Hello everyone,
I have a problem. So far I had run a NAS where my video files are stored, a MariaDB ran on it and Kodi connected to it. This has worked for a long time now.
Now I got a new NAS. I have copied all video files to the new NAS, and I also exported the MariaDB databases from the old NAS and imported them onto the new one, and created a user ‘kodi’ with all permissions assigned.
The new NAS has assigned the same IP adress as the old one had (old one is disconnected).
However, Kodi won’t connect to the databases. It shows the ‘no content, add a source’ screen.
Then I removed the imported databases from MariaDB to have Kodi create them from scratch, also no result.
Even assigning the content type to a source folder does not work, the content type is not saved, the folder still has ‘none’ as content type.
The log says ‘unable to connect to database’ and ‘unable to create new database’.
Finally, just trying to play a video file from a folder crashes Kodi.
What am I doing wrong here?
