mythweb status issue 404 error [Solved]

Post by glenb »

have had mythweb working fine for a long time on arch linux using arch aur for mythtv-git (fixes 31). today suddenly only on status under mythweb i get 404 not found error. everything else works. only update i did was build new version today from aur. my php and apache have not been upgraded or when they were upgraded the mythweb status page worked. i also built and installed 3 mythplugins from the same mythtv-git. those were the only changes since yesterday when it worked fine. nothing changed in php.ini or conf files in /etc/httpd/conf.

when i go to http://(server ip:6544 i get get the info page and using menu on left, if i selection information / backend status i also get page not found 404 error. so i assume mythweb is seeking same page and that is where i am getting the problem

anyone have any ideas of what to look at to fix this ?

The status page uses the Services API. From a browser, what does this return:

Code: Select all

http://yourBackendHostNameOrIP:6544/Status/GetStatusHTML
If that gets the 404, you need to solve that 1st. The host and port are developed from settings
MasterServerIP and BackendStatusPort. mythtv-setup is where these are set.

Note that mythweb has its own repository, not part of the mythtv one.

i see the mythweb just gives that page from api. i get 404 error from getstatushtml. i did see that in the arch aur package he changed the service file and has backend starting with option --noupnp. i have a feeling it may be that. i am recording for couple more hours and i'll edit the service to what it was previously and restart to see if that corrects that issue.

thanks much for the help

marking it solved as when i changed the service file and removed the --noupnp it worked again. for anyone using aur mythtv-git fixes 31 package they should be aware if they also use mythweb
