I dunno if this helps but the version of CDEX I'm running is 1.70 beta 1. So if you're running a different version you might try installing the one I am and see if that doesn't work. If you're already running it, go into your settings with f4, and in the remote cddb tab, set your server to

Under Local CDDB settings, I have the first, third and fourth items checked. All other items are unchecked. Under Remote CDDB Settings, the only item checked is Auto Connect. Are those what you have checked? Failing this NCH software www.nch.com has a free ripper that works reasonably well.

CDEx doesn't use Gracenote by default, you have to install a different program called player which you can find on the gracenote site and this will allow you to export information from Gracenote to CDEx and, yes, this still works fine. GraceNote is far better than FreeCDDB, but both still exist
