upgraded to 7.1 last week, then the problem occurred. The icon tray stays on "SqueezeCenter starting"...I thought upgrading to 7.2 would fix this problem, but it remains the same. Is this problem taken into account ? I haven't seen any information about it here. It is really annoying, I can't play my music... I did not try to desinstall and install again, or in another directory as it seems not to be really efficient. Thanks for any advice, or any news about a fix. -- gwel gwel's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8092 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50754 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Squeezecenter won't start anymore
OK problem solved. I didn't want to wait for any possible answer. I chose to uninstall completely SqueezeCenter 7.2 and install it again. It works. The complete process I wen through : - uninstall SqueezeCenter with Add/Remove programs Windows tool, - clean the registry (i'm not sure this is necessary, but...) I use RegCleaner, it is free. Perform the complete scan : Tools->Registry cleanup->Do them all. Then check all the keys (Select->All) and click 'Remove selected', - restart the computer, - install SqueezeCenter 7.2.
