Check Log - All AddOns failing to run

Help and Support Raspberry Pi
1

Folks, I am running OSMC 2015-10.1 (kernel-Linux 4.2.3-3-osmc)

I have Live TV running fine, it plays my Upnp media centre files fine but of late all my addons return the same error;

One or more items failed to play. Check the log for more information about this message.

I only have three addons, NASA, Youtube and Russia Today and I get this message with all of them.

I am not sure what log it refers to or what to search for if I did know the log.

Any clues appreciated.

Karnage,

Thank you for prompt reply.

This morning (04/11/15 GMT) I got the following error saying ‘One or more items failed to play’ as follows;
11.11 Youtube
11.13 Russia Today
11.15 Nasa

The log URL is;

I have viewed the file and cannot see where these times relate to.

There seems to be a problem with your Pi’s internet connection, there are hundreds of connection timeout errors in your log. Here are a few:

You need to check your network setup - if you have given your Pi a static IP make sure you gave it a valid gateway and dns as well. You could try logging in with SSH and then try to ping for example:

ping www.google.com

Start from there.

DBMandrake, thank you very much for prompt reply.

The network set up has puzzled me, I had Google’s 8.8.8.8 as primary DNS and my router’s address as secondary. Changed to my ISP’s DNS settings and all works fine now.

Thank you anyway for pointing me in the correct direction.
