Maraschino (formerly HTPC Frontend) - a summary web interface for your XBMC HTPC

I've been trying to be quiet about this since I had hoped it would fix itself, but now I'm just getting impatient.

I can't get the CouchPotato module to work. I have a working version of CouchPotato V2 on the same server as Maraschino, but the module refuses to show up after its been configured. I've double checked CouchPotato and the API is enabled and I've set the correct API key and other items in the Maraschino settings for the module. The Maraschino logs also don't contain any information, it just doesn't do anything.

I've tried restarting Maraschino, and rebooting the server to no avail. Anyone have any other suggestions? I have Sickbeard working 100% and all of these services run on the same machine. I also have other 3rd party apps like MediaDog for my phone connecting to CouchPotato with no problem, so I don't think it is a problem on that end. Thanks for any help!

Had an idea I wanted to share..

It would be really cool if we could see the modules have a 'collapse' button of sorts that shrinks and minimizes the modules to be just the headline portion.. So many great modules popping up and my maraschino page is starting to feel a little cluttered, but that's probably my own fault too

Might be a stupid question, but you do have a movie in your wanted list yes?
This is where I got caught out. It doesnt show if the wanted list is empty.

Yes, there are 10-12 movies in the "wanted" list. This has fluctuated since I tried to configure the module but there has always been at least 1.

Wanted to update this as I've been playing with various pieces to see if I can figure out what is wrong. I have managed to determine that when using Maraschino on port 7000 that everything (including CouchPotato) works just fine. Normally I use Maraschino as part of a reverse proxy so I can also get to Sickbeard, Couchpotato, etc from outside home. When connecting this way, over a different port, then everything except CouchPotato works. Not entirely sure why just yet.

When going directly to the url of http://ipaddress:7000/xhr/couchpotato I can see the unformatted version of the module. Doing the same url only using the reverse proxy port I get a redirect to http://localhost:7000/xhr/couchpotato and then an error since that doesn't exist. I'm going to play with my reverse proxy settings (apache) a little and see if I can figure out what is going on.

Just wanted to mention that some of the artist info like the name and genre are displayed strangely as of (aug9) nightly build.

Lots of changes are going on though so may be a non-issue!

Xbmc's nightly builds?

Yep xbmc

it wont only be artists... there have been some changes to the xbmc api.

Awesome! my FreeNAS plugin is nearing completion. Used your api to shutdown maraschino and am grabing the values of username, password, port, and webroot from the maraschino database with sqlite.

Only thing that isn't functional is changing the port in the maraschino gui still doesn't seem to do anything. Can anyone confirm that the option in the gui does change the port number after a restart? (This is without using the port commandline flag)
Thanks!!!

I just pushed a commit to master, can you please let me know if this fixes the port setting for you.
