I'm very interested in this too.

On my current EL6 installation, I use Mythweb 0.27 and Mythtv backend 0.26
(this is the obvious result of "yum update" in atrpms). This difference
gives some annoying behaviour (mainly presentation).

In case, it is not planned to upgrade the atrpms repo to mythbackend 0.27,
can I downgrade mythweb, or is that like asking for trouble (database
format has changed AFAIK).

Best regards,
Kenneth

mythweb-0.26 is still in the repository, so you should be able to yum
downgrade mythweb. The database format is tied to the backend, so I
think this should be safe.

Jim, I tried downgrading, but it wasn't that straightforward After
downgrade of mythweb, the page complained: "Current database version of 4
is newer than the code base version 3".

However, after a few iterations, I located a parameter within database
table "settings" named "WebDBSchemaVer". I changed this from 4 to 3, and so
far it works. But I guess this is not the only thing, that has changed in
the DB, so I wouldnt recommend other to try it without having a deeper
insight, than I have.

Kenneth:

I had the same problem a few months ago. I think I only modified
db_update.php after the downgrade to get mythweb working again. I've
included the changes to my db_update file below.

db_update.php:

define('WebDBSchemaVer', 4)

Hi all,

Any comments on the original questions in this thread reg. mythtv?:
--

Are there any plans to create 0.27 and 0.28 rpms for EL6?
Are there any issues that would make it difficult/impossible?
--

I would really appreciate to have 0.27 working on EL6. As of now, my
mythfrontend (v0.27-109-gcb744f8 on Fedora 20) cannot be used with my
backend hosted on Centos 6. The DB schema versions are apparently too
different.

Best wishes for a happy new year to all of you.
Kenneth
