Description
Hi,
Since the last package updates for Ubuntu, tvheadend seems to be installed properly, however it doesn't start at all.
Launching tvheadend from console I saw it is installed on "/home/*user*/.hts/tvheadend" instead of "/home/*hts*/.hts/tvheadend" as was till few updates ago.
The last version Im able to upgrade and retain all configuration etc is 4.3-683~gc201bd9, so uninstalling the most recent and installing manually this version, it run as expected.
Could anyone check this?
Thanks

What is the contents of /etc/default/tvheadend? And what version of Ubuntu?
What does
sudo systemctl status tvheadend sudo journalctl -xe -t tvheadendoutput?

Thanks Mark! I didn't check the service status and this was the issue...
So looking to the systemctl status:
$ sudo systemctl status tvheadend
● tvheadend.service - Tvheadend - a TV streaming server and DVR
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/tvheadend.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
I enabled the service with sudo systemctl enable tvheadend and now is working as expected.
Not sure why till some versions the service was always enabled and with the recent no...
Thx again

Latest git master has a service file included. Did you already have one setup?
