Hi,

I just installed KnoppMyth and think that I'm almost there. Where I'm stuck is when it tries to query zap2it's servers for my program guide.

When it was trying, I quickly switched over to a different virtual console and did a 'ps auxw |grep wget' and grabbed the command it was doing so I could try it by hand. It's apparently getting a 401 Unauthorized error, but I know the username and passwd are correct:

###
mythtv@mybox:~$ wget --http-user='myuid' --http-passwd='mypasswd' --post-file='/tmp/mythposttDzJiu' --header='Accept-Encoding:gzip' http://datadirect.webservices.zap2it.co ... tvdService --output-document=- | gzip -df
--20:04:36-- http://datadirect.webservices.zap2it.co ... tvdService
=> `-'

It looks like it's expecting some data in /tmp/mythposttDzJiu but it doesn't exist. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Thanks!

make sure the username and password are right including case. the username is case sensitive as well as the password.

Thanks for the reply,

That was my first thought too but they are definitely correct.

I guess my question is what is the post file that is being referred to and what are its contents? Can this file be artificially be constructed so I can try and run the wget command again?

Thanks again!
