Latest snapshot is broken?! (Somewhat resolved)

[donpaul]

I decided to blow away my core since it barely works and is never used, and install the latest snapshot. Everything was OK until the final stages of setup when mythtv was installed. The system is stuck on installing pluto-mythtv-plugin. I searched the forum and see others having similar problems, and have tried a few suggestions to get it to work with no success (Obviously the install should at least work on it's own). I am still trying and will update if/when I get everything up. Has anyone gotten the latest snapshot to install? Any suggestions?

So after much frustration, I think I got a good install. I had to remove everything (hdhomerun, disk drives, zwave, etc) from the core, reboot, remove apt-get locks, run dpkg to clean up the errors, remove the mythtv-plugin post scripts so that dpkg regenerated them, and let everything get cleaned up. I then rebooted and plugged everything back in.

So I am thinking that during my next new install, I will not connect and try to configure all of the drives/lights/etc until after LMCE is installed, configured, and happy.

donpaul,

thank you for trying the snapshots, and being stubborn enough to wrangle through

Could you, and anyone else reading this, in the future provide the number of the snapshot (the last 6 digits of the filename). That way, people stumbling over a thread, don't have to crossreference dates with the list of snapshots.

Thanks.

Hi there, got same errors on last snapshot

DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Table 'mythconverg.storagegroup' doesn't exist at /usr/pluto/bin/mythtv_setup.pl line 26

Its a clean install

any ideas

LmceCape,

two things:

1) Open a new thread
2) In the post before your post, I asked a favor for people posting about snapshots. I'd really appreciate it, if you could try to follow my advise.

Thanks.

Will do
Thanks
