Guide Listings Out of Date soon

#1

Post by mebehoof » Tue Nov 03, 2020 4:39 pm

HI, getting a message that guide listings will be out of date in fewer than 3 days. Select download to get the latest guide listings. What should I do?

Is my subscription due? ??

What is your source for guide data? Are you using EPG123? If so check your epg123 log file for errors. If EPG123, sounds like you guide update has been failing for some reason that should be noted in the log file.

Have you looked at the log file? Entries with [ERROR] can point out what is going wrong. What version of epg123 are you running?

You're going to need to look higher in the log to see if there are any errors. Start at 3:47:59pm today... that is when your last scheduled update ran.

Looks like you are having a either a network problem, or epg123 is being blocked from network access. Open the configuration GUI and click [Save & Execute] since your previous log entries from manually opening the configuration GUI didn't have a problem.

Did something change on your system about 11 days ago, give or take?

If you open up the configuration GUI, and you successfully login to Schedules Direct and see your lineups, then a [Save & Execute] should work since you already have a token. I'm not sure how you can get the same results.

Did a progress window popup right after the [Save & Execute]?

Looks DNS-related.
