Rivendell: "No Exceptions Found"
- Thread starter SFM-Ptgal
- Start date
SFM-Ptgal said:Checked forums, tuts, mail lists, done everything stated and keep getting that message when generating logs. Everything (events, groups, etc) is pointed to the Service, template done. What might be the problem?
You really need to go to the rivendell wiki on this...but...
you are getting an immediate "no exceptions found", with no log generated...right...
check and see if you have the right service...if you didn't change anything, you likely have production.
did you make you events and everything under that...did you correctly name the log...
did you name the clocks, and did you put the correct 3 letter code in the clocks...
generally, if you have that correct, with proper access, you should be fine..
worse case, go to the wiki, and follow it thru...

- Production was removed. One service only.
did you make you events and everything under that...did you correctly name the log...
- All made for that service
did you name the clocks, and did you put the correct 3 letter code in the clocks...
-yes and yes
generally, if you have that correct, with proper access, you should be fine..
- yes, it isn't.
worse case, go to the wiki, and follow it thru...

I Inserted a load of new songs to the DB. Prior that, yesterday I managed to generate logs according to the clocks, though getting "No Exceptions Found" in the end.
After inserting the batch of songs, generating logs gives me the "No Exceptions Found" and a log that contains a single line saying "Chain to log" Nothing else. What have I done wrong?...

"No Exceptions Found" is actually a good message to get, if it actually fills out the logs..
Several things can yield an empty generated log.
Your "Service" is not enabled on your "Host". Open RD Admin and click Manage Services. Select the one that you are using and click Edit. Remember, Service is similar to mean program service or radio station, etc. So pick one now and use it for everything else.
In the Edit Service window click the Enable Hosts button. Make sure you see something like "localhost.localdomain" on the Enabled Hosts side. If it isn't, make sure you add it.
Go to RD LogManager and click on Events. Make sure you have an event in there called All Music or something similar - make one or use what you have.
Edit this event. In the Editing Event window, midway through the window find IMPORT, and make sure that 'Select from:' is checked. And that Music is selected from the drop down box. Make the title separation small if you dont have a lot of music. 'Must have code' can be blank to select all carts within the Music range.
First cart has a SEGUE transition.
Now click the Services List button at the bottom of this screen. Make sure the same Service name you are working with is selected. Hit ok.
Now click Edit Clocks in the RD Logmanager screen. Make a new clock, call it 247. You must add the Event to the Clock. So the event we made called All Music or whichever name you chose - we must add this to the clock. The trick here is that the "Event" really means one cart from the Music group. So click Add, select the All Music event, then start time is 00:00 end time is 03:00, so a 3min block, then repeat. So the next one is, 03:00 to 06:00, etc etc until you fill the hour. And you can adjust these spans later, to see what best fills the hour. This clock will fill the hour with music, it will probably be overfilled by too many songs but thats ok for now.
Again, click on the Services List in the Edit Clock windows make sure the same Service is selected for this clock. As you can see Events and Clocks and Grids dependent on a common SERVICE. It's a scalable system, this makes more sense when you have multiple stations and machines/servers to mange with a common cart library.
Click ok and get back to RD Logmanager screen. Click on grids, again select the Service you are working under and click Edit.
Now for this demo setup we are going to select the same Clock for each hour, every single day. Click ok.
Go back to RD Logmanager and select Generate Logs. Again, the Service needs to be selected as the same for your events, clocks and grids. Pick the current days date, or the following days date and click Create New Log.
If it takes some time and show a progress bar then you know its actually putting it together. It may say no exceptions at the end, if none of the "rules" were broken which are more advanced features found in the Events and Clocks pages. Go to RDAirPlay and Select a Log, you should see the name with the logs generated for date, description being the same and Service being the everything was created under.
Also - make sure RDAirPlay also shows the Service to be the same. For a single machine setup, you really only need to have one service. But eventually you can create many different clocks and events to use within clocks - then from grids you can run special clocks for certain times, etc - it's pretty good for not having to use an actual scheduling program.
I hope this helps some.

- All these steps were rechecked again. Still no luck. Is it the pedro-desktop that is messing it up? I used it on another "service" with success until I had a new batch of songs... Common to the several services I've setup.

- I have a single machine. I have the Host activated "pedro-desktop" (same as linux. Default?)

- When I change the host (after creating a fictional one) the generated logs from that "host" get a red cross.

If you have multiple host entries chances are only one of them are going to work. It shouldn't matter what you name the host, but the IP address is what is important. You should see a host that has its IP entered as 127.0.0.1 - that is pointing to your machine (internal), your database server SQL is also running here. If you added another host entry Rivendell will automatically increment the IP address. Which would look like 127.0.0.2 and is invalid.
Up and running...for now...
Glad to hear that. Backup databases often when/if you start decide to load more carts. Backup your /snd directory (or wherever you store cuts), and you can re-create most of your system if you have to start from scratch.
Does it worth an upgrade to version 2.X? Not that interested at the moment. Is there any download/setup link here
