[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1300688, member: 141969"] I have looked at your logs, but as usual they mean mostly nothing to me. However, I did notice this line in "tvserver_SetupTv.log": [INDENT][B]SetupDatabaseForm: Added dependency for TvService - MySQL[/B][/INDENT] I don't understand the differences between MySQL and MariaDB, but I was under the impression that MariaDB is a fork of MySQL, and that the programming interfaces are mostly identical. So in the MP logs, where it makes reference to "MySQL", that applies equally to MariaDB. However, since you could have both MySQL and MariaDB installed on your system, the one place where it [i]does[/i] matter whether the string is "MySQL" or "MariaDB" is the place where MP registers the dependency. The above log line suggests to me that MP is registering a dependency on MySQL, whereas it should be registering a dependency on MariaDB. But what do I know?
