Subject: vdr script failed to start
Date: Sat, 5 Jan 2008 13:50:03 +0000 (UTC)

 1.1

Hi All.

Today I had the bad idea of updating vdr just to see how xinelibout is working
compared to softdevice (never ever update a perfectly working system). The
result is that the vdr init script doesn't work anymore.

This is the output:

pvr ~ # /etc/init.d/vdr start
 * Preparing start of vdr:
 *   config files ...                                                          
                                                                       [ ok ]
 *   Waiting for prerequisits (devices nodes etc.) ...
 * waited 0 seconds                                                            
                                                                       [ ok ]
 * Starting vdr-1.4.7 ...
 *   CMDLINE: start-stop-daemon " '--start' '--chdir' '/var/vdr' '--exec'
'/usr/bin/vdr'" -- " '-u' 'vdr' '--watchdog=60' '--epgfile=/video/epg.data'
'--log=3' '--video=/video' '--lirc'
'--record=/usr/share/vdr/bin/vdrrecord-gate.sh' '--plugin=softdevice -vo

                                                                       [ !! ]
 * Addon /usr/share/vdr/rcscript/post-start-50-svdrp.sh failed.

And this is what is written to the log:

Jan  5 14:42:18 pvr rc-scripts: aborted, please check logfile
Jan  5 14:42:18 pvr rc-scripts: Addon
/usr/share/vdr/rcscript/post-start-50-svdrp.sh failed.

(yes, absolutely nothing)

Running vdr from the command line works. It is just the script that doesn't.

I guess that something was updated and the dependencies of who-knows-what
weren't, but I have no clue on what to update or check.

Can someone give me some hint on what to check ?

Thanks.
Marco.
