nielm's Web Server getting HTTP ERROR 500

[clarenceb5]

Recently installed SageTV from scratch on a new Windows 7 PC, everything as of now works great except for 1 thing that is bugging me and I can't figure out what is missing, I've used nielm's web server before and not encountered this error. I have a problem with nielm's web server, when I click on a show in the guide grid I get the following error:

"HTTP ERROR 500

I am using the latest web server plugin, I was getting this error with the default java version that gets installed with SageTV and also still getting this error after updating java to the latest version.

If anyone can point me in the right direction to a solution, I would very much appreciate it.

Thanks.

uninstall all plugins then reinstall

[clarenceb5]

OK here is what I did : I uninstalled all my plugins, did a reboot of the pc, then installed "jetty web server", then rebooted again, then installed "SageTV Web Interface" and that's it nothing else and now I'm getting this every time I click on a TV show title anywhere in the "SageTV Web Interface":

And here is what I got:

Don't know if it's related, but I had issues with Java permissions when this happened to me once....rolling back to a prior java version worked at the time...might be something to try

[clarenceb5]

OK so I've tried uninstalling java, installing an older release and still getting the error, so I updated java again to the latest and still getting the error. One thing I've noticed is that I'm not getting this error when I click on a program name when using the "SageTV Mobile Web Interface" I don't get an error when I click on a program name.

[clarenceb5]

Nobody has any other input or suggestions on this error? I've tried several times removing all my plugins, rebooting my system with no plugins installed, reinstalling only the jetty web server and sagetv web interface, removing current release of java and installing an older release. Nothing I have tried seems to resolve this, is there a classpath I could be missing?

[clarenceb5]

I finally resolved this problem but not by figuring out what is causing it and fixing it but by completely removing SageTV from the system, deleting all sagetv and frey technology folders. Reboot system and then start installation all over again. When I was re-installing all of the SageTV plugins that I like, I tested the SageTV WebServer after each and every plugin install, I noticed that installing plugin SageTV Recording Extender caused a problem with the SageTV WebServer so I removed SRE, the problem went away so I tried installing SRE again and it's fine now. I didn't write down or record the problem that came up when I first installed SRE I'm just happy it finally went away and now I don't have anymore problems like this with SageTV WebServer.

Thanks to everyone who provided a suggestion.
