Re: [mythtv-users] Re: Weird error message - pls help

Hi,

Have you run "mythfilldatabase --manual"? If that fails, how did you install xmltv? using a package manager? If so, try compiling & installing from source (it isn't very hard).
curl http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/xmltv/xmltv-0.5.39.tar.bz2 | tar jx
cd xmltv-0.5.39
perl Makefile.PL
make
sudo make install

I had the same problem, which was due to an old version of xmltv being installed. After upgrading I redid a complete mythtvsetup (or, "mythtv-0.17/setup/setup"), then did "mythfilldatabase --manual" and all was OK.

Your problem is that the xml file hasn't been created, probably due to the fact that xmltv cannot for some reason get a  tv listing for your country.


Cheers,

Hi

I keep on receiving the error message below every
time I try using mythfilldatabase.

Any help to fix this would be appreciated. In
particular, what is "me" that should be run with
the --configure option - mythfilldatabase does
not have such an option.

Many thanks in advance & br,
Esa
