I am starting a new thread on this problem
because as I learn more I realize I may have posted it under the wrong subject. In the process of installing a PVR-500, I got MythTV caught
is some sort of loop. Prior to this I had about 235 GB free on my hard
drive. When Myth stopped working I checked the mythbackend log that is
out put on the screen and a saw repeating messages saying my hard drive is full
or something to that effect. Being that machine was locked up I did a reboot of the machine.
When I did so MYSQL service did not
start. The Machine on which I run my backend is a headless pc that
sits in my equipment closet in the basement. The only access I have to
the machine is to VNC into in from my windows machine. After the reboot
I can VNC into the machine only to see a blank green screen. So I put a head on the machine and
managed to log on in fail safe mode only. Being that I can still Samba into the offending machine and see all the files.
I can even run movie files and nuv
files through the MPlayer on my front end manchine. I suspect
what has happen is that MythTV filled up my hard drive with some file and now
there is not enough hard drive space to start FC4 xWindows. Can
someone tell me which how to find the offending file and how do I get rid of
it? Will
this large file effect MySQL starting, and will eliminating it fix the MySQL
problem or will something else have to be done? I do
not have a very large Myth catalog If I just kill the mythtv database mythconverg
will that solve my problem. If so how do I go about doing so? Or if I missed the point completely and you direct me how to
fix this problem. Being that I am not a Linux guy I am sure I used some wrong
term here to describe the problem. Please ask question if you need more
detail. Thanks Chris |
