Amarok hangs at 87% (or close to) when scanning my music folder. Songbird, Amarok 1, and Rhythmbox all scan properly. What gives?

amarokcollectionscanner -r works fine.

Running amarok --debug shows a bunch of MySQL duplicate entry errors for certain albums and genres.
I'm letting it run now to see if it will finish... will post relevant output.

Here is part of the output from amarok --debug

What exact version of Amarok are you talking about?

Amarok version: 2.2.0

This is most likely fixed in Amarok 2.2.1, to be released today.

Indeed! Finally, this is the first release of Amarok 2 that I can actually use!

Spoke too soon of course... All the songs I add to my iPod with Amarok are copied over with length 60:00:00 or higher. I guess I should wait till 2.2.2?

similar problem here, amarok crashes before the scan finishes (~70% for me)

Could you please start Amarok in a konsole with the option

Code: Select all

amarok -d --nofork

and check which tracks it is choking on? Assuming you talk about current Amarok 2.2.1 of course.

yes, it's 2.2.1 on kubuntu 9.10

I forgot to mention that the process amarokcollectionscanner survives to amarok, but if I let it run, and then restart amarok, no collection is present

Looks like it's **** out while loading some playlists. Do this (backup first!):

Code: Select all

rm -rf ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok
rm -rf ~/.kde/share/config/amarok*

This. I found the .m3u file that screwed up everything and I deleted it, then the scan worked. Thank you!

I had the same problem, then after deleting all the m3u files from my music collection amarok would be able to scan beyon 77% to crash at 98% of scanning

On suse 11.2, the earlier version of amarok that comes with the distro dvd works perfectly

That's a known bug in the "Bias" code, it should be fixed in Git Master (to become Amarok 2.2.3).

What you could do to fix this particular problem: Try to find the one file that is causing the crash, and remove it. In this file you can find the last song that the scanner tried to process:

Code: Select all

~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/collection_scan.log
