Bug report

Your Environment

Used Operating system:

Describe the bug

Whenever my system starts-up, an error is shown: "Netflix addon failed, please check the registry log". If I click on the Netflix addon, it gives the error: "The requested action timed out. The background service may not yet be available if you just started Kodi/the addon. In this case try again in a moment.", and the addon can't be opened. If I disable and then enable the addon straight away, it works as expected.

Expected behavior

Not showing an error at startup. Being able to open Netflix addon without having to disable/enable it first.

Actual behavior

Netflix addon can't be opened unless I do a disable/enable process.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Start-up system.
  2. Error is shown when the skin is loading
  3. Try to open Netflix addon.
  4. It can't be opened.

Possible fix

As I said, workaround is to disable the addon, enable it inmediatly, and the addon works as it should.

Thanks for the answer. Can you please elaborate it a little bit? I'll be very helpful for me. I don't really know what do you mean with "you have some problem with localhost". Do you mean that that function can't get localhost address??

Thank you very much in advance.

EDIT: So, I googled the error, now I understand: https://kite.com/python/docs/socket.gaierror https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44591027/socket-gaierror-errno-2-name-or-service-not-known-with-python3

Thanks for your help!

i'm sorry but i know little about local network configurations..

Sockolet commented 4 years ago

Well, it is solved by setting "Wait for network before starting Kodi" with 10 seconds of timeout in CoreELEC settings.

Sorry for bothering you with this.

Thank you very much for your amazing work!
