Grab returned no data
Added by Fredrik Lidén about 12 years ago
Hello,
I've got a strange problem since i updated tvheadend to 3.2 beta, i can't get xmltv to work.
Oct 10 11:44:02 xmltv: external socket enabled
Oct 10 11:44:02 /usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb: grab /usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb
Oct 10 11:44:02 epgdb: loaded v2
Oct 10 11:44:02 epgdb: channels 0

Oct 10 11:44:02 epgdb: episodes 1089
Oct 10 11:44:02 epgdb: broadcasts 1089
Oct 10 11:44:03 pyepg: no output detected
Oct 10 11:44:03 /usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb: grab returned no data
Oct 10 11:44:03 /usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb: grab /usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb
I have done tv_grab_se_swedb --configure but it regret to work anyway, is there any one else with the same problem, or any one with a solution?
Best regards

This almost always means that the configuration has not been done properly. Try switching to the user that TVH runs as (hts?) and running the tv_grab* script manually and see what happens.

Try:
sudo su - hts
assuming you have sudo access

Onte step to the right direction, now to problem #2
xbmc@xbmc:~$ sudo su - hts
hts@xbmc:~$ /usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb --configure
cannot mkdir /home/hts/.xmltv: Permission denied at /usr/share/perl5/XMLTV/Config_file.pm line 24.
hts@xbmc:~$ sudo /usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb --configure
[sudo] password for hts: <dunno>

It looks to me like you've done something wrong and run the xmltv configuration before as root or something like that.
Try:
sudo rm -rf ~hts/.xmltv
sudo su - hts
/usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb --configure

I just ran it like sudo /usr/bin/tv_grab_se_swedb --configure before, nothing else
i've still got the same error.
RE: Grab returned no data - Added by Adam Sutton about 12 years ago
Please try what I suggested. You're running the configure as root that will definitely not work.

Yeah i did that without success. Still the same error..

If you can come along to the IRC channel #hts it will be easier to offer advice as we can try things in real-time rather than ping-pong'ing on here.

I have the same issue.
When I log into the hts user that is fine.
But when I try to do sudo it asks for the password.
What is the hts users password????
Thanks
