My backend died and I had to reinstall; I downloaded the 16.04 ISO and went through the install process, then installed all of the updates and configured. I appear to have almost everything running - but I have no guide data, and running MythFillDatabase generates errors. Here is my MythTV version
Sep 9 16:39:40 Hollywood mythbackend: mythbackend[1085]: C thread_unknown mythcommandlineparser.cpp:2599 (ConfigureLogging) mythbackend version: fixes/0.28 [v0.28.2-6-g9031599]
I can't copy/paste from the window in which the Mythfilldatabase logs appear, but here are what appear to be the most important lines:
I dbSchema 1344
I Connecting to backend server: 192.168.3.203:6543
E Failed to connect to (127.0.0.1:6543) Connection refused
I No channels are configured to use the grabber
The mythfilldatabase log file contains no errors, but neither is it current - the last entries are from yesterday, and I have run Mythfilldatabase several times today.

Sysctrl confirms that the backend is running, and the IP address that mythfilldatabase is using matches what is shown by ifconfig. What should be my next troubleshooting steps?

Re: Mythfilldatabase errors, unable to connect to backend
Hi, I'd fix this line 1st:
It means that all channels had an empty XMLTVID.
Code: Select all
