XBMC on Gentoo: Remote Communication Server Failed to Start - SylaSebas - 2013-10-30 Hi guys I'm quite a fan of XBMC and I set up already some servers for me and some friends and family (e.g. on OpenELEC, RPi, Windows). Well I tried to do the same on a Gentoo/Linux machine and it pretty much works all fine except that during the start up of XBMC, there is a notification on the bottom right corner that says: "Remote Communication Server Failed to Start". I haven't found out where the problem is yet. I checked the port and tried a few different ones but that didn't change anything. I also checked the log file ($home/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log) and there is not a single error or warning listed. Does anyone have an idea what I should do? Thanks and regards, SylaSebas RE: XBMC on Gentoo: Remote Communication Server Failed to Start - nickr - 2013-10-30 set debug log (wiki)ging and look at the generated log. RE: XBMC on Gentoo: Remote Communication Server Failed to Start - SylaSebas - 2014-05-17 hi there sry it's a long time since I posted this problem. The solution was quite simple: create a advancedsettings.xml in the folder ./xbmc/userdata and add the following: <advancedsettings> <jsonrpc> <tcpport>XXXX</tcpport> </jsonrpc> </advancedsettings> replace "XXXX" with a free port and that's it. regards |
