XBMC-Server (headless/minified) Libraryscanner

Remove NFS from the service list in Autoshutdown and use a different trigger (like kb/s up/down) instead?

Greetings
David

For those interested and wants to run the latest Kodi version I've now compiled a new 15.1 image which is available on my Docker Hub account.

Hello
I have been using kodi-server based from this thread and it work great till now.

Today, i decided to move forward and use the docker-gui. But i was greeted by unfamiliar features that i cant seem to understand.

I have been using this command:

docker run -d --restart=always --net=host -e MYSQLip=10.10.10.2 -e MYSQLport=3306 -e MYSQLuser=myuser -e MYSQLpass=mypass -e KODIWATCHDOG=true -v /opt/kodi:/opt/kodi-server/share/kodi/portable_data nicjo814/docker-kodi-headless:15.0

Anyone care to help on how to put the old configuration on the new GUI please.
Thanks

Do i need to add my current working advancedsettings.xml?

Did you delete the previous container (you shouldn't) or did you just install the plugin?

You should enter the -e parameters as "Environment variables". The -v parameters are entered under "Volumes and Bind mounts". The restart=always parameter is specified with the check-box in the top of the run container window. I think that's all you would need... But none of that is necessary if you haven't deleted your container already...

By the way you should probably remove Mysql user/pass from your post...

i have removed the old docker and kodi / containers based on this thread and started new with the docker-gui and downloaded kodi again.

user:pass edited. Thanks

Ok, as long as you specified the bind mount /opt/kodi:/opt/kodi-server/share/kodi/portable_data in the "Bind mounts and volumes" section when you started the container from the plugin you should have all the old configuration intact including advancedsettings.xml (unless you also deleted the /opt/kodi path on your host system).

This is the part where i am confuse

I know its wrong, can you correct me please

Aha, ok. /opt/kodi should go into the "Host path", and /opt/kodi-server/share/kodi/portable_data should go into the "Container path" field.

Got it!
Thank You nicjo814 & subzero79 for the help

One thing, is watchdog activated or i need to do something more?

Simplest is just to test the watchdog by copying in some new file and see if it appears in your library. Regarding the error in your log it's because there is a "popup" window telling you to update to the 15.2 stable version, but that shouldn't be a problem I think.

watchdog is not working as i don't have it in my addon folder. only service.xbmc.versioncheck & metadata.themoviedb.org are currently installed

Did you do this step when you setup the container?:

Zitat von nicjo814

You should enter the -e parameters as "Environment variables".

which of the following is correct...

KODIADDONS="service.watchdog"
KODIADDONS="metadata.universal|service.watchdog"
KODIWATCHDOG=true

the "qoute" is necessary?

The quotes shouldn't be there if using the GUI (I think ).

KODIWATCHDOG has been remove and no longer an option correct??

That's correct.
