Hi guru's,
I wonder if you could help? I seem to have a quirky recording that my Hummy alerts me every day with:
Device: humax (dc:d3:21:0a:04:51)
At least one failed recording has been detected in your
media library. The following recording(s) failed:
/Coronation Street/Coronation...
You're right, it's a fairly new box and I've only installed the base firmware, webif, rs and flatten so I guess the folder must get generated by one of the other popular packages. Bundling the tmp folder check / creation if missing into the webif install sounds a good way to avoid anyone else...
OK this looks promising, the box went into standby which was perhaps why the output in #174 was taking so long?
Anyway, I've woken it up and immediately in the rs.huumypkg.org.uk page I can see the Humax had been seen straight away - and better still the recordings queued in the rs schedule...
Umm I tried my basic windows knowledge and tried dir from the Telnet command prompt but that didn't work. How should I check?
Edit - sorry I don't know how I misread your post, just following the instructions will repost in a minute or two... Edit~2 make that a few more minutes, it looks like...
Just ran the command - I'm not sure if it's finished, it's been about 30 mins since I started it?
humax# pkill crond
humax# /mod/sbin/crond -f -d8
crond: crond (busybox 1.20.2) started, log level 8
crond: USER root pid 932 cmd /mod/webif/lib/bin/auto >/dev/null 2>&1
crond: USER root pid 933 cmd...
Unfortunately I'm not able to get onto the Hummy either (unless there's a clever way to power it up remotely - I'm using LogMeIn to a PC at home, then Webif to the Hummy) but will try this tonight.
I'm starting to wonder if rs is working properly for me too - as I've not seen any recordings...
Thanks Ezra - it's not a big problem, I'm enjoying playing with and getting to learn this fab machine, so I'm more than happy to tinker / pull logs or try things as soon as you guru's have some more suggestions to try.
Thanks again, all the help is really appreciated.
Good point - I wonder if I've unwittingly installed something that conflicts with flatten. As far as I know I've only installed the latest custom firmware with webif, rs and flatten. I enabled the show development packages feature and there's now quite a few showing in the Packages menu...
Hmm i don't know anywhere near enough to understand what the different cron job numbers mean and what's good or bad.
I don't know if I've explained in this thread that is a refurb machine bought from humax Direct a few weeks ago.
I haven't noticed any sign of faults in normal operation, so...
Out of curiosity I ran the flatten diagnostic again in case I could see something different in the output - but as you would probably expect it's moved the Coronation St recording out of the folder (and deleted the empty folder) - I can't see any other clues in the text, but copied below in case...
Thanks MikeSH - I hadn't realised it swept up folders every few mins - and like you assumed, I thought it inhibited folder creation. Either way it looks to be just what we're hoping to get the Hummy to do. The Coronation St episode is still in it's folder from last nights 7.30 recording, so as...
You're right about the running once and not automatically. It's just recorded coronation street and recreated a new folder to put the series in.
me know if I can copy any more logs or try anything at this end. Thanks again.

Interesting - I can see several log files listed on the Diagnostics page, but flatten isn't one of them (I assume this is the box just to the right at the top). I can see logs for:
banner.log (13.00 bytes)
epgd.log (1.02 KiB)
modinit.log (5.51 KiB)
rag.log (2.41 KiB)
rsvsync.log (209.00 bytes)...
