Can you post the backend log?<br>sounds like it is either hung, or not starting all the way (disk, no tuner, or cant connect to sql?).<br><br>Thus the issue with mythweb (no backend)<br>SQL = OK (if mythfrontend can save settings, then DB sounds ok).

I've been running MythDora 4.0 since last April, upgraded myth packages<br>to 0.20.2 in August to get Schedules Direct. No other changes since then.<br><br>Myth has been rock solid - until this week, while I was away on a
<br>business trip. My wife is strictly a user and generally only interacts<br>with Myth via the remote. The one keyboard trick I taught her was<br>CTRL-ALT-BKSP to kill a hung frontend session. She had occasion to do<br>
that one night this week, and Myth has been broken ever since. I got<br>home today and really expected to find something simple but after<br>several hours I am stumped.<br><br>I have a relatively simple configuration - combined frontend and
<br>backend, only display is HDTV, two DVICO tuner cards.<br><br>Symptoms are as follows:<br>1) Trying to access MythWeb from a browser on another box displays an<br>error box indicating that MythWebcan't connect to the back end and asks
<br>"Is it running?".<br>2) Backend appears to be running and shows no unusual messages even at<br>maximum verbosity.<br>3) Backend does not appear to be listening on its assigned port, or on<br>any other port. "netstat -lnp | grep mythback" and "netstat -an | grep
<br>6543" both return nothing.<br>3) Mythfrontend hangs before even displaying the first screen of my<br>theme. The last message in the log is where it echoes the message level<br>settings (" -v all, nodatabase").
<br>4) Mythsetup works fine, and all the parameters are exactly as I<br>remember them, including the IP names and ports<br>5) I can ping the IP name specified in setup, but "telnet mymachine<br>6543" gets a "connection refused".
<br>5) I can change parameters in Mythsetup and it remembers them, so it<br>doesn't seem obviously there is no difficulty communicating with MySQL.<br><br>Any ideas on what I should look at next?<br>_______________________________________________
