[04:26] <olejl> After 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?
[09:34] <skiwithpete> sup
[09:48] <skiwithpete> is anyone around to answer some questions about format types
[10:01] <skiwithpete> and help for HD compatible cards in NZ
[10:10] <skiwithpete> anyone alive in here?
[10:21] <qwebirc89573> Hi.  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 struggling
[10:21] <qwebirc89573> I try to browse pictures using the IMAGE GALLERY, but I get "mythgallery cannot find its start directory"
[16:40] <patdk-wk> just wanted to say thanks for the new mythtv-updates :)
[16:41] <patdk-wk> cause I totally forgot what I was thinking last night, and had a real question related to that was :)
[16:54] <baggar11> What's the trick with using Auto-Builds and updating to 0.24? Everytime I finish the upgrade, it breaks the mysql connection...
[16:58] <superm1> elaborate on breaks
[16:58] <superm1> as in mysql stops?
[16:58] <superm1> or as in mythtv-backend restarts
[16:59] <superm1> baggar11, ^
[17:07] <baggar11> superm1: when I use the test connection button in MCC, it gives me X's.
[17:08] <baggar11> mysql seems to be running
[17:08] <superm1> baggar11, oh hmm.  i wonder if it's potentially something broken in MCC though
[17:08] <superm1> is it working otherwise?
[17:09] <baggar11> going into mythtv setup works, and retains values. How else should I test that?
[17:09] <superm1> and odes mythfrontend?
[17:10] <baggar11> this is a backend only box, separate frontend, doesn't connection after 0.24 upgrade too
[17:11] <superm1> okay so is the backend actually running?  status mythtv-backend
[17:11] <baggar11> says it's running
[17:11] <superm1> what's the failure on the frontend say then?
[17:13] <baggar11> I 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 backend
[17:14] <superm1> well that can mean all sorts of problems
[17:14] <superm1> binding to the wrong IP, maybe the IP changed
[17:14] <superm1> wrong database information
[17:14] <superm1> although it would be surprising that this was caused by the upgrade
[17:14] <baggar11> doubled checked the ip in mythtv-setup, still the same as the ifconfig source
[17:15] <baggar11> superm1: 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 now
[17:15] <superm1> and double check that the database stuff in ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt frontend matches /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt on backend
[17:15] <baggar11> superm1: I remember checking that, it checked out
[17:16] <baggar11> what does the "test connection" button actual do in the MCC?
[17:16] <baggar11> what else can I check?
[17:16] <superm1> uses the python bindings to try to connect to mysql on the backend
[17:16] <baggar11> literally 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] <superm1> check 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] <superm1> i'm wondering if one of the debconf dialogs is supressing and changing that
[17:17] <superm1> in MCC is the "MySQL service" drop down still enabled?
[17:17] <baggar11> I'm seeing bindings on 3306, which is default mysql and the 6543 and 6544
[17:18] <baggar11> mysql service is enabled in MCC
[17:18] <tgm4883> I'm not using the MCC portion, but every time I upgrade my 0.24 backend only machine it is fine
[17:18] <baggar11> tgm4883: I've been trying auto-builds for two weeks now with no luck
[17:19] <baggar11> I noticed that the bind address in my.conf is 127.0.0.1. should I change that to actual IP?
[17:19] <superm1> baggar11, can you try from a python console just running this:
[17:19] <superm1> import MythTV
[17:20] <superm1> args = { 'SecurityPin' : pin }
[17:20] <superm1> db_base = MythTV.MythDBBase(args=args)
[17:20] <superm1> oh and set pin to '0000'
[17:20] <baggar11> superm1: mythtv setup says pin is still 0000
[17:20] <superm1> i mean in the python console quick test
[17:21] <superm1> that should tell you waht's wrong hopefully
[17:21] <baggar11> do I just go into the python console with "python" at the command line?
[17:22] <tgm4883> yes
[17:22] <baggar11> hmm, this gave an error --> args = { 'SecurityPin' : pin }
[17:22] <baggar11> NameError: name 'pin' is not defined
[17:23] <superm1> pin = '000'
[17:23] <superm1> and try again
[17:23] <tgm4883> 0000
[17:23] <tgm4883> 4 zeros
[17:23] <superm1> ydah 4
[17:23] <superm1> pin = '0000'
[17:23] <tgm4883> args = { 'SecurityPin' : '0000' }
[17:25] <baggar11> ok, that works
[17:25] <baggar11> now the db_base line failed
[17:25] <baggar11> AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'MythDBBase'
[17:28] <baggar11> thanks for all the help guys
[19:16] <baggar11> superm1: and tgm4883: I installed a new backend with frontend
[19:16] <baggar11> I noticed that the frontend portion asks you to upgrade the database upon auto-build install and reboot.
