> Hi,


This problem may be related to mythweb being unable to connect.

I have a couple scripts that when they update my videos directory, call
mythutil to scan for videos and clear the cache, but that is not working...

Here is what I get at the end of mythutil output:

2016-05-04 17:39:14.517143 I  MythCoreContext::ConnectCommandSocket():
Connecting to backend server: 192.168.20.100:6543 (try 1 of 1)
2016-05-04 17:39:21.531500 E  MythSocket(9ce880:11): ReadStringList: Error,
timed out after 7000 ms.
2016-05-04 17:39:21.531690 C  Protocol version check failure.
The response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION was empty.
This happens when the backend is too busy to respond,
or has deadlocked due to bugs or hardware failure.
2016-05-04 17:39:21.531929 E  Cannot connect to master for video scan

I think this may also be why mythweb won't connect, and why I'm getting the
constant disconnections and reconnections in the mythbackend.log above.

Problem is that I don't know why these problems are happening or what else
to look at for a cause.

The frontend doesn't complain about the backend going offline, so for the
most part, the backend is functioning.

What else can I check?
