Remote Client to Mac mini Library loading issues

(1/2) > >>

TP1964:
Running into a really strange issue - I have my main library on my Mac mini. I'm using a MacBook Pro with Media Center loaded as a client. The MacBook doesn't connect to the media server - yet, JRemote connects on my phone - connected to the same network - and (and this is the weird part) - if I completely delete Media Center for Mac off of the MacBook and completely reinstall it- then connect to the remote library, it works - until I shutdown Media Center - once I do that, the next time I start Media Center, it says "Error Connecting to Library" - If I delete and reinstall - it works again.

During this entire time both JPanel (From the very same MacBook) and JRemote (on my phone connected to the same network) works without an issue.

Any ideas?

TP1964:
In case it's helpful - I produced a log while trying to load the library and this seems to be the pertinent area of the error log:

I'll also add that reboots of both the server and the MacBook Pro does not clear this issue.

JimH:
Same version on both sides?

Any old version running a Media Server?

TP1964:
I had .45 on the macbook and .44 on the server - updated to .45 on the server. Same issue. Almost like it's timing out waiting for some response. It's a fairly large library 120k plus songs but I wasn't having this problem with my Windows server.

Just odd that JRemote and JPanel are working without a glitch on the same network - so I think that eliminates any connectivity issues (firewall, ports, etc.)

TP1964:
Just for good measure I tried to connect via IP address:port as well - same thing.
