Comment (by dreamcat4 <dreamcat4@…>):

 Problem found:  mythbackend wasn't running.

 We need a basic error check for that, and to print message before
 "includes/db_update.php" is executed.

 [09:38] < stuarta> might help ;-)
 [09:39] < dreamcat4> stuarta: OK, it worked! so that tells a lot
 [09:39] < dreamcat4> if a patch to error out, it should check if
 mythbackend service is running and quit
 [09:44] < stuarta> i thought that was already in there. maybe not
 [09:44] < stuarta> with mythweb, it'll need to try to talk to the backend,
 with a quick timeout, and then present a nice error message
 [09:45] < stuarta> but i though it already did. maybe not a nice message
 bit it did present something
 [09:47] < dreamcat4> stuarta: i saw such an error message like "backend
 not running"  or something BUT
 [09:48] < dreamcat4> the message comes too late in execution. you only see
 it if have already hacked the db_ver from 3 -> 4
 [09:50] < dreamcat4> i think we need it to perform the test earlier,
 before the problem code is run, and print out a worning as a more basic
 PHP exception
 [09:50] < dreamcat4> since the skins / template haven't been loaded yet
