HTTP Error 500 on PS3

Post by SteamyRV »

I've been using UMS for years and I've never encountered this problem before. When I booted my cpu today, UMS wouldn't detect my PS3. After trying several times to restart the server, the ps3 and the cpu, I upgraded to the newest version with a clean install. I also updated my Java to the latest version and redownloaded and clean installed the latest version of K-Lite Mega Codec Pack. Now my PS3 detects the servers, but when I try to play a file, I get a black screen with the message "Media center error: an HTTP (500) error has occured") and then I get taken back to the previous screen, this happens no matter which file I try to play. I checked my connection settings in my PS3, my router, and I see nothing. I've rebooted several times and I always get the same error. This has never happened before, I haven't changed routers or changed anything on my CPU since upgrading to Windows 10. I'm at a loss as to what the problem is. Can anyone help me?

Thank you!

I get this same error on my PS3 with windows 7 and the latest version of UMS. I can only play files if i go into the transcode folder and select the "No Transcode" option. When i swap to an old install of 3.2 it works just fine.

I had to give up and install Plex instead of UMS. Which sucks as I don't like it as much. Does anyone know of a permanent solution?

Thanks!

I know this is an old thread, but since I got the exact same error I don't consider this hijacking.

This error has occurred for me in the latest 7.6.2-version with a couple of files.
The log-window doesn't show anything, not even that I am trying to open/play the file(s).
I tried both the 7.6.2 "standard" version and the x64 "standalone" version.
I tried switching off external network and http engine but then the error just changes to a "regular" network error instead.
I switched back to 7.5.0 "standard" version and the files play just fine.

Hi guys, it would be really useful for us if you could provide two sets of logs - one from 7.6.2 and one from 7.5.0. Then we can see the difference and fix it

Seems this problem has still not been solved (version 8.1.0 and 8.2.0). :?
