Tivoweb Space Used Internal Server Error

[steveroe]

Hi all,

Running Tivoweb 1.94, the "Space Used" module gives me the following error in the "DailyData" column:

Code: Select all

INTERNAL SERVER ERROR
--cut here--
action_spaceused '/' ''
syntax error in expression " / 745.1"
    while executing
"expr $amount / $mbperhr"
    (procedure "::action_spaceused" line 287)
    invoked from within
"::action_$action $chan $part $env"
    ("eval" body line 1)
    invoked from within
"eval {::action_$action $chan $part $env}"
--cut here-


Looks like $amount hasn't gained a value somewhere, any ideas?

Autospace bombs and dies with the same error sometimes. I think it's when a recording or new live buffer segment is created but doesn't have a length yet - can happen if you're unlucky and it tries to get the value at the wrong time.

In this case it's trying to divide null by 745.1 instead of <size> by 745.1

Just reload the page and see if it goes away!

Hmmm. I've never had anything but this error on this page, i.e. it's never worked for me since I started with Tivoweb in October (just finally annoyed me enough to post about it!)

Well found!. Thanks and thanks.

Actually I've noticed I made a few more tweaks since then. And I've tidied it a bit more today.

Try this one:

I've maintained it a bit. The Info and Info+ modules in TiVoweb went off in a different direction, and TiVoweb+ went further. A few people however prefer the layout of this space module. TiVoweb+ even has a go at accounting for the Clips space (reserved area of disc, only used once for Dossa and Joe) but gets the size of this wrong on tivos where you've reclaimed the space.

For comparison here's my take on the Info+ module for Tivoweb:

17-a-infoplus-UKdefault.zip

again you need to edit the bitrates lines 422-426 to your tivo's values.

These could both potentially read all the values from your tivo, but as it's an edit-once then forget operation (unless you're constantly tweaking your bitrates) I've never bothered.

I have created a fix for Autospace, and posted it on tivocommunity here:
