Can't change channel data with mythweb

Post by Chris »

My first post in this forum.

I just set up my second Mythbuntu backend after the first crashed,the release is 14.04.1
I cannot change channel data with mythweb
I have gone into /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and changed max_input_vars from 1000, to 10000, I then restarted apache, tried again without success. Checking the error log at /var/log/apache2/error.log shows: PHP Warning: Unknown: Input variables exceeded 1000. To increase the limit change max_input_vars in php.ini. in Unknown on line 0
So I went back to the file /etc/php5/apache2.php.ini and verified that the value has been changed to 10000, yet the error still indicates it is at the default level of 1000.

Any help is appreciated.

I've had that issue. But not those logs. The solution was to
allow cookies for the backend host.

Thank you for your response, how would I allow cookies on the backend host?

I meant allow cookies for the backend host on the client,
e.g. the web browser that you're unable to change data
with. Another idea would be to type:
dpkg -l|grep myth
and see if a line similar to this appears (indicating that the correct
version of mythweb is installed.):

ii mythweb 2:0.27.4+fixes.20141212.40506c2-0ubuntu0mythbuntu2 all

I'd expect it to match the version of the other lines that print.
