You can also see if your scripts can be run manually without the automatic crons
Menu > Info Panel > plugins > JobManager >click skyscraper.sh and run it
click skypicker.sh and run it
see if they run with no errorsi will try this today and see what happens

You have the 2 files in usr/script
skypicker.shskyscraper.sh
you have changed the permission of these 2 files to 755. You do not need 777 as we not writing to them
You have navigated to/etc/cron/crontabs
you have then opened up the 'roots' file and added in some crons.
0 9 * * * /usr/script/skyscraper.sh
*/30 * * * * /usr/script/skypicker.sh
i.e a 9am scrape. - every 30 mins change picks
You have then reboot your box. And the pictures haven;t changed at all???this is all correct and accurate
-
still not working.
KiddaC any suggestions?
-
i just followed what the published instructions said to do.
they are already set to 777 (both of them)
"*/30 * * * *" means every 30 minutes, so not sure why you say that would be wrong?
your version "00 * * * *" means at minute 0

spotted another few missing, but will check again in the morning.
Film4 HD was one of them.
-
actually, on checking, looks like only channel with missing data is Sky Sports PL
-
-
will try again when i get home tonight
-
i give up for the evening.
done the delete/reboot/rescan thing about 20 times over the past couple of hours. same result every time, zero data shown on screen even though it says it's downloading 76000 events.
log is full of "unknown channel" entries.
is it possible it's not matching the SRPs of the channels?
-
hmmm, i've done that already (although i manually deleted the epg.dat file rather than doing it via the menu).
tried it again as suggested, still same end result (although epg.dat file is now 410KB)
am i maybe using a wrong XML file? i did redownload the XML from the download thread the other day.
-
checking the size of the epg.dat file after a clear and download, it's 7KB, so clearly it's not saving any of the data.
-
same again this morning.
is it just me that's having the download issues where it says it's downloaded but nothing actually shows?
-
the download i got about 10 minutes ago seems to be fine?
-
looks like perseverance is the key here.
again, 5th time lucky and it's fully populated.
-
yeah i do have that set.
always thought it was a good thing to set to yes, however that won't help me just now as it's already cleared :loolz:
