Failed to startup tvservice (2 Viewers)

[srthimsen]

Attempting to clean-install 1.19.0 TV-server standalone, but receiving the attached error as installation is finishing (or whenever attempting to open TV-Server Configuration).

I uninstalled MediaPortal with the "delete everything" option (to remove any old database, etc.), along with uninstalling MySql 5, then reinstalled. Same error.

can you try to use new database
TV Server Configuration Fails To Start - get_Cards() error
on schema name, rename MpTvDb to MpTvDb2 and try.

Thank you for the reply. I just tried this (again, I had neglected to mention I had tried this earlier), with a new schema name, with the same eventual error. Clicking "Test" in the database selection window yields successful results.

do you have MP logs ?

Logs attached

your port 554 seems to be already in use, try to change it inside TVServer configuration.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to open the TVServer configuration program.

Would that port be used because I have NextPVR installed still? I was hoping to not delete it until I got MP running and tested.

Hi.
You most likely don't need to uninstall NextPVR. Stopping the service and disable the autostart should be enough. But I never used NextPVR before (always wanted to try but never found the time) so I only can guess...

This is really strange.

I stopped the NPVR service, reinstalled MP fresh, and still having the same error I originally posted the picture of happen.

I had installed MP last year, on this machine, with no issues (other than it wasn't working well with Emby at that point, so I uninstalled it). So really confused why I can't even open the TV Configurator.

[UPDATE]
I tried uninstalling NPVR entirely, preventing Emby from starting automatically, rebooting, disconnecting the USB tuner from the computer and doing a clean installation of MP. Still same error.
I'm going to try installing drivers for the tuner again, on the off chance that's preventing things from working.

@azzuro Thanks for the heads up about port 554. I found that's also a port used by some other software on my computer. I'm unable to adjust the port that software uses - is there a method to change the port in MP via a configuration file?
