Hello All,

I have installed MythStreamTV using the instructions here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php? ... thstreamtv) and using the attached file. When I try to start the stream from Mythweb I receive the following error : An unknown module was specified.

I see some errors from the install script. I have include the text from the terminal.

Clearly you are missing files in
/usr/share/mythtv/mythstreamtv/

run:

Code: Select all

ls -l /usr/share/mythtv/mythstreamtv

And show us the output.

That's bizzare!

The files are there. Have you run it again ? Maybe they have since been installed ..

Code: Select all

ls -l /usr/share/mythstreamtv/mythstreamtvactive.sh

Is it really there ? I have copied and paste to make sure there is not typo.

Investigate those files and that installer you are running..

Never used mythstreamtv but from the looks of your errors it seems that it is trying to copy the files into various directories in /usr/share/mythtv

The ls listing you produced shows the files in the target directory, but they are all zero bytes in size.

Are you running the install script as root?

I installed using sudo as the how-to instructed. After I read your post I installed again as root. Same results. Any other suggestions?

So did you do this from the terminal after downloading the file. (I apologize if this is exactly how you did it, but I want to make sure).

Code: Select all

cd /
sudo tar -xzvf <path_to_package>/mythstreamtv_1.30-11-amk.tar.gz
cd /usr/share/mythstreamtv
sudo nano ./install.sh  (make your edits and save)
sudo ./install.sh

I am wondering if you did the tar from the root of your file system. Just by untaring the gz file from root you should have the /usr/share/mythstreamtv directory populated with the files you listed in a previous post, but they shouldn't be zero byte.

No I did not. I downloaded and uncompressed to my desktop and installed from there via the terminal. I wasn't sure it was safe to do anything in the /root folder.

Shouldn't be a problem. Doing the untar from / will put all the files in the proper location. It won't kill anything. The only thing it will do is overwrite those zero byte files which you want anyways.

I would do the install as they list and see if that solves your problem. Hopefully that will do it!

That was the solution. Thanks so much for your help. I guess next time I will follow the instructions exactly as they are written.

Glad that was it!
