Hello,
I’m runing the last version of Kodi on OSMC on a vero 4K+, my samsung galaxy tab S8 ultra, s22 ultra and a Mi Box S. I have a database on my computer set with WAMP.
Everything works flawlessly since many years.
But lastly I made the Windows 24H2 upgrade and it broke on every device the videos. I can actually browse my database but as soon as I run a video, it says it can’t.
I’m sure it is this update problem because as soon as I uninstall it, it works again with no problem.
Can u please help me?
Do I have to install it again and post my logs? (i’ll have to wait a bit to do that).
Thank you for your help
P.S : I tried to install The windows update, and re make my database from scratch… and have the same problem…
This sounds to me like your MySQL database didn’t break but you have an issue with your share. Make sure Windows didn’t turn off network discovery or set your network connection to public instead of private.
Thanx!
From what i found just now, it is a problem with the password because when I uncheck “Share protected by password”, it works!
What I don’t understand is that i didn’t change anything… And I can’t let it uncheck, for safety reasons…
Windows has made an effort to stop people from using guest networks. You can force it, but it would probably just be a game of cat and mouse. The more sensible approach would be to just make a new local account with a password and use that for your SMB shares. This avoids the mess of the MS account thing. You can do it from the Windows terminal using “net user NewUser NewPassword /add”
Problem Solved!
I re-edited my “passwords.xml”.
Some sources had “share:share@MYIP”… I don’t know why it worked before but i replaced with “MYACCOUNT:MYPASSWORD@MYIP” on every sources and it seems to work as it should.
I’m greatfull for you to put me on the right path to find the answer.
Thank you!!
