Can't get it to work at all

apadua Wrote:Anyways, I figured out what was going on. Apparently there is a file within the XBMC Package that is called Profiles.xml. It isn't kept in the users/apadua/Library/XBMC/ directory, but rather within the app itself.

Inside that file were the two user profiles i had - the Master User profile and an additional profile Called MediaMini (same name as my mac). Anyways, so I see that file in there and i realise it has been altered. So I edit the file back to normal and delete the XML stanza that created the second user.

Sounds like this could two more files that need to be moved out of the application package and to the Application data. What do you programming gods think?

Yes. This used to be the case and someone (who will go unmentioned here) broke it. I'll look at re-fixing it for the next beta.

I logged into a test account and it still crashed, but on a whim, I downloaded the app bundle again. The new bundle worked. I downloaded the first bundle via bit torrent. The new one via http. I also did some diff's. Before I ran the new bundle, I made a backup copy of it. There is no difference between the backup and the original after running the original. There is a difference between the torrent version and the http version. Also, once I logged back in as my normal user the HTTP version worked there, too.

Note: I can provide any file you like.

The XBMC in the Downloads directory is the HTTP (working) version.
