Force a daily call, and if successful post the otclient.log here. If unsuccesful post the tcleint.log instead.
Peter
Hi
I am still getting daily calls and data.. and I can schedule a program manually to record ok but there is something not right. I cannot search for programs by name, tivo is not suggesting anything under its 'suggestions' area and I cant seem to find anything by genre etc using wishlists.
Is the guide data missing something or have I perhaps got some weird guide database corruption?
Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks
Ash
Have emailed it to you using forum email feature.. otclient.log was too many characters for a post.. thanks so much
Sorry, I've been away. But for the future, you can post a zip file to this board and someone else may have been able to help you in my absense.
The log you sent me shows a successful connection, so no problems there.
Next thing to check for is a warped clock.
telnet to tivo and run "grep warp /var/log/tvlog", you will see lines like:
Dec 16 10:15:22 (none) DbGc[107]: DbGc::HandleTriggerWhileIdle -- clock is warped -- re-marking in 300 seconds
To fix this, telnet to the Tivo, and either run "touch /var/timestamp", or "/hack/bin/fixtivotime" (the latter is useful if you have configured an ntp server).
Then force a daily call wait 24 hours.
If you are still unable to search after this, telnet in and run "tivosh force_index.tcl"
Peter.
Pete - whats the permanent solution to the clock warp? - a cron job?
I need to do the touch /timestamp routine every few weeks on one of my tivos and its right pain.. but haven't seen any confirmed long term fix suggestions.
thanks
hi - i think that seems to have fixed it. thank you very much!
i am away now for a few days but before i left i was able to search things by name again and display upcoming wishlist programs which i couldnt before.
