I run mythfilldatabase from a daily cron job which picks up the listings
from a xmltv file prepared earlier. When I run this as mythtv from the
command line it works fine. But when it's run from the cron job I get these
errors:
2008-04-05 14:25:32.211 Bypassing grabbers, reading directly from file
2008-04-05 14:25:32.212 Using runtime prefix = /usr, libdir = /usr/lib
2008-04-05 14:25:32.212 Cannot locate your home directory. Please set
the
+environment variable HOME or MYTHCONFDIR
2008-04-05 14:25:32.212 Failed to init MythContext, exiting.
I put this line in /etc/sysconfig/mythbackend but it's obviously not what's
needed because the problem still occurs:
MYTHCONFDIR=/home/mythtv/.mythtv
Can anyone advise what I need to do to fix this? It says to set HOME or
MYTHCONFDIR, but where do I set it and what do I set it to?
Regards,
Phill
