Hi all,

With lots of help from Mark Clarkstone I have a lovely TVHE server running on Debian.

All is well - but I have been locked out of the config as the web interface doesn't recognise my username or password.

Very strange - so I connected via putty and used the commannd sudo dpkg-reconfigure tvheadend

I re-entered my username and password, rebooted the server.

Check the values of the superuser file.

sudo cat /home/hts/.hts/tvheadend/superuser. 

I'm still not able to login

Use the incognito mode on the browser to rule out caching, otherwise modify the startup script to temporarily disable acl.

Copy these exactly

sudo sed -i 's/ARGS="-f"/ARGS="-f --noacl"/g' /etc/init.d/tvheadend
sudo service tvheadend restart

Open up the webui & create yourself another account, with admin privileges, don't forget to add a password (using the password tab). Or remove the network prefix from the * account.

Revert the above lines to the start up script..

sudo sed -i 's/ARGS="-f --noacl"/ARGS="-f"/g' /etc/init.d/tvheadend
sudo service tvheadend restart

Hopefully that'll help :p

Any ideas?

Thank you Mark, this has fixed it

Very strange

Check the values of the superuser file.
sudo cat /home/hts/.hts/tvheadend/superuser.

Did this and they were correct

Tried in-private browsing which didn't help

All sorted now.
