<p>I decided to do the 16.04 upgrade today. The winning streak was
destroyed. Apparently, mysql doesn't like being upgraded from
5.5 to 5.7, and nothing would run. I reverted back to my 14.04
(thanks clonezilla) and all is well. I'll have to upgrade mysql
to 5.6 first.</p>

MythBunbtu 12.04 backend to 14.04. The upgrade went
incredibly smooth, no issues and no errors. I'll leave
it here for the day and try a 16.04 upgrade tomorrow.
If that works, I'll move from 0.27 to 0.28.<br>

ps: I had to tell someone about the clean upgrade...
it's the first clean one on this server (started at
8.04, I think), and the wife wouldn't understand.<br>

I just went from .27 to 29 on 14.04. Again, flawless.
Wow!<br>
<br>
Tomorrow, I try to get up to 16.04, then I don't have to
worry about it again for a few more years.<br>

<div>I use Kubuntu, and am currently on 14.04. I upgraded
to .29 a couple of months ago and only had a few small
issues with metadata lookups that were fairly easily
solved. I would have upgraded to 16.04 but I saw this:</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>I don't know if I'm the average user, but I didn't
feel like dealing with it at the time and 14.04 is
working fine for me. I have about 7 systems that would
need upgrading, 2 with tons of customizations way beyond
myth that I have running. I'll pass for now. Might try
upgrading one of my low priority frontend only systems
over the holidays just to see how it goes.</div>

When upgrading to mysql 5.7 it will not run, if you have a file
named mythtv-tweaks.cnf in /etc/mysql/conf.d/ with an entry
'table_cache = 128', it can be replaced with 'table_open_cache=128'
or commented out.<br>
