mc2xml cron job not working
#1
I have the tvheadend back end running. I can run mc2xml from the directory it resides in (/home/hts/mc2xml/) but if i try and run it from the full path in order to have a script in the cron.daily directory to run it, it errors out with a:
Code:
Loading ..... : mc2xml (c) <[email protected]> (v1.2)
Reminder .... : Unauthorized redistribution prohibited.
Reminder .... : If this software is useful, please donate!
Missing -g

any ideas? all the permissions look fine and open to everyone.

I added a line in my mc2xml script that writes the date to a file in my home directory when the script it run, something like:
date > /home/username/last_time_mc2xml_ran.txt

My tvheadend program guide has been staying up to date so the fix was good
