A few days ago i installed mythbuntu 12.04. With that i got a working<br>
syslog for mythtv that i hadn't bothered to fix in my old installation. It<br>
worked nice and the logs was filling up with information.<br>
But since i need a few patches and changes to myth i compile from source.<br>
So i compiled and installed from my old source directory, did a git pull<br>
first, and installed. But now it seems that the syslog logging has stopped.<br>
So i wonder if i should have compiled with some extra options? Or how could<br>
i try to find the problem?<br>

Hi;<br>
<br>
Some ideas, if you've not already been there:<br>
<br>
Building from source doesn't change your init file or logging<br>
configurations (at least it doesn't for me.)<br>
<br>
If you do: ps axl | grep mythbackend | grep -v grep , is your<br>
logging still --syslog local 7 (as opposed to --logpath ... ?<br>
<br>
Mythbuntu starts the backend in /etc/init/mythtv-backend.conf,<br>
which shouldn't have changed because you're building from source,<br>
but is it executing your /usr/local/bin/mythbackend, not<br>
/usr/bin/mythbackend?<br>
<br>
You can always start the backend from the command line for testing:<br>
<br>
sudo /usr/local/bin/mythbackend --logpath /tmp -v --user mythtv<br>
<br>
(or --syslog local7 in place of --logpath /tmp)<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
