Mythweb database password |
|
After running my MythTV out of diskspace, my MySql database wouldn't start. I ran the MythTV setup twice, and it wiped out the MySql connection info. I didn't remember what I had previously set the password to so I logged into phpmyadmin and changed it. After making some free disk space, the database fired right up and I was back to watching MthTV. What I didn't realize was that the password lives in a few places, not just the front-end config. A day or two later I tried to hit Mythweb and found it was unable to connect to the database. It was showing the followig message:
Database Access Denied You are most likely receiving this message because you
have failed to configure mythweb's database login info. Please see INSTALL for instructions.
It took some digging but I found four (!) places where the password was stored (aside from the front-end setup thing). - /etc/mythtv/mythweb-htaccess
- /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt
- /etc/apache2/sites-available/mythweb.conf
- /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/mythweb.conf.apache
Even after changing all four of these to the new password, I*still* couldn't run Mythweb. I've since changed back to my old password and everything works again. I'm just annoyed that it was so difficult. If anyone knows where else the password gets stored please let me know as this was very difficult to find - I never did find it! I would certainly appreciate it! |

Firefox tweaks for a small screen |
|
I've recently upgraded my EeePC 701 to a 904HA and thought I'd try out the eeeBuntu base installation. It installed smoothly and after a few hours of tweaking and adding my programs the clouds parted and the sun came out. Everything was as it should be. The Firefox style was a little different than I have on Windows XP and instead of using Littlefox, which I used on my 701 (but always hated), I thought I'd just tweak the default style instead. |

Using cron jobs from CPanel |
|
I've set this up before but couldn't remember just how I did it. Instead of having to figure it out all over again next time, I thought I'd write it somewhere. Setting the time in CPanel's Standard Cron UI is very simple so I won't bother with that but the command for triggering a web page has a few things that messed me up. For those who don't care to read much, here's the command: wget -O - -q -t 1 'http://www.mydomain.net/doit.php?id=12345' >/dev/null 2>&1
Or, if you're using a .htaccess usernam and password, like this: wget -O - -q -t 1 'http://username:
This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
/doit.php?id=12345' >/dev/null 2>&1
Of course you'll need to insert your own url but you can otherwise cut and paste the line above and start running your php script as a cpanel cron job. |
