Hi,
I just recently upgraded to version 10.13.6 on my Mac Mini and now Myth Backend won't start. It has been running flawlessly for a couple of years without any issues. I am using the previous macports installer by craig.
Is there somewhere I can go to dig up the logs?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Myth Backend Won't Start
Re: Myth Backend Won't Start
Assuming you are running version 0.28, the logs should be under:
/opt/dvr/var/log/mythtv.28
A new file is created each time mythbackend tries to run.
BTW, have you waited 10 minutes? For a lot of people, on a fresh reboot, mythbackend fails to start the first time it tries to launch as something (networking?) isn't ready. The OS will automatically try again within 10 minutes and, for most people affected, away it goes.

That seems to be a mythtv-setup log. Please post the most recent mythbackend log.

Re: Myth Backend Won't Start
ahhh yeah apologies. What is weird is that this morning I was able to start it and all seems good now 
Re: Myth Backend Won't Start
If you use Myth_Stop_Start to (well) stop and start the backend, does that work OK?

Yeah that’s all good. Not sure why it played up. All good now though. Thank you
