TIVOWebPlus not starting

[thomson]

Might be a good idea to place the last release of the TivoWebPlus v1.3.1 software on the OzTivo image so that systems will be updated with all the latest bug fixes.

The v1.3.1 bundle is very stable now and is unlikely to be updated much more (other than major bug fixes) as we are getting very near to releasing v2.2.

TivoWebPlus bundles can be found here.

TWP 1.3.1 from about January last year is currently in our rsync respository.

We are overdue a new ISO, but travel has kept me from putting time into it.

I was hoping though to add V2.x to the next release.

But it's still not good enough.

I have issues with uptime and some of the modules not working.

Eg. clicking on a series [Version 2.1.b3 (oztivo-080119)] brings up:

-------INTERNAL SERVER ERROR------ --cut here--action:series, path:/360733, env:, code:'NONE'

TWP 1.3.1 from about January last year is currently in our rsync respository.

I was just thinking that the rsync repository could be updated so that people could use the update facility to get the latest release. Seems that a few people have been running into issues that were resolved a while back.

I was hoping though to add V2.x to the next release. But it's still not good enough. I have issues with uptime and some of the modules not working. Eg. clicking on a series [Version 2.1.b3 (oztivo-080119)] brings up: <snip>

Hehe... that release is more than a month old now The series should be fixed in the later distributions. The v2.1 stream is definitely development at the moment, but BTUx9 is currently looking at tidying up the release so that we can push out a v2.2-stable release.

If possible we may wish to install both (I use /var/hack/TivoWebPlus/v1.3 and /var/hack/TivoWebPlus/v2.1) and give the users the option of which one to run.

I'll look into updating.

The version in rsync does have the update feature. The main issue is the old version still on the install CD and not enough people run the update_oztivo routine once installed, despite it being in the instructions.

I hope to have time to make a new ISO in the coming months. I will probably replace the current tivoweb/tivowebplus options with v1.3/v2.2 option.

P.s v2.1r080211 still had the series bug, but just downloaded 080223 and it's fine.
