Hi;

I don't get the error you mentioned, but I have noticed
it failing.

The backend runs it (by the housekeeper,) In my logs,
3 seconds after the BE starts.

Does it work if you do this (after the BE is up and running:)

     sudo su mythtv
     /usr/share/mythtv/hardwareprofile/sendProfile.py --submitOnly -a

(your path to the share directory may be different)

Mine works if I do the above. but in the backend log,
I always see:

     ...housekeeper.cpp:571 (RegisterTask) - Registering HouseKeeperTask 'HardwareProfiler'.
     ...housekeeper.cpp:637 (Start) - Queueing HouseKeeperTask 'HardwareProfiler'.
     ...housekeeper.cpp:132 (Run) - Running HouseKeeperTask 'HardwareProfiler'.
     ...housekeeper.cpp:136 (Run) - HouseKeeperTask 'HardwareProfiler' Failed.
