Library clean up removes mounted NFS path - ramymamlouk - 2014-01-22

Hi.
I have a dedicated HTPC running the unstable version of XBMC

Code:
xbmc@xbmc:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.list

# deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu quantal main

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/unstable/ubuntu quantal main

Code:
xbmc@xbmc:~$ dpkg -l | grep xbmc

~~ snip ~~

ii  xbmc 2:13.0~git20140104.0734-alpha11-0quantal all XBMC Media Center (arch-independent data package)

My library is located on an NFS server, and the NFS share is mounted during boot (via fstab), while some TV Shows are located on a separate partition (also mounted via fstab). The library database itself is running on a mySQL server. Everything is working fine, scanning to library, playing, HiDef, etc.

My only problem is whenever I run a "Clean up library" from the Settings menu, the Videos Source which is the mounted NFS share is removed from the Library (and all library items within) leaving only the locally mounted TV Shows. When I checked the mySQL database, table "path", I can find an entry pointing to my mounted NFS share, but after running Library Cleanup then record is removed from the database.

Is there a reason for that behavior? Knowing that the database version is MyVideos77.

Thanks in advance.

Sounds sort of like this issue I am talking about here:

With mounted nfs though - sounds like totally unrelated to XBMCs nfs implementation then but a more general thing - if it is even the same issue (might be the same result but chasing 2 different bugs here...)

Yeah sounds right - just thought I'd put it on your radar. I am wondering if the issue is more general in the new exists checking routine...although the bug definitely surfaces between 12.2 and 12.3 and with the nfs bump...so maybe some sort of interaction between those things.

Can I provide you with any logs for further investigation? I hope I could help in any way.

Ah! Instead of asking if you can provide logs, shouldnt you be providing them? Smile

since you have a problem it is automatically absolutely required along with all sorts of debugging information that can help. Wink

Just need pointers on which logs to provide Wink

You'll get so much further if you just fire up Google and do the very basics of research yourself...
