<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">HI,<br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I've been having problems with MythPodcaster since upgrading to ubuntu 18.04, I'm hoping that someone here can help me.<br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I've had to downgrade tomcat to tomcat 8.0.52 and I'm using oracle-java7.<br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The web interface loads ok, but whenever MythPodcaster attempts to transcode a recording, I get this error <a href="message:2018-05-28" target="_blank" title="message:2018-05-28

<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">My first thought was that it is a file access error, but the .rss .html &.png files are all created ok, so MythPodcaster can definitely write to the output directory.<br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I've also tried setting up mythpodcaster in docker, but I cannot get the web interface to work in docker. In many ways this would be my preferred option, since it would be unaffected by any OS upgrades.<br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Any help, gratefully received.<br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Regards,<br /></span></p>
