Enhanced Web Admin (EWA) Build 55 Released

[David]

Use the new database in the zaptools archive. Also...there is a bug tht imapcts me where I can no longer use the already downloaded zapt data from gbpvr....so if you have that option set try going back to using your user id and password and doing the zap download rather than using what gbpvr creates.

sub is looking into tht issue.

Yes, I found that GB-PVR seems to be over writting the previously saved zap2it.xml instead of replacing the file. So, if the new data is fewer bytes than the previous data, the tail end of the previous data remains in the file, and the xml parsing becomes confused due to the extra garbage at the end.

Deleting the xml file after zapimport forces GB-PVR to create a new file each day, which appear to be fine.

Iget the following error when opening the Statistics tab:

Code:

[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]

First guess would be you a funky character on your share name.....I have attached a patch file that catches the error you reported....it will show the error message that it encounters on your statistics page.

Hi, when I replaced the info.aspx.cs file I do not get the error page anymore. Just the ordinary:
Recordings Directory: Could not load share info for \\server2\Video

And the reason for this error I know, when I installed a new 320 GB disk I mounted the volume as a mountpount (f:\shares\video) rather than as a drive letter (as you would normally do in a windows environment. With this approach I did not have to change any entries in my DB even though I moved all recordings to my new disk to free up space on the old disk).

Thanks for the solution.

Just a thought. How do you get the drive info?
Is it through WMI or like this:

Code:

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

[DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
public static extern bool GetDiskFreeSpaceEx(
        string lpDirectoryName,
        out UInt64 lpFreeBytesAvailable,
        out UInt64 lpTotalNumberOfBytes,
        out UInt64 lpTotalNumberOfFreeBytes);

ulong freeBytesAvailable = 0;
ulong totalNumberOfBytes = 0;
ulong totalNumberOfFreeBytes = 0;

GetDiskFreeSpaceEx(
   "c:\\",
   out freeBytesAvailable,
   out totalNumberOfBytes,
   out totalNumberOfFreeBytes);

I have no possibility to test these out but I would think Microsoft has some way of getting the correct size even from mounted filesystems that does not originate as a drive letter. I will continue searching to see if I can find more on the subject.

The code in EWA actually takes the path that is in the config file for gbpvr and attempts to mount it as a temporary drive.....it can fail on the mount or it can fail on finding the path....in this case it appears to be the path.

You are correct.....I didn't include the specific error message....I could do that.....I just copied in the catch code from the mount and added it to the path check after the mount.....let me know if you want me to add in the error message.

[forzaKGB]

Yes, I would very much like to see the Error Message aswell. Perhaps everyone else is not as interested.

It is actually there....it is just in the web log.....after getting the error click on the log file link and go to the bottom....you should see the error message that was returned. Let me know what it is......

I cannot download this file, could htat be due to the fact I am using IIS?

The error I get when trying to view the log file:

Could be.......look in the following directory.....look through all the subdirectories looking for the one that contains the gpvrpublic.dll....there will then be a sub directory called logs and you can find the log file there....