[19:17] <baggar11> local frontend is now connecting to backend
[19:17] <superm1> baggar11, 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 changed
[19:18] <superm1> just for testing the connection and what not
[19:18] <baggar11> MCC is still not connecting via the "test connection" though
[19:18] <superm1> could you please file a bug (apport-bug mythbuntu-control-centre) and it can be investigated closer?
[19:18] <superm1> that would explain too why it wasn't caught before
[19:18] <superm1> so i think this also means it was a red herring for your real problem
[19:18] <baggar11> I'll have to play around with this more. My hope is to have a backend only virtual machine with several frontends on 0.24.
[19:19] <baggar11> sure
[19:47] <dewman> howdy....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?
[19:49] <dewman> I could probably pull it off the live cd ( now just gotta find it)
[20:12] <tgm4883> dewman, did you find my.cnf?
[20:13] <dewman> tgm4883, Yep....I got one.... =)
[20:13] <tgm4883> ok
[20:13] <dewman> made the changes and its now back up.....
[20:16] <dewman> was trying to make mythweb respond a little quicker....
[20:34] <patdk-wk> hmm, I never really liked the idea of virtualizing the backend
[20:34] <patdk-wk> dont trust it to bind the pci/pcie cards to the vm correctly for that to work
[21:14] <tgm4883> patdk-wk, usb/ethernet tuners
[21:33] <rhpot1991> eh, I wouldn't virtualize
[22:05] <baggar11> patdk-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.
[22:48] <castlec> is anyone available to help me troubleshoot my myth frontend crashing and bringing down my whole login session?
[22:49] <tgm4883> castlec, yes, switch playback profiles
[22:49] <castlec> i'm on cpu+
[22:49] <tgm4883> really?
[22:49] <castlec> really
[22:49] <tgm4883> I've seen that happen multiple times and it always has to do with VDPAU
[22:49] <tgm4883> or rather, one of the VDPAU profiles
[22:49] <castlec> i guess i'm special :)
[22:50] <castlec> i'm on an amd machine.
[22:50] <tgm4883> hmm
[22:51] <castlec> i haven't found anything indicative in the logs i've looked at.  any ideas where to look?
[22:51] <tgm4883> castlec, I'd probably start with grabbing logs via mythbuntu-log-grabber
[22:51] <tgm4883> i won't be much help though, at work right now
[22:52] <castlec> i haven't played with it in a few days.  do you think i should reproduce before pulling logs?
[22:52] <tgm4883> yes
[22:54] <castlec> alright.  i'll disappear then for a few minutes when my system crashes
[22:56] <castlec> tgm4883, i'm getting a timeout on the log pull
[22:56] <tgm4883> hmm
[22:56] <tgm4883> what version are you on?
[22:57] <castlec> mythbuntu?
[22:57] <castlec> 10.10
[22:57] <tgm4883> yea
[22:57] <tgm4883> ok
[22:57] <castlec> there is log there though
[22:57] <tgm4883> in /tmp?
[22:57] <tgm4883> or on pastebin?
[22:58] <castlec> in /tmp/mythbuntu.diag
[22:58] <castlec> you want me to post it up?
[22:58] <tgm4883> castlec, yea
[23:02] <castlec> tgm4883 pastebin isn't being so nice. any alternatives?
[23:04] <tgm4883> !pastebin
[23:04] <Zinn> when 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] <tgm4883> castlec, try that
[23:04] <tgm4883> if you google pastebin, there are a few
[23:05] <tgm4883> brb
[23:05] <castlec> yeah, i found a table of options on wikipedia.  looks like the mythbuntu subdomain is suffering the same
[23:11] <castlec> tgm http://tinypaste.com/9cab3d
[23:11] <Zinn> [tinypaste.com] Mythfrontend Crashes Login Session - 9cab3d
[23:26] <tgm4883> castlec, whats the issue? Seems to be working fine here
[23:27] <castlec> with pastebin? not sure.  i'd guess this log file is too big
[23:27] <castlec> anyway, tinypaste took it. url is above
[23:28] <castlec> this looks like the crash
