if i run mythfilldatabase, the same thing happens, except on one line it says "zap2it page format looks ok but no program listings found (no available data yet?)"
then below it is the unretry-able error reading schedule for station 2 WCBS and it goes by each station....
i even upgraded to the latest mythtv from SF, well, i think i did, anyone know how i can check the version number, make sure im not on 5.10
and i have ran tv_grab_na myself, same thing happens as /etc/cron.daily/mythtv-backend.
No i havent tried running the mythtvfrontend yet, wanted to get this resolved first (one problem at a time lol).  And setup completed fine, no errors.
Thanks....
