Adding Itunes library to UMS.

Post by pinballreed »

I have my itunes library on a network share and am using UMS on the same computer that I am also running iTunes windows. When I attempt to add the Itunes library, it does not allow specification of a file, just a folder.

This is the error I am seeing in the log file.

16:19:37 ERROR Something went wrong with the iTunes Library scan:
xmlwise.XmlParseException: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; systemId: file:/M:/itunes/; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 1; Content is not allowed in prolog.
....snip....

The file: iTunes Library.xml exists in the folder I specified.

Thoughts?

I have seen the message "Content is not allowed in prolog" but never found the exact cause.
It would be helpful to see your full logs to know what is happening. See the link in my sig.
Logs are important for us to help, Please follow This Link before asking for support. Just a forum cleaner, Will help if I can but no expert.
