Mythbuntu live frontend fails to start on 20100224

[Ronald McCollam]

Binary package hint: mythbuntu-live-autostart

When attempting to start the Mythbuntu LiveCD Frontend from the CD, a window is presented prompting the user for a 4-digit security code. When 'test' is clicked, this always fails.

Running the live frontend from the terminal produces the following:

2010-02-24 21:22:04.940 Python Database Connection: Using connection settings from /home/ubuntu/.mythtv/config.xml
2010-02-24 21:22:05.009 Python Database Connection: Database schema mismatch: we speak 1254 but database speaks 1244

This is caused by attempting to connect to a 0.22 backend. You can only
connect to a 0.23 backend. Perhaps we should find a way to better raise
those errors up through the UI.

Interesting. I wasn't prompted to specify the location of a backend, though it's possible that it was discovered through UPNP or something.

Is there anything I can do to capture more debugging information when starting this up?

[Mario Limonciello (superm1)]

It's actually entirely detected by UPnP. I suppose we should clarify that
on the page too...
