Newbie - Setup Issues On New Centos 7 Build
Added by David Willis about 10 years ago
Hi All,
Just built my first TVHeadend server on a new Centos 7 box after a few challenges.
Service status shows as follows:
Sep 28 14:53:44 nettv.xxxxxx.com tvheadend14799: epggrab: using internal grab search
Sep 28 14:53:44 nettv.xxxxxx.com tvheadend14799: epgdb: database does not exist

Sep 28 14:56:34 nettv.xxxxxx.com tvheadend15232: Reloading tvheadend: [ OK ]
Sep 28 14:56:34 nettv.xxxxxx.com systemd1: Reloaded LSB: run tvheadend daemon.
All seems running OK however cannot open on port 9981. Port is open on server.
iptables is off.
Any ideas gratefully accepted.
Thanks
Dave

Hi,
is the firewall really disabled? In Centos 7 the default firewall service ist firewalld not iptables.
Maybe it is an issue with SELinux?

run systemctl status tvheadend.service and look for the -c /somedir/somefile
make sure that file exists.
when I was setting up my centos 7 I found that running tvheadend as user tvheadend defaults to /home/tvheadened/.hts/config which the centos service file calls for /home/tvheadend/config this discrepancy means that tvheadend doesn't find a config source to reference.
Not sure but checking this might help.
