libreelec9 - wakeonlan option forces kodi to crash at startup all the time

Hi,

I just upgraded to LE9 (from LE8.2.5, still with external media files & mysql database on a remote server) and it constantly crashes on startup and reboots into the "safe config"

After some unfruitful trials, I did reset LE9 to default and finally brought the system to life.

By turning on 1 by 1 my addons, settings, library connection, I was able to find te root cause for the startup crash.

As soon as I turn on the "try to waekeup remote servers on access" option in power savings, and reboot, it crashes on startup. this behavior is repeatable.

renaming the wakeonlan.xml file into .dontuse -> no more crash, everything works again. (well, except media access if the server goes to sleep)

Any idea what's going wrong?

As I saw some other posts where people reported trouble with shared libraries, maybe this helps the one ore the other to debug as well.

I have to admit i didn't fully understand how to submit via pastebin. (First time to submit a log for me)

But I created the log with debug enabled &followed the instructions from the wiki page link you provided and got this short url:

http://ix.io/1af1

This holds the full debug log (i hope).

“Luckily“ the crash is 100% reproducable...

chewitt...

any idea? is there anything else I should provide?

Actually, that's enabled already...

no, it doesn't. After some seconds, the system reboots itself and starts into safe mode...

here we go:

<onaccesswakeup>
    <netinittimeout>20</netinittimeout>
    <netsettletime>500</netsettletime>
    <wakeup>
        <host>ServCel</host>
        <mac>90:1B:0E:B9:5F:F0</mac>
        <pingport>0</pingport>
        <pingmode>0</pingmode>
        <timeout>300</timeout>
        <waitonline>40</waitonline>
        <waitonline2>40</waitonline2>
        <waitservices>5</waitservices>
    </wakeup>
</onaccesswakeup>

I just double-checked, it's the very same content I had in my (working) 8.2.5 file (did a backup before the upgrade)

unfortunately, no improvement.

i kind of doubt that the issue comes with the network itself, it's wired 1gb lan and worked well with same settings under 8.2.5

also, the wakeonlan crashes kodi/libreelec9 independently whether the server is up and running or hibernating. fyi, the magic packet doesn't make it to the server, seems to crash before sending...

i would be happy to try this patch

sorry for the stupid question... but how can i get this patch?

I tried to update from LE9.0.0. to LE9.0.0., no improvement. Probably a stupid idea...

Do I have to install some nightly build or do I have to be patient until the next release?

\o/

Thank you so much.

Just installed, boots like a charm with wol enabled again...

So it seems to work on a first glance
