[00:08] <deansouth8> Lots of little perl errors in .26 and mythbuntu. Is there a tried and true distro where everything just works? Lol.
[00:12] <tgm4883> deansouth8, where are these perl errors?
[00:15] <deansouth8> Today it's in archive files DVD...  log viewer says typeerror corcing to Unicode need string or buffer artwork found
[00:17] <tgm4883> deansouth8, honestly, I didn't even know the archive dvd thing still existed
[00:20] <deansouth8> Are you on .27? Is everyone?
[00:20] <tgm4883> i'm on 0.26
[22:54] <Shadow__X> I keep getting this error /etc/cron.weekly/mythtv-database:
[22:54] <Shadow__X> ERROR: DBBackupDirectory not specified, stopped at /usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_backup.pl line 856.
[22:54] <Shadow__X> run-parts: /etc/cron.weekly/mythtv-database exited with return code 255 but when i run the backup script it find the directory no problem
[23:01] <tgm4883> Shadow__X, what user is that running as?
[23:05] <Shadow__X> tgm4883: how can i check
[23:06] <tgm4883> Shadow__X, it's probably running as root
[23:06] <tgm4883> so you should su to root and see if the issue persists
[23:06] <Shadow__X> thats what i am thinking but how can i check to see who it is running as?
[23:06] <Shadow__X> just check the crontab?
[23:16] <tgm4883> Shadow__X, well it's in /etc/cron.weekly/ so it should be root
[23:16] <Shadow__X> right so login to root and run the command thats in cron.weekly?
[23:16] <tgm4883> you could open the file to be sure
[23:16] <tgm4883> Shadow__X, yea
[23:21] <Shadow__X> so i logged into root and did ./mythtv-database thats in cron.weekly and it gave me the same error
[23:21] <Shadow__X> i know the user i log in to can do it fine so i am guessing i need to make another config file for it
[23:26] <Shadow__X> where do i put the config for backup under root
[23:33] <tgm4883> Shadow__X, IIRC, it needs to be in the home dir
[23:33] <tgm4883> so for root, that is /root
[23:44] <Shadow__X> so i created a bacuprc but it still throwing up the error
[23:49] <Shadow__X> nvm got it. Forgot to put backuprc in .mythtv under root
[23:49] <Shadow__X> should of known better thanks tgm4883
