Hi, I have installed your script as you described. I receive the following error in the Apache2 error_log after trying to access the website. Do you have any hint for me?

Thanks

did you make the directory /var/www/html/python_errors and make it group www-data and group writable? (or whatever httpd runs as)

once you've done that, if python throws a stack trace it will write a file there which you can access as http//example/python_errors

also, you need to have created the directory /var/lib/tvh_epg/ and make it group www-data and group writable? (or whatever httpd runs as)

that should allow you to go into the settings menu and set the values to your local services. the EPG cgi-bin doesn't need to run on the same server as TVH, which might be a good thing if you're running TVH on a low powered device like a Pi.

since I've not had any followup questions, I'm closing this ticket.
