olejlAfter I upgraded to 0.24-fixes, mythweb has stopped working. If I go to http://<IP>/mythweb, I only get a blank page. No error msg. I tried to uninstall and install mythweb also. Anyone know what could be the problem?04:26

qwebirc89573Hi.  I am a complete Linux, and Mythbuntu novice!  I just installed it onto a pc to try and see if I can figure it out.  I dont have a TV card yet - but I am already struggling10:21
qwebirc89573I try to browse pictures using the IMAGE GALLERY, but I get "mythgallery cannot find its start directory"10:21
patdk-wkjust wanted to say thanks for the new mythtv-updates :)16:40
patdk-wkcause I totally forgot what I was thinking last night, and had a real question related to that was :)16:41
baggar11What's the trick with using Auto-Builds and updating to 0.24? Everytime I finish the upgrade, it breaks the mysql connection...16:54
superm1elaborate on breaks16:58
superm1as in mysql stops?16:58
superm1or as in mythtv-backend restarts16:58
superm1baggar11, ^16:59
baggar11superm1: when I use the test connection button in MCC, it gives me X's.17:07
baggar11mysql seems to be running17:08
superm1baggar11, oh hmm.  i wonder if it's potentially something broken in MCC though17:08
superm1is it working otherwise?17:08
baggar11going into mythtv setup works, and retains values. How else should I test that?17:09
superm1and odes mythfrontend?17:09
baggar11this is a backend only box, separate frontend, doesn't connection after 0.24 upgrade too17:10
superm1okay so is the backend actually running?  status mythtv-backend17:11
baggar11says it's running17:11
superm1what's the failure on the frontend say then?17:11
baggar11I don't have my frontend available at the moment to give you exact message. it would basically ask me for language on boot and then tell me it couldn't connect to remote backend17:13
superm1well that can mean all sorts of problems17:14
superm1binding to the wrong IP, maybe the IP changed17:14
superm1wrong database information17:14
superm1although it would be surprising that this was caused by the upgrade17:14
baggar11doubled checked the ip in mythtv-setup, still the same as the ifconfig source17:14
baggar11superm1: I've been trying to do a clean install of 10.04 and 10.10 with an auto-builds upgrade to 0.24 mythtv, with no luck for a couple weeks now17:15
superm1and double check that the database stuff in ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt frontend matches /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt on backend17:15
baggar11superm1: I remember checking that, it checked out17:15
baggar11what does the "test connection" button actual do in the MCC?17:16
baggar11what else can I check?17:16
superm1uses the python bindings to try to connect to mysql on the backend17:16
baggar11literally the only thing I've done so far is install mythbuntu as backend only, then apt-get updates, and then auto-builds to 0.24. Breaks everytime...17:16
superm1check and make sure that mysql is actually bound to the right ip (you can use nmap to see if it's listed as an open port)17:16
superm1i'm wondering if one of the debconf dialogs is supressing and changing that17:16
superm1in MCC is the "MySQL service" drop down still enabled?17:17
baggar11I'm seeing bindings on 3306, which is default mysql and the 6543 and 654417:17
baggar11mysql service is enabled in MCC17:18
tgm4883I'm not using the MCC portion, but every time I upgrade my 0.24 backend only machine it is fine17:18
baggar11tgm4883: I've been trying auto-builds for two weeks now with no luck17:18
baggar11I noticed that the bind address in my.conf is 127.0.0.1. should I change that to actual IP?17:19
superm1baggar11, can you try from a python console just running this:17:19
superm1import MythTV17:19
superm1args = { 'SecurityPin' : pin }17:20
superm1db_base = MythTV.MythDBBase(args=args)17:20
superm1oh and set pin to '0000'17:20
baggar11superm1: mythtv setup says pin is still 000017:20
superm1i mean in the python console quick test17:20
superm1that should tell you waht's wrong hopefully17:21
