Kodi Check The Log For More Information
am having a problem with enabling Live TV using the NextPVR add-on. Once enabled it starts to get the information one or more items failed to play check the log file for details like loading channels and EPG, then the screen goes black and it pops me back to the home screen. When I check the Live TV again, it is disabled. I turned on kodi log uploader error debugging to try and find out what is going on but I have no idea where the log files are. From browsing the web I am told two different locations: 1. $HOME/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log - This did not work and after much searching I found that you need to be logged in as the xmbc account and not root. How do I log in as the xmbc

you two ways to check Kodi's log file for errors.Checking the log file itselfKodi's log is a plain text file so you can open it with openelec log file location any text editor. Use this method if you are planning on asking for help in kodi log viewer forums, having the log file at hand can save you a lot of time.Every OS uses different paths to store Kodi's files,

you can find the path to the log file on the following list.Windows: C:\Users\{user_name}\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\kodi.logAndroid:{storage}/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/temp/kodi.logLinux: ~/.kodi/kodi.logiOS: /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/Kodi/kodi.logMac: /Users/{user_name}/Library/Application Support/Kodi/kodi.logOpenELEC: /storage/.kodi/kodi.logOSMC: /home/osmc/.kodi/temp/kodi.logXBian: /home/xbian/.kodi/temp/kodi.logIt's considered good practice to use services like xbmclogs.com or pastebin.com to upload your log instead of posting the file directly to a forum.Using http://openelec.tv/forum/64-installation/60510-log-files Log Viewer for Kodi addonYou can check the log file without leaving Kodi by downloading the Log Viewer for Kodi addon in Kodi's official repository. This method will show you the log file regardless of the OS you are running. 1. Select "System" on the Home Screen. 2. Then "Add-ons". 3. Click on "Install from repository". 4. Select "Kodi Add-on Repository". (If you don't have any other repo installed, Kodi will use the official https://howtomediacenter.com/en/how-to-check-kodi-log-file/ repo by default). 5. Go to "Program add-ons". 6. Scroll the list until you find "Log Viewer for Kodi" and click on it. 7. Press "Install" and wait a couple of seconds while it downloads. 8. Go back to the Home Screen and select "Programs". (If you are using Android you'll see an extra menu after, select "Program add-ons"). 9. Click on "Log Viewer for Kodi" to open it. 10. Select "Show Log" to display the log file. Some low power system might take a couple of second to show the log file.Kodi's log file can give us a hint of what's going on, you don't need to fully understand it but it's a good starting point when identifying failing addons or asking for help in forums. Remember to check the log file as soon as the error happens, Kodi events are constantly being written to this file so the longer you wait the more difficult it'll be to identify the error.More Info:Kodi Log File Wiki EntryShare your Kodi log file at xbmclogs.comHow to check Kodi's log file Tagged on: errorKoditroubleshooting HowToMediaCenterJune 24, 2016 Kodi 31 Comments ← SALTS and Trakt: Kodi & Stream All The Sources Complete Guide Part 2Tutorial: How to install Fusion Addon Installer on Kodi → 31 thoughts on “How to check Kodi's log file” Chris Rei
