#10505 closed Bug Report - General (fixed)
MythArchive 0.25-beta 'Create Archive/Import Archive' does not write progress.log
| Reported by: | Owned by: | paulh | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Priority: | minor | Milestone: | 0.26.1 |
| Component: | Plugin - MythArchive | Version: | Unspecified |
| Severity: | medium | Keywords: | archive |
| Cc: | Ticket locked: | no |
Description
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/509728#509728
In later tests both creation and import worked, although the conditions for setting up a successful import seemed more critical; but there is no on-screen indication that anything is happening or that the process has completed. progress.log is set to 0 bytes and stays there.

Bug has been introduced to my setting with 0.25. Now, my setting is 0.26. Mytharchive log screen stays empty. Size of the progress.log is 0 bytes. This is annoying, because I frequently use a NAS to keep my local storage free for new recordings. I miss the "success" message telling me the status of the backup, which sometimes fails due to bad filenames originated by the TV-stations. I am watching the bug tracker, but I do not see any progress on this issue.

This appears to be another side affect of beirdos new logging stuff. I don't think there is an easy way to direct the logging to where we want it to go ie MythArchive?'s progress.log.
Probably the best we can do is add another command line parameter to tell mytharchivehelper where to send the progress log and have mytharchivehelper echo any progress messages to it?

If that looks to be the best way to do it, then please do. It would be useful to have it back.
In 0.26-fixes the real-time DVD-creation progress log sometimes isn't found initially either, although it can be brought up through the menus.
Thanks for reviewing these tickets.

Thanks for your responses. My distribution is debian wheezy. Today I updated to 0.26-fixes, using debs from the multimedia repository. But the changes are not yet implemented. Mytharchive presents an empty log screen. Well, I have to wait for the next round of fixes. I do not want to break anything in my setup compiling and installing mytharchive from source.

The fixes are only in my fork (https://github.com/paul-h/mythtv) at the moment. Neither 0.27-pre or 0.26-fixes have been updated. I don't have commit access to the mythtv repo so you will just have to be patient and hope a current dev cherry picks the required commits.

I thought this might be related to #11059 but the change that seems to have fixed that (adding <LocalHostName?>profile_identifier</LocalHostName?> to config.xml) has not fixed this. The archived recording and mydata.xml (which includes savedirectory="") appear in the expected folders but the progress.log, which should be shown live on-screen, is empty and mythburn.log is a relic from an earlier 'Create DVD' job.
