Title: changes in mythweb don't stick
Post by: maverick0815 on June 08, 2012, 07:03:09 pm
I'm running 1004 for quite a while now. Today I did a full scan for channels in Mythtv. Usually I use mythweb to trim the channels down to what I want. To my surprise however, it seems that this approach is not working for me currently, because no matter what I try, none of the changes sticks after I want to submit the changes. So right now I'm using the channeleditor on my MD to do some kind of sorting, but that is very tedious.
So I'm guessing, there is an issue with permissions...I just don't know where.
Does anyone of you guys have an idea?

lucky me...I fixed it.
in /var/log/apache2/error.log is a warning like this:
Quote
PHP Warning:  Unknown: Input variables
exceeded 1000. To increase the limit change max_input_vars in php.ini.

as far as I found out there is a new variable in PHP :max_input_vars
I added it to php.ini and set it to 100000 and mythweb is working nicely again.

Damn! I could have used this info 3 months ago,... I went and edited my channels with my hybrid using the MythTV channel editor... And you are 100% right about tedious!

Hi

I have just experienced this exact same problem.

Can you tell me where and in which file to add this line?

I have tried adding it to the top of /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and it has made no difference.

Regards

LinuxMCE might use it's own php.ini location. Try using the locate command from a console...

You got the right file. Did you also restart your apache2?

You know, I was going to ask that too... I guess I just assumed that he had...
