Unable to connect to remote server.

  • All of the sudden I cannot update any of my libraries. I get the "Couldn't download information. Unable to connect to remote server. Would you like to continue scanning?" error. I've tried several different scraper sources, none will work for me. I know I'm connected to the internet because I'm still able to download new add-ons and whatnot. Not sure what would have changed?

    Running 8.0.1 currently, I had upgraded to 8.0.2 but when I discovered the problem I rolled back to 8.0.1 to see if that was the issue (it wasn't).

    Also not using any proxy.

    I find this a bit odd:

    Code
    10:01:45.072 T:139710185862912   ERROR: Create - Error creating /storage/.kodi/temp/scrapers
    10:01:45.072 T:139710185862912   ERROR: Create - Error creating special://temp/scrapers
    10:01:45.072 T:139710185862912   ERROR: Create - Error creating /storage/.kodi/temp/scrapers/metadata.tvdb.com/
    10:01:45.072 T:139710185862912   ERROR: Create - Error creating special://temp/scrapers/metadata.tvdb.com/

    I'm only guessing that when no temp files can be created, it will also not be possible to unzip scraper info.

  • Well tried doing a fresh install for the hell of it and the issue is resolved. Pretty annoying it seems like every couple months some new deal breaking issue arises and I have to spend hours/days getting it back to normal...oh well, thanks for the help Klojum
