Post subject: | MasterBackend with frontend --> MasterBackend only |
Hi, What is the correct way to change system type from MasterBackend with frontend (Mythfrontend) to MasterBackend only. I tried to change systemtype in linhes config and disable mythfrontend but the system is crashing and my pc poweroff few minutes later. Seem to be rely on Xymon state... idle.sy ? Maybe i can just disable the xorg check or activate analogic mode so the server don't notice it run headless. By the way the Linhes server is running great with a monitor connected to it. Thanks for your input Bob |

Not sure how to permanently change it, but in the interim, if you open a terminal and enter Code: sv stop frontend that will shut down the front end process.Granted it will restart the next time you reboot...but on the plus side if you need the front end, all you have to do is open a terminal and enter Code: sv start frontend

This setting basically runs Code: sudo remove_service.sh frontend which controls if the service runs at startup.Are you sure it is a crash or just a shutdown that is happening? The shutdown is probably from the setting in mythtv-setup > General > Shutdown/Wakeup Options > Idle shutdown timeout. Set that to 0 to disable shutdown. You can also keep the system from shutdown using mythshutdown --lock if the idle shutdown setting is other than 0. |

Hi again, Sorry for the delay I tried tonight to uncheck run frontend from service menu like brfransen said. Surprinsingly the run frontend box was not checked. So i checked it and wait 2 minutes and reboot. After I unchecked it and the computer turn off. I turned it back on again. Fews minutes later the computer was shutoff. The system turn off systematically after fews minutes when i turn it back on. The system was running great since my first post with a monitor connected to it (in frontend mode). Where should i start to look (what logs)? The WAF is in danger... Thanks Bob |

After unchecking Run Frontend you hit Finish and a progress bar came up right? Did you adjust the idle timeout or try the mythshutdown lock command I gave in the previous post? |

Hi, Thanks brfransen. I did the command shell command because my frontend was already not enable: Code: mythshutdown lock And i happy to tell you that my system is up and running since 2 days. The mythweb interface is snappier with mythfrontend disable on my relatively old pc server (Pentium4)... I have one more question remaining.
Thanks Bob |

I am not sure if mythshutdown --lock is preserved after a reboot. The correct way to disable myth shutting down the system is to change the Idle timeout in mythtv-setup to 0. |

Everything seem good now. Operations i did:
Rebooted set Idle timeout in mythtv-setup to 0 (By default it was set to 40 because it was a new installation (should be 0 i think)) sudo remove_service.sh frontend Thanks a lot Bob |
