Hello all,

I've just bought a rebadged Dell to add to my two existing Dell units. I've upgraded to 1.04 of ARM to support the slight differences in the boxes, but can't get the new Sonicblue unit to boot properly with tRio.

It manages to get onto a tRio logo screen "Finding tRio server" but then stops doing anything.

In the tRio dos window is the following error:

java.lang.NullPointerException
at trio.TRioUnit.sendControlMessage(Unknown Source)
at trio.player.TRioPlayerApp.messageReceived(Unknown Source)
at trio.TRioUnit.notifyMessageListeners(Unknown Source)
at trio.TRioUnitControlThread.run(Unknown Source)

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Anything unusual in the log file? Should be in TRIO_HOME/logs.

Cheers
Paul

Hi. I'm not technical enough to determine whether the logs indicate anything unusual, so I shut everything down and restarted. Below is what the log recorded.

"harry" is the name of the server and its IP is 10.0.0.4.

Any ideas?!

Hi,

I've had a look and can't see an obvious cause for this. I think we need to log more detailed messages. To do this, edit logging.properties in TRIO_HOME and remove the leading # from the following 2 lines:

#trio.level = FINE
#trio.player.level = FINE

Then restart tRio and let me know what the logs say.

Cheers
Paul

Weird. So I switch on logging and they boot normally! Switch it off and they still boot normally! And I tried so many reboots before now!

You must have telepathic powers, Paul!

Thanks for your help.
