Has this been fixed or is there any activity on this problem? I just upgraded to 16.10 today and after running into the usual mysql password problem, I gave up and purged mysql and mythtv, deleted all mythtv files and directories, rebooted, and reinstalled mythtv from scratch.
I have the same continuously restarting frontend with exit code 139. As an aside, I have been running mythtv on ubuntu for over 5 years and an ubuntu upgrade rarely manages to complete without killing mythtv. It doesn't break every time but most times it does which usually burns a whole day since I can't remember if this fix will be the same as last version fix or the same as last year's fix. I'm not a linux pro so I have to relearn all those terminal commands I haven't touched in 6 months. Plus little things like mysql commands on the mythtv troubleshooting page that no longer work unless you add the -p parameter which current versions of mysql now require and mysql does not say -p is missing, it just fails leaving you wondering why. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1633871 Title: Mythtv frontend stuck in restart loop (code 139) after update to Ubuntu 16.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythtv/+bug/1633871/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
