[Bug 594956] Re: /usr/bin/mythshutdown --shutdown not working

 

We really do appreciate you opening this ticket to help improve
Mythbuntu, but it needs to be closed for a number of reasons. The
biggest one is that upstream has moved on to a new version and believes
this to be fixed. Could you please verify if this issue still exists in
the latest version?

Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a
new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer
versions.

Title:
  /usr/bin/mythshutdown --shutdown not working

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Dear Team,

  
  yet another bug on my system - fresh install of 10.04, using mythwelcome on a combined Backend/Frontend.

  Once or twice a day mythshutdown is not able to shutdown the system after a recording. mythwelcome, 
  shutdown command is set to "sudo /usr/bin/mythshutdown --shutdown".

  Manually calling this command on a console results sometimes in the
  following output:

  --- snip ---
  os@mythtv-livingroom:~$ sudo /usr/bin/mythshutdown --shutdown
  Cannot login to database?

  Would you like to configure the database connection now? [no]
  [console is not interactive, using default ´no´]
  mythshutdown: Could not initialize myth context, Exiting.
  --- snip ---

  Database and backend use a private IP address (192.168.), not loopback device as the backend serves
  other frontends as well. The network cable runs to a switch. Network chipset is a r8149.

  I have no idea/clue what this error is about, but it prevents mythwelcome/mythshutdown to shutdown the
  system back thus eating power forever.

  This error happens only ever 5-8 time - in all other cases mythwelcome
  shuts down the system as requested.

  Any tips?
