Cannot access backend status from embedded web server

Reported by: Stuart Auchterlonie Owned by: stuartm
Priority: minor Milestone: 29.0
Component: MythTV - Web Frontend Version: Master Head
Severity: medium Keywords:
Cc: Ticket locked: no

Description (last modified by Stuart Auchterlonie)

Attempting to follow the link from the side bar for Information > Backend Status results in no action.

Looking at the web debugger, it's throwing the error

"loadContent: URL(/Status/GetStatusHTML) JSURL(undefined)"

raised from util.qjs:112

The debugger error seems to be a red-herring. The problem is caused by the changes in [eea78ee7] in particular the 'Switch to using an iframe for content' part. Anything that uses

function loadContent(contentURL, jsURL)

to load the content is now failing.

Using

function loadFrontendContent(contentURL)

instead to load the Backend Status works but not sure if that is the correct fix.

Switching back to using a div for 'content' here https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/blob/master/mythtv/html/backend_index.qsp#L64 also works for the Backend Status page but breaks other stuff so isn't the correct fix.

Hopefully this will point someone in the right direction to fix this properly :)
