Thread: New modem no access to tivoweb!

    New modem no access to tivoweb!

    Hi,
    I have fitted a new modem/router for my home network and now I can't raise the tivoweb.
    I have rebooted the tivo, still not luck
    I can ping and telnet the tivo. I have run the CrashCount hack but to no avail.
    Any ideas?

    have you checked via Telnet that TivoWeb is still running?

    Try the command:
    ps ax|grep "TivoWeb"

    also check /var/log/tivoweb.log for any issues.

    Thanks Peter - here's the response

    Peter,

    The response to the first command was:
    470 p0 SW 0:00 grep TivoWeb

    I'm afraid that means nothing to me.

    To the second:
    bash: /var/log/tivoweb.log: Permission denied

    Any ideas or clues for further study?

    Cheers,
    Brendon

    Ok, I didn't realise that you had no linux experience.

    The first response tells me that TivoWeb (or TWP) is not currently running.

    TWP is the default, so to start it manually try:

    /var/hack/TivoWebPlus/tivoweb

    If it's still not running, we need to look in the log file. To see the contents you need to use the 'cat' command.

    cat /var/log/tivoweb.log

    Then copy and post your results here.

    Peter.

    Is there a reference for these linux commands or do you need to be an experience technician?
    By the way, if Tivo come to Australia will they close down our little network?

    Thanks for your help so far.

    It looks like you have the crash count issue.

    Try the command:
    cat /hack/TivoWebPlus/.dist/CrashCount

    And see what the result is. Anything other than zero then run the following commands:
    echo 0 > /hack/TivoWebPlus/.dist/CrashCount
    cat /hack/TivoWebPlus/.dist/CrashCount

    The result should now be zero.

    Try restarting it now:
    /var/hack/TivoWebPlus/tivoweb

    If that works for you, download the newest version of TWP from here and use the update feature to stop this happening again.

    As for linux commands, these are not TiVo specific so any linux website or book will give you the basics.

    Peter.

    Smile Thanks that's fixed it.

    Peter,

    Thanks. It works fine now and I have upgraded to the latest v1.3.1. Wasn't sure about the compatability issues of v2.

    Thanks,
    Brendon

    Glad to here it works.

    We will be probably swaping over to V2 soon, once we are sure it is stable on S1's.
