Error "Could not find KODI LOG" while attempting to open ARES Wizard
The Ares Wizard seems to be failing due to internal error in their code to many users.
To be honest, I always say, if it doesn't work install another. But a I have a solution for ARES if you are getting issue installing it.
Due to the way ARES have made their programs, they are looking for the file name KODI.LOG in the KODI folder in order to continue the installation ( I call this bad programming or just simply.. not the best IDEA to install a program) This could because they are looking for methods to log the error-logs to the KODI.logs file.
However when using DBMC or using any other FORK for that matter including SPMC, the Log file is not named KODI.LOG.
best method is to rename the LOG file from DBMC to KODI.LOG.
Steps to do this in DroidBOX is as follows
1 - Open DBMC
2 - System/Filemanager
Go all the way down in A and click "Add a source"
In the Enter the Path enter "special://home"
Name Media Source "Home"
Press OK
3 - Open the new source you created called "HOME" in above step
Open Temp
Locate "dbmc.log"
Rename it to KODI.LOG
(You can do that by press C to open Menu on the file)
(or you can do that by clicking long press button with out let go until a menu shows up)
4 - Rename the file dbmc.log to kodi.log
Go back to ARES
Open ARES
If this works for you then please forward to the Ares team this link so they fix their programs in the future.
