[Bug 1235193] [NEW] cannot expire recordings after upgrade to 0.27

 

Public bug reported:

Noticed my hard drive is filling up - even after I "delete" a recording
in MythTV no new space is created.

Looked in the Information Centre and noticed NO new autoexpire jobs have
deleted any programs since the day I upgraded to 0.27

Then I saw this in the log:

$ tail /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log

I changed the hostname on this machine from "loungeroom" to "rem" maybe
a year or so ago but the hostname is NOT explicitly defined in ANY
settings (that I have been able to find anywhere?) for mythbackend nor
mythfrontend

it would seem somehow this is now having some sort of an effect on
"mythcorecontext.cpp" - since the upgrade on the 20th of last month. I
have tried adding "loungeroom" as a hostname for the machine in
/etc/hosts but that does not help...

I am fast running out of hard drive space!

(btw is there some command I need to run to manually clear the backlog
of programs which need to be deleted?)
