mythweb does not use storagegroup streaming does not work

[Michael Gisbers <michael@…>]

Up to [12424] streaming does not work in mythweb.

I only get an error message 'xxx does not exist in the recordings directory.'.

After some search I realized that mythweb is not able to use storagegroup by now.

Are the recordings on the local drive or on a different backend?

[Michael Gisbers <michael@…>]

It's on same backend.

In modules/stream/handler.pl existence of $filename/$basename is checked (line 73 ff.).

[Michael Gisbers <michael@…>]

I just created following 'workaround'

line 72 ff.: <code># Get the filename on disk

$sh = $dbh->prepare('SELECT dirname

FROM storagegroup

WHERE hostname=?');

$sh->execute(hostname);

print header();

my $file; while ( ($filename) = $sh->fetchrow_array() ) {

if ( -e "$filename/$basename" ) {

$file = "$filename/$basename"; last;

}

} $sh->finish;

$filename = $file;</code>

this seams to work with both of my storagegroups but still needs much work to respect stored storagegroups in recorded.

(In [12429]) update the perl stream handler.pl file to use storage group directories instead of RecordFilePrefix. closes #2875

[Michael Gisbers <michael@…>]

Your fix assumes that there is only ONE possible dirname per storagegroup.

In reality there can be more than one dirnames per storagegroup. e. g.:

 mysql> select * from storagegroup;
 +----+-----------+----------+--------------+
 | id | groupname | hostname | dirname      |
 +----+-----------+----------+--------------+
 |  1 | Default   | neptun   | /mnt/store/  |
 |  2 | Default   | neptun   | /mnt/store1/ |
 +----+-----------+----------+--------------+
 2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

So there may be more than just one result to check.

(In [12435]) Fix things to scan for all possible storage group directories, rather than just the default. Hopefully closes #2875 for good.
