Codec Engine GenServer -- can't open

I get the following error when I try to open the GenServer utility:

InternalError: can't find /mnt/sata2/opt/ti/bios_5_41_01_09/packages/ti/bios/rta/package.xdc

Why is it looking for that package?  I see that the corresponding package.xdc file does not have read permissions (separate issue with BIOS installer I think).  However, I don't understand why it's even looking for that package.  Correcting the permissions allows it to open though I'm trying to figure out if there is more than one issue.

  • When Genserver is started, all packages on the package path are queried for modules that inherit ICodec. These are then displayed in the 'Codec Modules' list in Step 1 of the wizard.  An unreadable package should not crash the wizard, though. Which versions of Xdctools and Codec Engine are you using?

  • Joe,

    It didn't crash the wizard, but the wizard wouldn't start.  It popped up an error message about not finding that specific package.xdc file.  I marked this thread as a "discussion" rather than a "question" because this doesn't bother me all that much.  Mainly I wanted to just log the issue in case anyone else ran into it.  It was probably my own fault because the permissions were wrong for my BIOS install.  This is with codec_engine_2_25_01_06 and xdctools_3_16_03_36.

    I wouldn't worry any more about it.  I've got better things to occupy your time.  :)
