mythfilldatabase error

[ogodt]

hi all

I have a problem with mythtv, i live in denmark and therefor have downloaded an copied the danish "tv_grab_dk_tdc.py" into mythtv
i can see it in setup and i can download the channels, but when i try to run mythfilldatabase i dont get any data in the programguide 

here is how it goes:

"linuxmce@dcerouter:~$ mythfilldatabase --file 0 -1 tv_video.xmltv

And when i then goes to mythweb it says in status:

"Last mythfilldatabase run started on 2009-01-04 12:59 and ended on 2009-01-04 12:59. mythfilldatabase ran, but did not insert any new data into the Guide for 1 of 1 sources. This can indicate a potential grabber failure.
There's guide data until 2009-01-10 01:35 (6 days)."

The file tv_video.xmltv is full, but there's no data at all 

Ihope there's someone who can help.

Hi,

try to look at mythtv.org and related forum archives... You'll find more info there...

This can be an issue with your Mythconverg database. There is more info in the Mythtv forums. http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/User_Manual:Periodic_Maintenance

All sorts of weird problems happen with Mythtv if the DB is stuffed up.

Go to Main KDE desktop Menu-settings, Mythtv backend setup, follow prompts to stop mythtv backend, go into Mythtv setup, exit without doing anything, then leave the panel "Do you want to run Mythfilldatabase" open, this stops mythtv running and stops LMCE from restarting it.  There is probabablu a more elegant way to do this but it works (and /etc/init.d/mythtvbackend stop does not).

Code: [Select]

sudo su - mythtv
cd /var/lib/mysql/mythconverg/
perl /usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/optimize_mythdb.pl
cd <wherever your grabber stores its output.xmltv file>
mythfilldatabase --file 1 7 output.xmltv
Now go to panel asking you if you want to run mythfilldatabase, answer "no"

See if you can see something now in your program listing. I like to use Mythweb, open the LMCE admin website from the main LMCE launcher, then you can just access the URL http://localhost/mythweb/

Good luck!
