[awi][gck] b7 & b8 - library update, index fails

[Gregor]

Hi Angstrom,

I'm not yet sure what's going on. The colon is the account name should be a problem, however (since some of your databases work properly).

Other question again for the disk sizes: Can you check the size for all drives, esp. E:/, C:/?

Hi Angstrom,

could you send me those two mentioned .db files from the Live 8.08b\Database\ folder?

Thanks,
Gregor

[Angstrom]

I will mail you the database files for both Beta 7 and 8
here is some drive space information


C: operating system [total size = 79 GB] [free space = 49.3 GB ]
D (DVD drive)
E: programs [total size = 155 GB] [free space = 129 GB ]

.. many other unrelated disks !

Y: Libraries [total size = 190 GB] [free space = 100 GB ]
Z: Scratch Disk [total size = 48.8 GB] [free space = 24 GB ]

Resolved for Beta 9

Either you guys fixed something, or I did.

My install process for Beta 9 was to rename any existing folders in
C:\Documents and Settings\username.COMPUTERNAME\Application Data\Ableton

EG:
\Application\ignore-me_Live 8.0b7
\Application\ignore-me_Live 8.0b8

to hide the existing preferences folders from the new install. My idea was to prevent a copy of the existing database and force a fresh one to be generated.

This seems to have worked or, more likely you fixed it.


I can now see the metadata in the Info view when flipping through presets.

Hi Angstrom,

we've fixed a little problem with the installation, which caused some problems, but only in some very obscure cases -- which happened to you only (as far as I could tell).

So it's nice to hear that it works now for you.

Thanks for your help and patience,
Gregor
