Forum - KeyError in upstart-bridge/service.py

Hello,
I am using XBian distribution, but when "logged in" to a profile, an upstart-bridge-related error appears in the kodi notification box (bottom right corner). Otherwise all seems to work ...

This is (the only error) message in kodi.log:

Code:

ERROR: EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<--

                                             - NOTE: IGNORING THIS CAN LEAD TO MEMORY LEAKS!

                                            Error Type: <type 'exceptions.KeyError'>

                                                json_version = json_response['result']['version']

                                            KeyError: ('result',)

                                            -->End of Python script error report<--

Is this something for a bug report? What is the purpose of upstart-bridge service, btw?

Thank you very much.
Best regards,
D.

How do you get this error message?

I'm using profile(s) since years but never got this error.

AFAIR there is already an issue report on github (maybe closed)

The purpose of this module is sending Kodi events to upstart

Well, I don't know, to be honest. It just appears on the screen as soon as Kodi is started (I was wrong in the original post - the error appears BEFORE a profile is selected).

I made some photos of the error message box, I just don't know how to put them here (seems that external link is accepted only).

Hmmm, I did not find any relevant info. Could you, please, point me to the error?

Yes, I expect so :-) I hoped for a bit more details about what type of info in passed from kodi to upstart (or vice versa) - if it is related to a udev messages or services startup/stop. But it is just my curiosity, this answer is not particularly important :-)

Here they are:

shows the error message (in Czech) saying: Error in XBian XBMC-Upstart bridge. More information in log"

Just after his error, "OK" message box appears:

Ah, I see. You have this issue

See above

I'm using autologin and so I do not have this issue
