Hi

Am trying to upgrade using the instructions on minnie - so far I have:

1/ Dowloaded the zip file
2/FTP'd extracted zip file to var/hack

Then when I Telnet.....

[TiVo [p0] ~]# cd /var/hack
[TiVo [p0] /var/hack]# tar -zxvftivowebplus-v1.3.1-060913.tgz

The response I get is....

tar (child): Cannot open archive tivowebplus-v1.3.1-060913.tgz: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[TiVo [p0] /var/hack]#


I am sure I must be missing something REALLY simple, any suggestions would be welcomed.

What do you get if you try:

[TiVo [p0] /var/hack]# ls -l tivo*

Hi Peter

I get

-rwxr-xr-x 1 0 0 1495040 Oct 21 13:03 tivowebplus-v1.3.1-060913

It looks like the '.tgz' is missing from the end of the file when you copied it across.

[TiVo [p0] /var/hack]# ls -l tivo*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 0 0 1495040 Oct 21 13:03 tivowebplus-v1.3.1-060913.tgz


Also you don't have the most recent release. I have updated the wiki with the newest stable release. I suggest you download that version and copy it across and try again.

Peter.

Ps tivoweb-tcl has nothing to do with TiVoWebPlus, it's the install directory of the TiVoWeb installation that is included with the OzTiVo image.

Thanks Peter. Have tried all you suggested - it seems when I download the .tgz zip onto my hard drive it does not unzip as a ".tgz" extention - this is puzzling as all I do is right click the link in your post on minnie.

Any ideas? - plus as I am still something of a novice, is rebooting the Tivo the only way to re-start tivoweb?

Thanks

MIchael

Don't do any unzipping on your PC that will also cause problems.

Just copy the file you download from Minnie to your TiVo as it is.
