Installed eJuke with some problems - all were solved thanks to this forum - see previous posts for history if needed.
I let it run all night, was just fine in the morning. Then my wife calls me at work and says that it quit running. She ran it again, and all of our
songs are gone. She said that it asks her to point to a directory - like it is looking for music - when she opens the program, and I have her point
it to our networked mapped drive on our server. That did nothing.
When I got home I removed the database file (that I found on this forum) in the eJuke directory, and replaced with the one from this directory -
hoping that it would try to rebuild my database when I restarted the program. It didn't.
I tried to add songs to the database from within the program, and I point to the mapped network drive and it does nothing.
Any ideas? Should I try to re-install the program?
Thanks!
First off, you can rebuild your database by clicking the UPDATE DATABASE button on the eJukebox options panel...you don't need to replace the
ejuke.asn file and delete the db.m3u file unless eJukebox will not start at all.
Not sure how eJukebox could open up with all the songs missing in its interface unless you get a message that says "Database Corruption"
occured.
Sounds to me like your mapped drive was unable to connect (maybe the remote computer was down). Make sure the mapped drive letter works in explorer so
you can see the music files before rebuilding your database in eJukebox and selecting the mapped drive. Also make sure you have "Reconnect at
Logon" checked when you setup the mapped drive in explorer.
That was it - 'Reconnect at Logon' was not checked.
Thank you!
