I upgraded for the first time. I had the same install for about 1.5 years. After I finished upgrading I was having a problem with the backend not starting. So I redid the autoupgrade, but before I did I backedup again while the backend was not working. Now I fixed my backend problem, but my recording information is gone. Is it because I backedup while the backend was not working or is there some way to fix it?

Something else must be wrong. If you backed up and something goes a miss, you can restart the auto upgrade w/o backing up again. Are the backup files in /myth/backup?

There are several files in the /myth/backup directory:

mythconverg.sql.bz2.1
mythconverg.sql.bz2.2
mythconverg.sql.bz2.3
mythconverg.sql.bz2.4
mythconverg.sql.bz2.5
mythconverg.sql.bz2.6
mythconverg.sql.bz2.7
mythconverg.sql.bz2.8
mythconverg.sql.bz2.9
myconverg.sql.gz
myconverg.sql.gz1
savedfiles.tar.bz2.1
savedfiles.tar.bz2.2
savedfiles.tar.bz2.3
savedfiles.tar.bz2.4
savedfiles.tar.bz2.5
savedfiles.tar.bz2.6
savedfiles.tar.bz2.7
savedfiles.tar.bz2.8
savedfiles.tar.bz2.9
savedfiles.tar.gz

Any ideas?

Date stamps on those files? Actual output from
Code:
ls -al /myth/backup/

would be preferred.

Your DB backup looks truncated. As root, try moving mythconverg.sql.gz.1 to mythconverg.sql.gz and restoring...
Code:
mv /myth/backup/mythconverg.sql.gz.1 /myth/backup/mythconverg.sql.gz
mythrestore

BTW - This is probably a result of the issue covered under Know Changes 1.2 and Phase 0 step 1.3 in the R5F1 Hints...

That worked to get the database listings back, but now every recording says "The file for this recording cannot be found". It seem to be every recording from oldest to newest. My /myth/tv is filled with the .mpg and mpg.png files for the recordings. Any ideas?

You didn't accidentally change your hostname did you? That can cause all kinds of screwy problems. What does this show on your box?
Code:
root@black2:~# hostname
black2
root@black2:~# mysql mythconverg -e "select * from settings where value='RecordFilePrefix'"
+------------------+----------+----------+
| value            | data     | hostname |
+------------------+----------+----------+
| RecordFilePrefix | /myth/tv | black2   |
+------------------+----------+----------+

The data field said /mnt/store, so I changed it in the setup to /myth/tv and that solved it. Awsome help! Thank you so much!
