[mythtv-users] Mythfrontend won't start any more

[Phill Edwards]

My MythBuntu mythfrontend-only box has been working fine. Then all of a
sudden mythfrontend won't start any more. If I run it from a command line I
see the output below and then it just hangs there never starting
mythfrontend.

Found it! I'm also running a Plex Media Server on here and in
/var/lib/plexmediaserver/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Logs
I had an old log file of 2.6GB.
