Post subject:  Uh oh... Schedule problems after DST fix

I fixed the DST issue with the excellent how-to on the subject, and all went very well. For the last week I've had perfect recordings. Until today.

When I look at my schedule, every show has been shifted later by one hour. Every day I have checked so far is shifted. This is a new problem that occurred today after my shows were recorded.

I have run the "mythfilldatabase --update-all" again without fixing anything. I checked my timezone and it is set properly to PDT and the clock is correct. What the h*ll is going on, and is it just me??

I had a similar problem, but it wasn't as global as yours sounds. I had several channels that would have programs listed in the correct time slot, but would also have the same program listed again right after it (example: 10:00 News on channel 2 at 10:00, then again at 11:00). Scheduled recordings ran fine - even with the discrepancy in the program guide, strangely enough. I ran 'mythfilldatabase --refresh-all' and restarted the backend - neither fixed the issue. I finally rebooted the system last night, and everything seems to be back to normal now. I'm not sure, but I suspect Mysql may have been part of the problem - in hindsight, I wish I would have thought of restarting Mysql prior to rebooting.

Anyway, in my case, a reboot fixed the issue - but you might want to try restarting the backend & Mysql before bothering with a full reboot.

Hope this helps -

Allan

Wow, that's what I love about this place!

You nailed it, Allan. I stopped mythbackend, did a restart on mysql, and restarted mythbackend. Now the schedule looks perfect.

My KM box is so reliable I almost never restart it. It didn't occur to me to try this obvious fix. (Rebooting is always the first thing we do on Windoze computers, isn't it?)

I know what you mean about KM reliability vs Windows reliability. I am the admin on several Windows servers at work, all of which require periodic rebooting just keep things running 'normally'.

My KM systems, on the other hand, get rebooted VERY rarely. I really wish I would have thought about restarting Mysql BEFORE I typed 'reboot' instead of immediately after. There goes my 'uptime' numbers. Oh well.

Glad I could be of some help.
