I'm using mythbuntu 12.04.1, which has python 2.7.3. I'm no python<br>

I don't think that will help. I'm on crufty old Debian stable and it has python version 2.6.6. The MythDB() call is where the failure is rooted. Can you run mythpython and type 'db=MythDB()' into it?<br>

Hi Tim,<br>
Yeah you're right, it's quite a reproducible failure. I had to type:<br>
>>> from MythTV import MythDB<br>
before db=MythDB() would resolve but that does trigger the same failure.<br>
Looks to me like something is out of whack with my mythtv library/bindings, probably updating mythtv and ensuring all the packages are up to date would help before updating the entire system.<br>
I'm always a little reticent about doing updates to mythtv, I want to be sure I have a bit of spare time in case I have new problems to fix. I might have to wait a bit, it's far too nice a day outside today to dive into a myth update just now! I'll try that later.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Andrew<br>

Follow up, it had nothing to do with python problems, it turns out it's because I had an empty ~/.mythtv/config.xml . I did have an /etc/mythtv/config.xml but apparently that's no use.<br>
So score one for nasty cryptic error messages!<br></blockquote><div><br>I believe your personal one is best dealt with as a link to the system wide one.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

I'll follow up later with some commercial flagging results.<br>
