[mythtv-users] Issues with 0.25

[Michael Watson]

Firstly, I know that 0.25 is still under development.  This is not a whine.

System Setup:

MBE - Ubuntu 10.04 Server  2.6.32-38-server, x86_64, MythBuntu Repos -  
2:0.25.0~master.20120226.a3d9891-0ubuntu0mythbuntu1
SBE/FE - Mythbuntu 10.04  2.6.32-39-generic, x86_64, MythBuntu Repos -  
2:0.25.0~master.20120226.a3d9891-0ubuntu0mythbuntu1
FE - Ubuntu 10.04 Server 2.6.32-38-generic-pae, MythBuntu Repos - 
2:0.25.0~master.20120226.a3d9891-0ubuntu0mythbuntu1


Unable to add new recording rules using 'mythfrontend'  [TV - Schedule 
Recordings - Program Guide -> M -> Record This].  No errors are 
reported, and the new recording rule is NOT created.
I can create new recording rules using MythWeb successfully.

Unable to use Downloadable Themes
     Update Downloadable Themes works,
     Selecting a Downloadable theme reports "ERROR Downloading Theme 
package on master backend"

Most commercial flagging jobs fail with status code 139, a few have 
failed with status code 130.  Currently running one of the failed jobs 
with gdm debugging enabled.  I will upload when this job finishes (Its 
taking much longer than usual commflag job)
When Rerunning the commflag on the failed jobs, most run successfully, 
but some still fail with 'status code 139'

I have had to increase the max_connections for mysql to 100 (from 60 
that work perfectly well under 0.24-fixes) to prevent the MBE from 
failing and reporting  "Driver error was [1/1040]:#012QMYSQL: Unable to 
connect#012Database error was:#012Too many connections"
I have noticed that the MBE has used (backend upto 50 connections, 
commflag 2 connections), the SBE/FE (backend 29 connections, frontend 7 
Connections, commflag 2 connections), and the FE upto 7 Connections.


Since increasing the max_connections for mysql to 100, it has been very 
stable apart from the commercial flagging issue (I can live with that, 
it has not been very accurate here for a loong time.)

If anybody has any suggestions (or wants more information) on these 
issues, I am happy to provide / try out any.
