<div><br></div><div><div>Some of you heard about that Derecho storm that caused a widespread</div><div>power outages here in VA. Fortunately we didn't lose power for long,</div><div>but the cheap consumer grade APC UPS didn't protect the mythtv server</div>
<div>well enough with the power going on and off and on and off repeatably.</div><div>All the other computers running have had no issues. Stability of the</div><div>server seems fine except for mythtv, about twice a day now the frontends</div>
<div>just hang with a protocol error. Sometimes when we try to watch livetv</div><div>we get a message about no tuners available... I have tried debsums to</div><div>check the binaries, manual fsck,ext3 -f, and xfs_check as well as</div>
<div>running the backend with debugging (sort of useless thus far since it</div><div>doesn't actually crash). Logs really haven't shown anything useful.</div><div>Last night I ran the table check from mythweb and found recordmatch</div>
<div>Table is marked as crashed and last repair failed, then repaired it.</div><div>All the upcoming recordings were gone, but the mythweb/tv/schedules</div><div>were still there. However this morning the frontend crashed after</div>
<div>attempting to get a list of recordings. I just tried</div><div>running <a href="http://optimize_mythdb.pl">optimize_mythdb.pl</a> and no errors. If this doesn't stabilize</div><div>soon, I am thinking I should reinstall mythbuntu. Any suggestions what</div>
<div>else I should try?</div><div><br></div><div>The storm happened the late Friday the 29th of June, and the first db</div><div>error showed up on Jul 4 08:59:00.</div><div>Jul 4 08:59:00 io mythbackend[2329]: E Scheduler mythdbcon.cpp:825</div>
