Beta [Real-time scheduling] schedule without rebooting

Status
Not open for further replies.
I am not sure I feel confident changing lines of code, especially as the before and after look the same to me.
It's changing a lower case 'i' to an upper case 'I' in three places. How hard can it be (JC)?
If it doesn't work, you are no worse off - and you can always change it back or reinstall the package.
 
Aah, I can see that now you point it out. I am having to use iPad this morning as wife off furlough and using PC for work. Sorry.

I assume I would need something beyond the capabilities of the file editor in diagnostics.

It seemed to get beyond where it was previously stuck, only to stick somewhere else.

Checked file editor (still on iPad unfortunately) and I do appear to be able to edit more than just databases. Do I need to to toggle on the line numbers?

Meanwhile, I have RS scheduled the programmes on another box to monitor what happens.

Same programmes whizzed from RS at next sync and straight into the webif schedule on the second box. I didn’t manage to catch it pending, so working as expected.

So, issue seems to be confined to HDR4 which, according to RS is communicating every 10 minutes and rs.log is looping the same error.

Both boxes are up to date. Should I start reinstalling packages. If so, which ones?

You cannot edit sqlite databases with the file editor
Just click on Open and navigate the file tree down to the /mod/sbin directory

there is no Toggle line numbers option so I am not sure what you are looking at

Use the browser search for usS to find the lines that need changing

Thank you for the guidance. I shan't attempt it on the ipad, but will give it a go later.

Try editing /mod/sbin/rs_process at lines 180, 191 and 202 to change this:
set newservice [get_channel_attr_byorglcn $lcn usSvcid]​
to this:
set newservice [get_channel_attr_byorglcn $lcn usSvcId]​

It might be case-sensitive - usSvcid vs usSvcId

Managed to get on PC and edit the rs_process in three places and saved. Much easier than I expected. It has now run two RS cycles, but the items are still queued. I have not done a restart as that will push them through outside of RTS.

rs.log looks very similar, apart from the top line:

The errors have stopped, so that has to be a good thing.
Much easier than I expected.
There you are you see!
It has now run two RS cycles, but the items are still queued.
Looking at those latest log entries, it seems like it's complaining about old EPG data. The timestamp relates to 29/30 June. Is your EPG service still running? Check on the WebIf Service Management page. If not, then restart it. If it is, then it might be interesting to see the output of this at a command prompt:
humax# ls -lR /mnt/hd1
and then you'll probably have to reboot to get it working again.
 
The EPG service did show as running, but I toggled it anyway.

Not sure if it is relevant, but I do have schedchk installed on all the boxes in question.

I am unclear why the same case sensitivity would not similarly affect the other boxes.

Code:
HDR4# ls -lR /mnt/hd1

I have waited while it completed an RS cycle. Will reboot later as nothing urgent is pending.

Can you run:
Code:
humax# epg last
humax# epg -S 28224 last
humax# epg -E 49700 dump
from the command prompt and report the results?
I presume you can actually receive LCN 81 Talking Pictures and 25 Yesterday OK?

If you view the webif EPG on the box in question does it have up to date EPG data for the Talking pictures channel for the time of the recording?

The Stale EPG data is saying the data it has is for

One of the queued ms in RS has "fallen off". It has not been scheduled. does it give up after so many failed attempts?
 
UPDATE: the second one has fallen off and the EPG is now complete, with the programmes in question visible but not scheduled.

The scheduled reboot stuck behind the two programmes has just rebooted the box, so some of the evidence is gone, but I can retry later and see what happens The reboot was definitely after the above. I saw it happen as I was typing.

rs.log has not updated since 18:00, thought "last seen" on RS shows 6:32pm
