Well, I found a really nice HTTP sniffer program at http://analyzer.polito.it/ and I think I see the problem with YADB lookups from my machine:

YADB Request from MC:

GET /cgi-bin/cgi-lookup.cgi?hash=1744079350&offsets=150,27005,48447,71330,94060,118377,140080,141652,167045,191765 HTTP 1.1


Same Request generated from Internet Explorer:

GET /cgi-bin/cgi-lookup.cgi?hash=1744079350&offsets=150,27005,48447,71330,94060,118377,140080,141652,167045,191765 HTTP/1.1


*** Notice the '/' missing between HTTP and 1.1 in the YADB request ***

The request from Internet Explorer returns the correct information.


Sting 1999 Rock 2936 Sting 1 1999 Rock Sting 2 1999 Rock Sting 3 1999 Rock Sting 4 1999 Rock Sting 5 1999 Rock Sting 6 1999 Rock Sting 7 1999 Rock Sting 8 1999 Rock Sting 9 1999 Rock Sting 10 1999 Rock


I can send a more detailed log if needed...

Hope this helps!

It does help.  We'll check.  Thanks very much.

This is for a track lookup, right?  Not a CD lookup?

[smackbadger]

No, this was a CD lookup.

However, it seems the '/' is missing from all network connection headers on my machine including:

Please post your system info from MC help.

Is it a European system?  Can something be stripping out the "/" ?

This is a US based machine.  All MJ8's and MC9's up through 9.0.88 worked as far as I can remember.

System Info:
Media Center Registered 9.0.122 -- C:\Program Files\Media Center\

Microsoft Windows XP  Workstation 5.1 Service Pack 1 (Build 2600)
AMD Athlon 1736 MHz MMX / Memory: Total - 490 MB, Free - 63 MB

 Use playback settings: Yes /  Normalization: None

The machine is a Nforce based MSI motherboard with an Althlon XP2100+ and 512MB of memory.  I have no firewall software running on the machine.  So, the only thing that could be removing the '/' is MC or Windows XP.  Internet Explorer is sending it's requests with the '/', so I doubt it's the OS.

We think it's fixed in build 123, just out.

Please let us know and thanks very much for the great detective work.

Well, good, but you deserve a lot of credit for approaching the problem with such patience and tenacity.  We had looked and looked but couldn't find it.

The problem was that we had a newer MS network component on the testing machines, and it was adding the slash when it found it missing, so we could never duplicate the problem.

I hope that this may solve some of the other network problems we've had in the last 3 weeks.

Again, Thank YOU!
