Don't get me wrong, mythfilldatabase is still working, It just
doesn't seem to be logging. I wanted to verify that the command
line options
<br>
(--dd-grab-all) that I added via the backend setup screens were
indeed taking effect.

<br>
Was logging disabled in the new version? Is there a way to
enable it?

Thanks.

This was brought up back on 9/24. You're right, every thing's
<br>
fine, just no logs. If you start your backend with the -v system
<br>
flag, I *think* you'll see a line like this in your BE log when
<br>
MFDB runs:
<br>
<br>
... command=/usr/local/bin/mythfilldatabase --dd-grab-all
--verbose general,system --logpath /var/log/mythtv --loglevel
debug --quiet --quiet
<br>
<br>
where, in my case all the logging options are correct, except
<br>
the additional --quiet one.
<br>
<br>
I think mythsystemlegacy() is checking if you (or I) have the
<br>
--quiet flag set. And, if so, it appends the 2nd quiet and
<br>
that prevents the log.
<br>
<br>
Are you starting your backend with --quiet?
<br>
<br>
ps ax|grep mythbackend|grep -v grep
<br>
<br>
would tell you.

Sorry to bring up the topic again. I saw the other thread title and
thought it was about mythfilldatabase not running at all.<br>
<br>
ps ax|grep mythbackend|grep -v grep returns:<br>
18308 ? Ssl 0:01 /usr/bin/mythbackend --syslog local7
--user mythtv --daemon<br>
so it is not being started with --quiet.<br>
<br>
I'll try adding --logpath to the command line.<br>
Thanks Bill.<br>
