MythVideo cannot find coverart after scan for changes

Description

I have a nfs mount on my frontend/backend setup (to a media server) that hosts my videos for MythVideo?, and when i get the metadata for the video, it works fine. After a "scan for changes", where the coverart normally is, it is now a grey box. Mythfrontend show an error:

2010-06-24 11:48:39.975 Unable to find image file: 3021_coverart.jpg

2010-06-24 11:48:39.976 Unable to find image file: 7840_coverart.jpg

a quick "ls -latr" in /var/lib/mythtv/coverart shows:

-rw-r--r-- 1 theskaz mythtv 628917 2010-06-23 19:14 3021_coverart.jpg

-rw-r--r-- 1 theskaz mythtv 321663 2010-06-23 20:34 7840_coverart.jpg

(This is just a snippet, the error is for every single coverart/fanart/screenshot on my system. If i reset the metadata, then redownload it, it will find it again until the next time.

You have conflicting local and storage group entries. You can use one or the other, not both.

I have the same problem. Not sure what you meant about storage groups, robertm. I've looked in the storagegroup table, and there's no duplication across servers. I've 'edited' all directories in all storage groups on both backends, to trigger the test creation of the .test file, and it all works fine. Any other ideas?

comment:3 Changed 14 years ago by harvest316@…

To clarify: what works fine is the backend setup verifying all storage group directories.

I confirm /var/lib/mythtv/coverart is drwsrwsr-x

JAMU also has trouble finding the coverart, because the --mythtvjanitor will just delete the images.

The only workaround is to put the full path in the coverfile column of the videometadata table. But I'd like a less hacky solution if we can manage it.

The only pertinent entries from mythfrontend -v all:

As mentioned, the issue is because you have both storage groups and local folder paths defined to the same directory. This is causing problems with MythVideo?'s use of hashing, and the scanner moving the entry between local and remote paths. That is a misconfiguration. Please remove the path you have set in the frontend configuration for MythVideo?.
