SteveH0Has anyone successfully restored a mythconverg_backup.pl ??.tgz file?  I need to understand WHERE to run the restore program.  I have tried from my home directory and in the /var/lib/mysql directory, and both tell me that they can't do it.  While we're at it, should I be running it as me or root?  Running ubuntu 12.04 as the server.00:18
KwisherSteveH0: type the whole path to the executable00:40
Kwisherhave you read this: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore00:41
Kwisheron xubuntu it is located here: /usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_backup.pl00:43
Kwisherif you are restoring you need to run mythconverg_restore.pl00:44
Kwisherread the wiki, i've been successful using it in the past00:44
SteveH0Sorry, I did use the complete path /usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_backup.pl and /usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_mythconverg_restore.pl.  I run the backup from my home directory as me, but when I try to run the restore, I get <http://pastebin.com/TKEPrZzn>.   Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?  I ran mc.sql after starting back.  This is to repair after a disk crash, and on a new disk.01:03
SteveH0My question is,if I run the backup from my home directory, should I also run the restore from there?  I read the wiki, but it is still muddy in my mind.01:04
qwebirc75918O.k. I am sooooo confused on how to proceed.05:23
qwebirc75918I want Mythtv .27, but do I really need .27? .25 is still the current version in the Ubuntu apt repository...05:24
qwebirc75918So to get .27 I downloaded Mythbuntu, but Mythbuntu installer will not run on my hardware. So I had to install Ubuntu Server ALT.05:25
qwebirc75918Now, should I just install .25 with apt, should I run  "sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mythbuntu/0.27" and install from the mythbuntu repo, or should I go all the way and install X and the mythbuntu control centre?05:27
qwebirc75918The MythTv website says that .25 is EoL, and .26 is end of support, but it also states that the easiest way to install and run is from a pre-configured package. (again, the pre-configured package would be .25)05:42
qwebirc75918Anyone have advice for me?05:43
tgm4883qwebirc75918, Just add the 0.27 repo, do an apt-get update and install mythtv06:12
tgm4883no need to install 0.25 first06:12
humehi... I'm about to install mythbuntu on a client machine, where the server runs ubuntu 13.04. I am a bit confused by the versions - the latest mythbuntu is 12.04, but the latest ubuntu 13.10. Does this cause a problem?10:54
