NEWA not working after upgrading to 3.1.1

[mvallevand]

I would remove

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30139\Temporary ASP.NET Files

and try the install again.

Sorry for the long delay but I started trying some other PVR's but im back. Still having the same problem as before. NEWA works perfectly fine on 2.6.2 but when I upgrade to a newer version of NPVR (this time 3.3.8) NEWA no longer works even after a fresh install from the wiki.

So i was going to upload the web.log file but it looked like it just had the successful login from 2.6.2 so i deleted it, thinking that if i restarted the service it would create a new one but it didn't.So i went back to 2.6.2 checked and NEWA worked. Upgraded to 3.3.8, NEWA stopped working and no new web log was created. Updated NEWA form the wiki, NEWA still doesn't work and no new log created.

To me this seems like NEWA is failing to start hence no new log is created. Keep in mind that even though NEWA no longer works NPVR seems to working fine. I originally tried and a do a fresh install of 3.3.8 but I can't Bulk map my EPG so i needed to start at 2.6.2 to bulk map. Posted for this as well on the forum.

I would remove

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30139\Temporary ASP.NET Files

and try the install again.

If you downloaded from the wiki then you are mixing versions that will not work... what was on the wiki was compatible with the previous release of NPVR but not 3.3.8. I have updated the wiki to now have a link to the version of NEWA that is shipping with NPVR 3.3.8 with is version NEWA 2.15.

Doing what Martin suggested is another good housecleaning item to do and can help with erroneous errors.

After loading from latest version let us know how you make out.

Hmm, I'm having this problem too now. I don't use the web interface much so I've only just noticed that the latest web.log was closed about 2 months ago! Here's the latest log snippet regarding the web server, which seems not to be starting.

Code:

Unexpected error starting web server:

Remedial action taken includes a re-install of npvr and manual install of NEWA from the wiki (version 2.15). I've also deleted the temp .NET files as suggested by Martin.

Ideas? Thanks.

Stop the service....

Then from the NPVR program folder enter the following command and let me know what happens...

nrecord.exe RUN

Thanks for your help.

I tried starting nrecord.exe using the syntax as you suggested and got this:

Anything captured in the windows event logs when this occurs?

I got this from the app log, source ASP.NET 4.0.3.0319.0 Not sure if it helps....

And I'm now getting this error in the browser run on the same machine (so attempting to connect to localhost) where before I simply got a cannot connect error:

Code:

I haven't altered any security permissions, nor changed how the NET service runs. I am experimenting now with running nrecord.exe as a local user rather than as system in order to facilitate NPVR recording directly to a NAS, but I'm not convinced this would make a difference, as I tried browser access after I changed nrecord.exe back to running under the system account, with the same result as you see here.

UPDATE: And now it starts to get messy. I dug around for the folder that the browser error suggested was a permissions problem. It didn't exist, so I created it, and the error has now changed to this:

Code:

Server Error in '/' Application.
Configuration Error

That missing folder is created by then installer, delete it and run the installer again. In the Installer Details you should see this line at the very end.

Create folder: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files

Letting the installer does it ensure you have the correct permissions.

Umm, when you say the installer, you mean the .NET installer - InstallUtil.exe? Surely not...

I have no installer for NEWA - I just copy everything from the NEWA zip file into NPVR's web folder. What am I missing here?
