Missing UNC Path since 4.9.0

[Koda]

Hi

Since the Update (I have try the 4.8.5 and 4.9.0 portable too), I get this error after I click to Match and chose the tv series

Code: Select all

"InvaludPathException: UNC path is missing sharename: \\mydomain.local

With 4.8.5 all works fine

\\mydomain.local is technically not a valid UNC path, so I presume you've simply omitted the rest of the path, perhaps?

Please explain exactly what you're doing and include screenshots and logs.


Perhaps \\mydomain.local is not a valid host name? Are you sure that . is allowed in host names?

Hi

Thank you for answer

Yes. The UNC Path is from Windows Server DFS and work well with 4.8.5 of FileBot

Please explain exactly what you're doing and include screenshots and logs.

From what you need the Screenshot? I only Load the file, go to Match, Chose the TV Show and after this I see the error and I must kill the software
F7 for the Log I get this:

I'll look into it. The easy workaround would be to use a mapped network share.


EDIT:

IDK. It works for all of my test cases. Renaming dragging and dropping files from \\host\share and \\ip\share all works as expected.

[Koda]

Thank you for Help. At this moment I use 4.8.5 as Workaround.

I have this same error since it updated to 4.9.0 yesterday. My media downloads to a folder on my QNap NAS and it has always worked fine, but now when I try to rename files from the top level of a network share on the QNap it gets the error, so on;
\\QNap\TV Shows this is won't work
but if I drag them into Filebot from this path it does still work fine;
\\QNap\TV Shows\# Resilio Sync Folders

[Emanef]

Actually, it's still not quite right. It seems fine for movies, but when I try it with TV show episodes I still get the error come up and nothing is populated in the right. However, if I then hit rename it does rename them, so that's clearly not working as it should.

[rednoah]

Yes, there's a runtime error that breaks matching as well as rendering due to errors in UNC path handling under specific circumstances.

You can work around these issues by using mapped network drives. A deeper folder structure can also work around the issue, since the error occurs when \\host is interpreted as parent folder which then leads to unexpected errors.


EDIT:

Fixed with FileBot r7245.

[Koda]

You are great. Thank you so much. Is this the newest 4.9.0 from here? https://get.filebot.net/filebot/BETA/

[rednoah]

Yes, if you're on Windows, then can test with the ZIP package.

[Koda]

Works. Thank you for your fast help.
I'm looking forward to the release

[ChrisQuinn]

So something has changed in the code that broke the UNC names. I also use a domain.local path for my entire home network. This has been working for years and only recently (as of last update) stopped working. Is it that hard to roll back? I would rather remove the new features (None of them pertain to me personally) than use mapped drives. Or fix the UNC issue. Is it really that hard?

[rednoah]

Sure, just install an older version. The issue has also already been fixed in the latest beta.

[mugiwara]

Thanks, any idea when this will be merged into master? I have a bunch of templates so the portable version isn't picking them up, and not sure I want to downgrade back to 4.8.5. If there's another recommendation on an easy way to downgrade to the previous version without going back to April 2019 (the only other MSI I can find), that would be great. Thanks.

[rednoah]

You can export your settings from MSI package, and then import your exported settings in the ZIP package:

Make sure to use the appropriate C:/path/to/filebot.exe for export / import calls.

I bought filebot using Windows Store. Any news on when it gets an update there? Also getting UNC path issue, seems to work fine on the Beta but as I have no license key or file, I'll have to wait for Store update I guess.

[rednoah]

An update will likely be released first week of April. You can use mapped network drives in the meanwhile to work around the issue.

Works perfectly fine now, thanks for the advice!

I ran the portable one, and it works. But my installed one (MS Store) doesnt work... How do I get the key for it??

[benfilebot]

Hello, do you know when 4.9.1 will be pushed to Microsoft Store? I just checked version via CMD filebot - version and I'm still on r7234, having done a clean install. Could really do with the fix to this issue. Many thanks!

[rednoah]

Hello, do you know when 4.9.1 will be pushed to Microsoft Store?

Soon-ish. Assuming there's no particular issues with the RC for a week or two.
