| Post subject: | Can't download themes to frontend |
I just setup a new frontend-only box and I'd like to use the mythbuntu theme. On my other frontend-only box I can just go to the theme chooser, press menu to show downloadable themes, select the theme, and it will download and install. I think it gives me some error the first time but if I select it again, it works. On this new frontend, if I choose a downloadable theme it just spins. The menu saying it's downloading it just stays up and never goes away... |

Can I still manually install themes? This is kind of annoying that this isn't working... |

Could I ask kmkittre, have you checked that the new frontend has internet access? |

I don't see why it wouldn't. It's on my network so it can see the backend, and I can get the list of downloadable themes I just can't download them. I'll try to ping google next time I have it on. |

Can you download and install updates? This should tell you if your FE has access beyond your local network and out to the cloud. Then it is a matter of seeing if the logs in the FE say anything about trying and failing to DL the new themes. I will try this on my stand alone FE and post back here my results. |

Well, I tried it and the process failed just after the download completes. I am fairly certain it has something to do with folder and/or user permissions. I will check the logs, if I can find them and see what they say. Post back later. |
