OR if you actually want the mythtv log files create /var/log/mythtv
with the permissions appropriate to the user who's running the daemon
(root). The issue is that you cannot create
/var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log since /var/log/mythtv doesn't exist :)<br>

<pre wrap="">just comment out the line that reads:
HOME="/var/log/mythtv"
and it should start up via the rc script.

<pre wrap="">Hi !
I've also had similar problem with my gentoo - mythtv construction
try the following :
Has the user in /etc/conf.d/mythbackend permissions on the logfile, is this
user a member of the groups video and audio ?
Reset the service with /etc/init.d/mythbackend zap before trying to restart
it !
Any left over pid files like /var/run/mythbackend.pid ?
Does the mysql.txt file have the right settings for the database server ?
Is there a nfslockfile.lock in the /mnt/store, delete it.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Fritz

Betreff: [mythtv-users] mythbackend on Gentoo
Hello,
I just finished installing Myth on Gentoo and everything is working fine
with one exception:
The rc script that is supposed to start mythbackend in the default
runlevel does not seem to function properly.
If I start mythbackend manually form the command line everything works
wonderfully.
I can't seem to find any reason for this. Especially since the script in
/etc/init.d says the backend is running fine but ps and mythfrontend
tell a different story.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
--
