Here's a couple of tools to see if things are OK:

 From SQL:

     SELECT chanid,callsign,icon FROM channel ORDER BY chanid;

Expect to see the filenames of the icons, not full paths.

 From a browser:

     <yourBackend>:6544/Guide/GetChannelIcon?ChanId=1051

Expect to see an icon displayed.

The icons don't need to be copied to any frontends.
