Hey Guys -
I'm having an issue where when performing an initial library update, the update basically freezes once it gets to a specific show. I left it overnight and it had only progressed about 3 shows which is not at all normal. Details below...
I was a huge Kodi user up to a few months ago when I switched to Plex after Kodi started having various issues. I decided to go back yesterday so thought I'd go ahead and build my DB. I did so on a Windows Server 2019 x64 VM using mySQL 5.7. When finding that I couldn't run Kodi within the VM, I installed it on my local workstation, configured the advancedsettings.xml to connect to the DB, added sources, and started the update.
The freeze occurs at the show "American Horror Story". It is in the 2nd path I added to "TV Shows" therefore about 30 shows were added successfully (and in about 10 minutes) prior to getting to it. To note, all my shows are properly organized, named, and metadata scraped using Sonaar + Media Center Master prior to this.
Below is what I've tried to resolve the issue, some environment specs, a snippet of Kodi's debug log for my last attempt, and my advancedsettings.xml.
Any suggestions are appreciated - Thanks!!
What I've Tried
- Having Kodi's default of "TMDB" set as the TV Show scraper
- Trying XEM, local only, & TheTVDB add-ons - all have the same result
- Downgrading mySQL. I originally started with v8 but uninstalled, deleted DB, and did a clean install with 5.7. Have Kodi's initial launch create the DBs
- mySQL server is dedicated to mySQL, is a basic setup, has no firewall, AV, etc. Permissions are as recommended
- At one point yesterday (well after going to 5.7), I deleted the DBs and had Kodi recreate them for heck of it
- Checked files in show and don't see anything that stands out as could cause an issue
Environment
My signature is outdated
- mySQL
- Windows 2019 x64 VM (ESXi) Fully patched
- x4 CPU / 4gb RAM / SSD Datastore
- mySQL 5.7 x64
- No local firewall / AV
- IP: 192.168.0.70
- Kodi Client
- Windows 10 x64 (Fully Patched)
- Plenty of resources
- Kodi 18.1
- No local firewall
- Media / files are local to client and on a 45tb disk pool (Having no issues with pool whatsoever)
- IP: 192.168.0.25
- Libraries added via SMB path so I could use common xmls on all systems connecting to DB
- Gigabit connection to mySQL VM above
- Can connect to DB using mySQL Workshop and see created DBs that verify connectivity
- In between tests, I ensure kodi.exe is no longer running and sometimes restart the DB's service on the VM
Debug Log Snippet
Below is a debug log from my last scan which used the default "TMDB" scraper in Kodi. It starts about 2 minutes into Kodi being open while successfully scanning the last few episodes of the prior show: "American Greed" at 10:55am. The shows before this one updated fast since they were initially added during a prior test. As you can see, it starts scanning "American Horror Story" afterwards. The end of the log is almost 3 hours later and it still says 27% for "American Horror Story."
Note: Sometimes when testing, it lists it as 100%, but same overall result except for leaving it ocvernight where it got to a show in the early "B"s.