baggar11do I just go into the python console with "python" at the command line?17:21
tgm4883yes17:22
baggar11hmm, this gave an error --> args = { 'SecurityPin' : pin }17:22
baggar11NameError: name 'pin' is not defined17:22
superm1pin = '000'17:23
superm1and try again17:23
tgm4883000017:23
tgm48834 zeros17:23
superm1ydah 417:23
superm1pin = '0000'17:23
tgm4883args = { 'SecurityPin' : '0000' }17:23
baggar11ok, that works17:25
baggar11now the db_base line failed17:25
baggar11AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'MythDBBase'17:25
baggar11thanks for all the help guys17:28
baggar11superm1: and tgm4883: I installed a new backend with frontend19:16
baggar11I noticed that the frontend portion asks you to upgrade the database upon auto-build install and reboot.19:16
baggar11local frontend is now connecting to backend19:17
superm1baggar11, about your error above - i think you hit the nail on the head for why MCC won't work properly  with 0.24. i think some of that interface changed19:17
superm1just for testing the connection and what not19:18
baggar11MCC is still not connecting via the "test connection" though19:18
superm1could you please file a bug (apport-bug mythbuntu-control-centre) and it can be investigated closer?19:18
superm1that would explain too why it wasn't caught before19:18
superm1so i think this also means it was a red herring for your real problem19:18
baggar11I'll have to play around with this more. My hope is to have a backend only virtual machine with several frontends on 0.24.19:18
baggar11sure19:19
dewmanhowdy....I made a goof and didnt back up my my.cnf when making some changes, is there a stock my.cnf located somewhere that I could pull down?19:47
dewmanI could probably pull it off the live cd ( now just gotta find it)19:49
tgm4883dewman, did you find my.cnf?20:12
dewmantgm4883, Yep....I got one.... =)20:13
tgm4883ok20:13
dewmanmade the changes and its now back up.....20:13
dewmanwas trying to make mythweb respond a little quicker....20:16
patdk-wkhmm, I never really liked the idea of virtualizing the backend20:34
patdk-wkdont trust it to bind the pci/pcie cards to the vm correctly for that to work20:34
tgm4883patdk-wk, usb/ethernet tuners21:14
rhpot1991eh, I wouldn't virtualize21:33
baggar11patdk-wk: I'll let you know how mine goes. I have a core i7 870 that I'm using to virtualize my backend, in conjunction with a dual tuner hdhomerun.22:05
castlecis anyone available to help me troubleshoot my myth frontend crashing and bringing down my whole login session?22:48
tgm4883castlec, yes, switch playback profiles22:49
castleci'm on cpu+22:49
tgm4883really?22:49
castlecreally22:49
tgm4883I've seen that happen multiple times and it always has to do with VDPAU22:49
tgm4883or rather, one of the VDPAU profiles22:49
castleci guess i'm special :)22:49
castleci'm on an amd machine.22:50
tgm4883hmm22:50
castleci haven't found anything indicative in the logs i've looked at.  any ideas where to look?22:51
tgm4883castlec, I'd probably start with grabbing logs via mythbuntu-log-grabber22:51
tgm4883i won't be much help though, at work right now22:51
castleci haven't played with it in a few days.  do you think i should reproduce before pulling logs?22:52
tgm4883yes22:52
castlecalright.  i'll disappear then for a few minutes when my system crashes22:54
castlectgm4883, i'm getting a timeout on the log pull22:56
tgm4883hmm22:56
tgm4883what version are you on?22:56
castlecmythbuntu?22:57
castlec10.1022:57

castlecin /tmp/mythbuntu.diag22:58
castlecyou want me to post it up?22:58
tgm4883castlec, yea22:58
castlectgm4883 pastebin isn't being so nice. any alternatives?23:02
tgm4883!pastebin23:04
Zinnwhen pasting more than 5 lines of data please use http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com so you don't flood the channel.  Then please post the link in the channel.23:04
tgm4883castlec, try that23:04
tgm4883if you google pastebin, there are a few23:04
tgm4883brb23:05
castlecyeah, i found a table of options on wikipedia.  looks like the mythbuntu subdomain is suffering the same23:05
