[mythtv] Ticket #2817: Unknown problem with socket communications causes segfault of backends

[Martin Møller]

I'm not quite sure yet, but I think many of my segfaults was a result of Storage Groups.

I had defined a 'High Quality' storage group that had these directories in it on the master:
/vol/TV3
/vol/TV

On my third backend it had this:
/vol/TV3

Nothing on the second backend.

/vol/TV3 was NFS-mapped on the Master.

I noticed by chance that when /vol/TV3 was *NOT* mounted, I didn't seem to get the crashes anymore so now the question is whether the issue is because there were two directories or because /vol/TV3 was NFS-mapped.

The directory had read/write rights and root was not squashed.

I might try to mount it via samba in the coming days and see what happens. Hope this can help in finding out what's going on.

/Martin.
