Hi,

I loop on the sad face of OSMC (I do nothing maybe an automatic update ?)
I search on google but no way for me I can’t solve the issue.

I already rename .kodi
and this is my log file https://paste.osmc.tv/teluvifawi

Can you help me ?

Thanks in advance

Your system is quite out of date.

The error is caused by

17:08:33.412 T:1959018496   FATAL: addon 'xbmc.addon' not installed or not enabled.
17:08:33.412 T:1959018496   FATAL: CServiceManager::Init: Unable to start CAddonMgr

You seem to be familiar with APT based on your Terminal history, so I’d suggest running a dist-upgrade.

I already did it, no upgrade suggested

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

And

sudo apt-get update

Your system has been corrupted. I believe you’ll need a re-install.

Looks like a filesystem corruption.

Your system has been going for quite a long time (since May 2015), so you’ve had a good run.

You can reinstall the missing library and see if that fixes the problem:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --reinstall  samba-libs

You are incredible fast - thank you so much - will try and come back soon :slight_smile:

Great success!! Kodi is right back on it’s way… :slight_smile:

how can I prevent this for the future?

Should I change the SDCARD medium e.g. ?!

thx again with regards,
Paule

Hi,

It seems like your SD card may be problematic.

Some SD cards are not genuine or have a lower capacity than advertised. Some simply fail over time.

Symptoms of SD cards not working correctly are:

  • Read-only behaviour, or changes made not persisting
  • A filesystem corruption error

Symptoms of counterfeit SD cards are:

  • Writing works until a certain filesystem size is reached, thereafter, writes seem to cause issues where existing data is lost or newly written data is not preserved.
  • SD card fails after a short amount of time.

Counterfeit cards are usually found on Amazon and eBay.

SD cards have a limited lifespan. I recommend you change SD card and suspect that issues will no longer persist with a good card. If you would like to be a good quality SD card purpose manufactured for OSMC, then you can find one in the Store.
