Start End Tags Mismatch #280

Closed michnfish closed 10 years ago

michnfish commented 10 years ago

Can someone please look at this and help a newbie out. I've gotten this far with help, but I must have something wrong in my es_systems.cfg file. Here is the error: mame@mame-Nobilis:~$ emulationstation lvl0: Could not parse es_systems.cfg file! lvl0: Start-end tags mismatch lvl0: Error while parsing systems configuration file! mame@mame-Nobilis:~$

Here is the CFG file:

arcade ArcadeGames /usr/local/share/games/mame/roms .zip mame %BASENAME% arcade mame

Thanks, Jason

Look at the part with the 'The es_systems.cfg file' headline. That's how the file has to look. You forgot all the tags.

<systemList>
    <system>
