[mythtv-users] Mythweb stopped working after upgrade from debian wheezy -> jessie [solved]

[Don]

As per subject, I found mythweb unavailable after the upgrade to jessie and
started to nut it out. The problem was in fact apache2 failing to start due
to some error in mythweb.conf . It would appear that the updated mythweb
.deb package (mythweb_1%3a0.27.4+fixes20150210-dmo1_all.deb) quietly
preserves the existing /etc/mythtv/mythweb.conf (from
mythweb_0.26.0+fixes20130416-dmo1_all.deb) and places the newer (required)
mythweb.conf as /etc/mythtv/mythweb.conf.dpkg-dist instead. Has the look of
a packaging error from dmo, but it's an obvious simple fix..;

mv /etc/mythtv/mythweb.conf.dpkg-dist /etc/mythtv/mythweb.conf ;
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

HTH others who may encounter same

Cheers!
