[PROBLEM] No menues / tabs moode 6.5.2

[Ale2.0]

Hello dear community 

I have recently installed moode 6.5.2 after before using 6.5.x. I set it up with a moodecfg.txt (first time) as I am flashing it quite often to test things. Now I have no menues on the main screen [Can't choose album, storage, radio etc.] never had this before, could it be caused by the moodecfg.txt? 

It does not appear on any client, smartphone Computer or local. 

Also in the settings everything is grey, all buttons, in previous versions it was emerald too, which still is set.

Appreciate help but I think I will now try to install it without a config file and see further. Would be very nice if it would work with the cfg file! 

Hope you find the problem, if you need further info just ask but I will try it now without a cfg. Will post the result as an answer. 

Have a nice day!

Hello again 

I can now confirm, that the cfg file is the problem. 
After newly flashing and booting without it, everything was great. After adding the cfg file and booting again everything vanished again. 

Would be great if this would be fixed as it is a great future for fastly setting up the system.

Hi Ale,

Post the moodecfg.txt file you are using and I'll have a look.

I can never rule out bugs.

Hey Tim, thanks for the fast reaction!

As you see I just used the template from GitHub and changed the Values to my needs.

Yeah you'll never get rid of bugs and with every part that gets updated new ones come... I know it from work ^^

txt is not allowed as attachement... I zipped it.

You can post it in a code box. Its the 3rd or 5th button from right on the toolbar depending on whether composing a new thread or editing an existing one.

Yours looks ok to me.

Code:

The auto-config process creates a log file /home/pi/autocfg.log that may indicates what's going on.

Heres what a successful auto-config should look like.

Code:

Looks like the last line has no delimiter. Isn't that a problem when parsing the file into lines with the php strtok function? [Says the guy who has repeatedly proclaimed his lack of php skills  ]

Which line?

[TheOldPresbyope]

I unzipped his file

Here's the tail end of "od -c" output

Code:

0001440   a   r   d  \r  \n   a   c   c   e   n   t   c   o   l   o   r
0001460   =   E   m   e   r   a   l   d

I see there is a missing return (\r\n) at the end of Emerald.

I'll investigate.

Thinking a bit it would probably be easier if @Ale2.0 posted the autocfg.log file. If there were an issue parsing the moodecfg.txt file it would show up in the log.
