| hR13 | hi I have a question about db restore. I have just installed 1404 mythbuntu and restored my old db from my previos 10.04.3 installatin, I used this command "./mythconverg_restore.pl --drop_database --create_database --directory /home/myth/MythTVDB.Backup/ --filename mythconverg-1264-20140517095458.sql.gz" do I need to do anything more before I start mythbackend ? | 09:02 |
|---|---|---|
| patrickskillin | Good morning all | 17:38 |
| patrickskillin | I'm having a permision problem on a mythbuntu VM | 17:39 |
| patrickskillin | I'm trying to mount a cifs share from a mac server and I cannot get the mythtv backend to write to the mounted directory | 17:39 |
| patrickskillin | any ideas? | 17:39 |
| Jay2k1 | can you be a bit more specific about "cannot get the backend to write there"? | 17:57 |
| Jay2k1 | i.e. error messages? something in the logs? | 17:57 |
| patrickskillin | sure I mount a shared direcotry | 17:57 |
| patrickskillin | then I've checked permision and its mythtv mythv | 17:57 |
| Jay2k1 | can you write there from the command line? | 17:58 |
| Jay2k1 | i.e. sudo -u mythtv touch /path/to/your/share/test.file | 17:58 |
| patrickskillin | but when I configure the backend and set /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/TV as the default directory | 17:58 |
| patrickskillin | it tells me it can not write the .test file | 17:58 |
| patrickskillin | let me try that | 17:59 |
| patrickskillin | that works | 18:00 |
| Jay2k1 | that is strange | 18:00 |
| Jay2k1 | is there anything related to that in the mythbackend logfile? | 18:02 |
| patrickskillin | yes it cann't write to the directory | 18:03 |
| Jay2k1 | hmm, next thing i'd try would be mounting it somewhere else | 18:04 |
| Jay2k1 | i.e. mkdir /cifstest and mount it there | 18:04 |
| Jay2k1 | then try to set that as a path | 18:05 |
| patrickskillin | i've tried mounting is a few different places same results | 18:06 |
| patrickskillin | let me look at the permisions again | 18:06 |
| Jay2k1 | what confuses me the most is that via command line it works fine | 18:07 |
| patrickskillin | drwxr-xr-x 2 mythtv mythtv 0 May 17 12:59 TV | 18:07 |
| patrickskillin | there is the results from ls -l | 18:08 |
| Jay2k1 | well that looks correct... to completely rule out a (file system) permissions issue you could chmod a+w it | 18:08 |
| patrickskillin | ok | 18:08 |
| patrickskillin | let me try that | 18:08 |
| Jay2k1 | but i'm afraid that won't help... | 18:08 |
| patrickskillin | ok | 18:09 |
| patrickskillin | interesting, appears to be working now after a reboot | 18:34 |
