Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Import Rom files contained in 7z compressed files.
2. attempt to load those files in emulator such as ZSnes.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect the ROM to load in the emulator or in multiple ROM archives, be given 
a choice.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

RCB 0.9.7 from repo and installed from the zip obtained from here.  Using XBMC 
Live 10.1

Please provide any additional information below.

Important part of xbmc.log

Can you please check if you have following files 
- py7zlib.py
- pylzma.py
- pylzma.so

in this folder:
your XBMC 
userfolder\addons\script.games.rom.collection.browser.dev\resources\platform_lib
raries\Linux

That folder does not exist, I downloaded the platform_libraries.zip from your 
download section and extracted to said folder.  The only files now in the 
folder are:

dbapi2.py
_sqlite.so
__init__.py

platform_libraries.zip is kind of outdated. It just contains the sql libraries. 
Thanks for the hint.

You can extract the downloaded RCB zip file (0.9.7) and place the files 
manually in the named folder.

I guess what happened: XBMC stores a copy of all addons that you get via repo 
browser in this folder: your XBMC userfolder\addons\packages. When you try to 
reinstall an addon it first checks this folder and uses the zip file that it 
finds there. So you could also try to delete the RCB files in this folder and 
reinstall it from zip file again.

If this works for you I have to update the wiki with this instruction.

I disabled then un-installed RCB (backed up settings and database first) 
deleted the zip file from the userfolder\addons\packages folder.

I then attempted to installed RCB from the zip file which I transferred to my 
home folder, this failed.  It turns out that 
script.games.rom.collection.browser in addons and 
script.games.rom.collection.browser in userdata\addon_data were still there.  I 
manually deleted those folders.

I again installed RCB from the zip file and made a quick database with some .7z 
archived roms.  They now work.  I copied my old database back to RCB containing 
lots of .7z archived roms among other uncompressed and .zip ones.  Everything 
now works great, thanks for the quick resolution :)
