Universal Media Server | Forum

It finally works. But the config still is kinda confusing: You need a @ before the name. It has to be in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Universal Media Server" (instead of all the other config files which has to be in "C:\ProgramData\UMS") and you can't seem to change it, only its name....

Upgrade to 2.6 and then upload a new log. Since 2.6 the vfolder conf file will be included in the zip file. Than I seem to have a very crazy version of 2.6, because it isn't included nor does the file menu show a checkbox to include it: http://i.imgur.com/deFUqtG.png But I just added it myself to t...

Still the same problem with 2.6.0 (and yes, I changed the ums.conf to point to your new file)...
It now gets really confusing.

I tried. No special chars at all.
I also tried to close UMS, created a new txt file and added the content to it with Windows Editor (and afterwars withNotepad++), renamed it and restarted UMS but it still shows the same problem

It is UTF-8 without BOM, like the UMS.conf... O.o

Maybe try running it as administrator but i can't think of anything else Jup, Server 2008 R2 is my media server, where XBMC does gets all its dat...

Still have the same problem with 2.5.2.2. und jre 1.7.0_17...
Here is my ums_dbg.zip.
Hope anybody can help.

Updated to 2.5.2.1 today and this appeared at the end of my log. A serious error occurred during PMS init com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Expected BEGIN_ARRAY but was STRING at line 1 column 2 at com.google.gson.Gson.fromJson(Gson.java:806) ~[ums.jar:2.5.2.1] at...

Okay, now it get's confusing. So I need to add a vfolders_json.conf to the ProgramData/UMS/ path (btw: why is it programdata instead of AppData?) and add my paths in JSON format, right? So how would it look like to have it the way I wanted to set it up with Movies (U:/, V:/, & W:/) and Series (X...
