MinimServer 2.2 crash by adding a Song to Melco SW 4.5 - soundsgood - 15-12-2025 11:54

Hi, I added the following album (The Köln Concert (Live at the Opera, Köln, 1975)) to my Melco (SW 4.5). When I rescan, the following error occurs (see screenshot and log file), after which I can no longer access the server via my Linn system. SongKong 12 tells me that everything is OK with the file names and metadata. If I delete the album and rescan, everything is fine.
Best Thomas

Thanks for letting me know about this. A similar problem was reported by another user when doing a search (see this post).

I have a fix for this but I haven't yet been to test it because I haven't seen the problem myself. Are you able to upload the album to my FTP server so that I can test with it and verify the fix? If you can do this, I will send you details of my FTP server by PM.

After changing „Köln" to „Cologne“ in the file name, everything works again. It was probably due to the specia germanl character "ö“... Many thanks and best, Thomas

I can upload the album to your FTP server. To do so, I need the FTP address... Best regards, Thomas

I am very surprised that this error message could be caused by an album containing filenames with umlauts. I have sent you a PM with details of my FTP server. Many thanks for your help with this.

I have made a change in MinimServer update 265 (just released, see this announcement) which I hope will fix this problem. Please try the album with umlauts and let me know if it is working.
