Tivoweb crashes

Not sure where to post this nowadays, but while my trusty Tivo is still plodding along nicely (thanks guys) I do have intermittent (like weekly) crashes of Tivoweb

A reboot of Tivo clears it up - until next time

What would anyone need to troubleshoot please? I can easily provide a screenshot of the error next time it happens

Thanks

Which version of TivoWeb / TivoWebPlus is it?
Post a screenshot / message and I'll take a look.

Aha!

Something like THIS happens periodically

Code: Select all
INTERNAL SERVER ERROR
--cut here--
action_ui '/pending' ''
no such object: {CONFLICT err=0x00030007}
    while executing
"dbobj $station fsid"
    ("uplevel" body line 31)
    invoked from within
"uplevel $body"
    invoked from within
"ForeachMfsFileTrans fsid name type $path $prefix 15 {
      set rec [db $db openid $fsid]
      set manual 0
      set suggestion 0
      if {$::version3} {
         set ..."
    (procedure "action_todo" line 118)
    invoked from within
"action_todo $chan 2 $env"
    (procedure "::action_ui" line 50)
    invoked from within
"::action_$action $chan $part $env"
    ("eval" body line 1)
    invoked from within
"eval {::action_$action $chan $part $env}"
--cut here--


Does this mean anything to anyone?

Since 2006? :shock:

:D

Error 0x00030007 means a resource conflict - two processes trying to access a database object at the same time.

Seems this is a known issue with TivoWeb

TivoWebPlus has more error checking so doesn't suffer from this.

Something I've done in the past is to schedule a cron job (or do it manually!) once a week to stop TivoWeb and then restart it. It might not need a full reboot, if you're lucky.

TWP is a little slower than TW, but has a lot more functionality and you can customise how it looks which I find handy.

My TivoWeb V1.9.4 has crashed for the first time in a long while.

I don't want to reboot as my Tivo often gets into a reboot loop on the rare occasions that is has rebooted.

I can telnet in but my linux knowledge is limited to cd, ls and not much else.

Could someone give me some commands to, I assume, either run tivoweb, or kill then run tivoweb?

I've tried searching for ways to list PIDs, running programs etc. but Tivo doesn't seem to have the necessary commands installed.

Any help gratefully received.

Something like:

Code: Select all
/var/hack/tivoweb-tcl-1.9.4/tivoweb  &

Thanks very much for that.

I didn't get the chance to try it as, having spent 2 hours not loading webpages, it has now decided to behave.

Will save the command for the future.

Cheers.
