When you are getting this error, could you please try to stop Core and press "Start LinuxMCE" button again? This looks like a LaunchManager <-> DCERouter issue to me.
Core stops just fine......and starts backup just fine, but it still fails to regenerate the skins.
As a note, I installed the OS and then used the 2 CD's to install LinuxMCE. I just wish there was more to the error or it logged more information somewhere.
Here is something I just noticed.....Is this correct? This is in the mysql database 'pluto_main' and it where the launcher checks the orbiters.

So I have 2 Orbiters and neither one of them have any "rendered" screens? I can't figure out how its checking for a "status", but it seems that I'm not rendering screens? whatever that means.
UPDATE:
I am not so sure that the core is fully starting up. When I start the core it takes a good 5 minutes for it to build the screens during stage 1. When it gets to stage 2 it sits at 1% for about 30 seconds, then modules start to load and it says the core is up. But after checking the database, I never move past rendering 1 of 220 during stage 2.
