Hi;<br>
<br>
The five directories you listed are created at startup if they don't<br>
exist, using the contents of 'confdir' plus '/themes' for exammple.<br>
<br>
How about adding the following just before your init script starts<br>
mythbackend, and checking the result:<br>
<br>
echo "HOME='$HOME', MYTHCONFDIR='$MYTHCONFDIR'" >> /tmp/confdir.out<br>
<br>
Do you have a wrapper script that needs to be checked too (e.g.<br>
mythbackend calls mythbackend.real?)<br>
<br>
You didn't include the entire init script. If you're using the<br>
--user <username> argument, what is the reault of grep <username><br>
/etc/passwd? Does it have its home directory set to /dev/null?<br>
<br>
I'd suggest putting the entire log output from a single run in<br>
<a href="http://filebin.ca/" target="_blank">http://filebin.ca/</a> in case there's something happening earlier<br>
(and to eliminate those pesky split lines in email.)<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
