Failed to load excludeList: ... Illegal char <:>

Hello !


Firstly, I love filebot and everything Rednoah does for all of us...
I just started having a strange problem out of nowhere and I am now getting continuous failures.


Details:
  • - I have not updated any software (Filebot 4.6.1, Java x64 8.72, qBitorrent 3.3.1) or made any changes to config, script or anything when this started failing.
    - The first time it failed, filebot log shows: "No files selected for processing"
    - For every subsequent failure, The filebot Log now shows "Failed to load excludeList: java.nio.file.InvalidPathException: Illegal char <:> at index 2: E:\INPUT\The.XFiles.S10E01.720p.HDTV.x264-AVS\the.xfiles.s10e01.720p.hdtv.x264-avs.rar" for every file it tries to process. (This entry the first listing in my large AMC.txt exclude list file. It has always been there. All entries contain the <:> character).
FileBot 4.6.1 (r3315)
JNA Native: 4.0.1
MediaInfo: MediaInfoLib - v0.7.78
7-Zip-JBinding: 9.20
Chromaprint: fpcalc version 1.1.0 (C:\Program Files\FileBot\fpcalc.exe)
Extended Attributes: OK
Groovy Engine: 2.4.5
JRE: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_77 (Just updated from _72 now when posting this)
JVM: 64-bit Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM
CPU/MEM: 4 Core / 1 GB Max Memory / 22 MB Used Memory
OS: Windows 7 (amd64)
Package: MSI
Data: C:\Users\nsadmin\AppData\Roaming\FileBot
Troubleshooting:
  • - I used a version of my script which does not use qBittorent Variables, and the same issue is still occurring.
    - When I renamed my original and used a new blank AMC.txt file, it would work for the first but then as I was expecting start giving the same error for the next time filebot is called to process data and open the exclude list (AMC.txt) file (This is obviously because the last time it ran, it added an Entry to the AMC File which contains the <:> character ...)
    -Tried updating Java
I have included the Script and the valuable part of the Filebot Log Below.
Anyone know why Filebot / java suddenly rejecting loading of the exclude list (amc.txt) simply because it has a semi-colon?

You've opened the file with a bad text editor (probably made by Microsoft) that a automatically added a BOM (invisible control character marking the file as UTF-8 file) on save.

Use proper text editors like Sublime or Notepad++ which don't break UTF-8 plain/text files.

@see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark

Yes, creating a new file with notepad++ did indeed fix the problem for me.
I will remind myself never to use Microsoft Note Pad.
