Did you compile it from SVN? How did you preserve the knoppmyth customizations?

I just downloaded the officially released versions from http://www.mythtv.org
The tweaks that were introduced by KnoppMyth were lost. I'll try to get them back when I've got some spare time  . At least I think they are... I will know for sure in a 7 hours...

I don't know exactly what's different in KnoppMyth and MythTV 0.19 but one thing I've found out, is that the menustructure has changed a bit.
The best way of getting the original menu of KnoppMyth back is the following as root:
mkdir /usr/local/share/mythtv/themes/KnoppMythMenu
cp /usr/share/mythtv/*.xml /usr/local/share/mythtv/themes/KnoppMythMenu
Now you can select KnoppMythMenu under : Setup/Apearence, first page, last field.
To get MythWeb running you have to copy the contents of the folder mythweb (in the extracted bz2) into /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb.
Go to the folder where the install files of the plugins are located as root.
cd mythweb
cp -R . /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb
cd /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb
chgrp -R www-data data
chmod g+rw data
vi .htaccess
uncomment the 4 lines that look like Auth* and Require
Change the parameter of :
AuthType into Basic
AutoName into "MythTV"
AuthUserFile into /etc/apache/basicauth
Require into valid-user
This is how it will look:
Quote: AuthType Basic AuthName "MythTV" AuthUserFile /etc/apache/basicauth Require valid-user
Then you should have a working (and protected) MythWeb

Seriously, guys, cesman is working on it. He does have a "fulltime" job and a life, you know! If you can't give the testers a week to pound on it, then "have at it".

Maybe its just me but I really don't understand the "rush" to upgrade to the lastest and greatest. Maybe its because I'm a linux noob and used to a Windoze world. I never updated any of my servers to anthing until its been out for awhile and patched (a new windows OS is a no no until at least SP3 and only if that SP actually works).
Knoppmyth has a fairly easy upgrade path (I'm a total linux noob and I did it), give the guys some time to pound on it a bit. Saves you from having to come on the boards and crying about why they released it so quickly if you run into bugs.

The mythtv developers have already done all that to a reasonable extent, else they would have released it as "alpha" instead of "stable".
Plus, they have completely reworked mythweb and that would make it a lot more feature rich than earlier versions.
Plus, they have an OSD keyboard.
Plus, other devs will be upgrading third party addons for mythtv soon (like nuv2disc, mythburn etc) & it will presumably be default-compatible with the latest stable mythtv release.

I installed 0.19 allready, and must say there are a lot of things really improved!
- MythMusic now has the wonderfull feature Search.
- OSD Keyboard
- MythWeb improved very very very much.
But one of the most important things which I really wanted was Teletext on IVTV (PVR-350) but unfortunately that didn't made it in the release yet.
I'm now trying to patch and reinstall mythtv and hopefully it's working now...

From the "old" days (0.17 "release"):
Isaac Richards wrote: All a release is is a snapshot of cvs at the time of the release. Nothing more. I make no guarantees as to its stability. I certainly don't consider this particular issue to be a major bug or anything which would make me consider going back and spending several hours putting out a new release just to fix it.
Things have improved a bit since then. Some of the devs have committed to keeping a "stable" branch when a new version is released. But the "testing" that goes into a "release" is still mostly ad-hoc. Your comment and the innocent faith behind it made me chuckle. Sorry.

hey .. i tried following your instructions for mythweb, but i had to do the following extra:
in /etc/apache/httpd.conf, change AllowOverride to All
in /etc/apache/modules.conf, add LoadModule env_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_env.so

The "AllowOverride All" bit may have undone a lot of the security stuff you were trying to enable.

What do you have in your /etc/apache/httpd.conf?
For some reason, http://192.168.1.100/mythweb gives me "Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand."
But http://192.168.1.100/mythweb/mythweb.php seems to be working fine ...
