    Daily call not working

    Hi there,
    My tivo has stopped making daily calls. I've run through the networking diagnostics and all is fine, until i try wget to minnie when it times out. I've previously had proxy issues that were resolved with much appreciated help and it is possibly related.. http://forums.oztivo.net/showthread.php?t=1427

    Nothing else has changed, same ISP, network set-up, etc..

    The latest tclient log is attached...

    Any advice would be welcome!

    Thanks,
    Melissa.

    I forced a daily call and it seems to have worked, but the date/time is incorrect, so it won't record. Any suggestions on how to fix the date/time?

    Thank you!

    I just tried this to fix the time, but it didn't work..:

    [TiVo [p0] ~]# ntpdate -v -b 127.0.0.1
    oztivo ntpdate $Revision: 1.21 $
    Locally configured IP address: 132.163.4.103
    Failed 4 times to get_postalcode
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# date

    You don't have your location field filled in on the fourm, so I don't know where you are. But Assuming your in NSW, Try the following (if not substitute your capital city code):

    [TiVo [p0] ~]# get_postalcode

    You should get the response 02000 (for NSW)

    If you don't, please do the following

    [TiVo [p0] ~]# cat /etc/postcodezones

    And show what results you get.

    If you did get 02000 then it's your ISP's proxy still causing issues.
    Please search this forum and our Website for your TiVo questions before starting a new thread. Thanks!

    Thanks, I am in Melbourne and this was the result i got. All the proxy issues were fixed early in 2007, and in the end it was the date/time that was causing the issues as it could make a daily call (as it can now), but the date/time is out.

    Cheers,
    Melissa.

    In case there is something weird with the tabs in your postcodes file, download This version and replace it. Do not open the file on a PC as it may change the formating.

    Thanks Peter, i updated the file and it now has the correct date, but the time is out by 11 hours (Tivo is behind). It was 19:01 when i ran the below.

    [TiVo [p0] ~]# ntpdate -v -b 127.0.0.1
    oztivo ntpdate $Revision: 1.21 $
    Locally configured IP address: 132.163.4.103
    Our postcode is 03000. Found matching timezone Australia/Melbourne
    Offset 0 for timezone GMT, daylight saving is 0
    Connecting to time server 132.163.4.103
    Setting the local time to Wed Jan 2 08:01:20 2008
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# date
    Wed Jan 2 08:01:37 localtime 2008
    [TiVo [p0] ~]#

    Also, just in case it helps - this is what i did early last year to fix some daily call/proxy/date & time issues (http://forums.oztivo.net/showthread.php?t=1427)

    [TiVo [p0] ~]# cat /etc/ntpdate_local_ip
    cat: /etc/ntpdate_local_ip: No such file or directory
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# rw
    File system is now READ/WRITE.
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# echo "132.163.4.103" > /etc/ntpdate_local_ip
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# ro
    File system is now READ ONLY.
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# ntpdate -v -b 127.0.0.1

    Hmm, I wonder if the zoneinfo database is corrupted? You could try:

    Code:
    cd /
    rsync -rv 131.244.9.101::oztivo_timezones  .
    ntpdate -v -b 127.0.0.1
    date

    Thanks Matt,
    Unfortunately it didn't work, it is still 11hrs behind (18:04 when i ran it). Could there be anything wrong with the time server?

    Melissa

    [TiVo [p0] /]# rsync -rv 131.244.9.101:ztivo_timezones
