MythTV-Setup v0.27 fails to launch

[razz]

Hi Folks,

I'm following this guid: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythTV_on_Mac_OS_X#Backend. Everything is going well thus far until it asks to launch MythTV-Setup.app. The app tries to launch, but then it just quits, how do I know where it has failed? Is there any more troubleshooting steps I can take. I'm installing MythTV on a 2009 MAcBook, which is running OS 10.9.1 and has a DualCore Pentium chip in it.

Cheers,

You may find log messages in Console.app (Applications>Utilities) in the All Messages view, filter with 'myth'.

I'm biased, but why not use MacPorts to set up your backend?

Oh, and a minor point, a 2009 MacBook Pro has a Core2 Duo processor:

Does using MacPorts make it easier? Just seems like adding another software layer.

EDIT: Craig took you suggestion and trying it with MacPorts.

Cool. To prevent confusion, you should make sure you're only running one MySQL server on your backend--the MacPorts version. MySQL from the .dmg installer puts a control panel in System Preferences that you can use to stop that version of the database manager.

For background, the bundled applications produced with the official packaging script make it very easy to connect a Mac frontend to a Linux backend. The MacPorts distribution aims to make it simpler to install an OS X backend. I've included the Myth_Stop_Start applet that makes it trivial to run or kill the backend process. With the packaged apps, you have to make sure your launchd plist points to the right location for the mythbackend binary (deep inside a bundled app) and then get exactly the right syntax with launchctl to load/unload the mythbackend server process. The latter is certainly possible but I think the former is more 'Mac-like'. Etc.

Yeap, indeed the build seems to have failed at mysql5 build, I did stop the existing SQL server via systems pane, but perhaps I have to remove the old SQL first.

The existing copy of MySQL _shouldn't_ cause a problem but that's not a situation that the maintainer of the MySQL ports would normally test for. (I used to have both on a machine that was formerly my backend.) We need to see the log to find out what really happened:

/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_databases_mysql5/mysql5/main.log

If you're using TextWrangler and have installed their command line tools, you can use (what the wrapping, all on one line):

Code: Select all

edit /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_databases_mysql5/mysql5/main.log

to open the log file from the failed build.

Well I'll have to do some more digging: but here is what's in the error log:

EDIT: a second scan though the log, appears Xcode license requires admin privileges. Just have to figure out how to run "please re-run as root via sudo.", I assume it is referring to Xcode.

Please ensure that you've also installed* the XCode "Command Line tools". (Going from memory) start up XCode 5 and open Preferences. In the tab Downloads, click the Command Line Tools entry. It will take some time to download and install the necessary bits.

Then, in case your failed attempts are clogging up the works, try:

Code: Select all

sudo port clean mysql5

then try to proceed with installing Myth.

Craig
(The next version of MacPorts is going check that the Command Line Tools are installed and that the licence has been accepted or give the user appropriate instructions. I know that doesn't help you, now.)
