I'm guessing there are Google authentication issues. You will get triangles for all future events, but for anything from today, it should be able to properly verify if your Google Account settings are correct.

p.s. vernon wells?

Right... I forgot I called him a slug way back when! I've still been advocating a trade, especially because right now he actually has some trade value. Doubt there would be any takers - he still makes too much money. My thoughts: The Blue Jays aren't going to win the East. They'll likely finish 4th in the AL East assuming Boston picks it up. You can't rebuild the entire roster except Wells. If you're rebuilding then save the money and get some blue chip prospects for him (before his BA falls below .300). And based on the avg attendance in Toronto these days, they ought to be looking to save every penny they can.

problem solved!!
it was my cat's fault.

as mentioned above in this thread, when i read that SRE required
a google account, i created an account for my cat that would be
used for this functionality.

now i know why they're called dumb animals.


the dumb kitty entered her account as *@google.com
instead of *@gmail.com

i would expect it to work now

edit: as of saturday morning, the log no longer shows the error message about google account and passworkd, but i still have all yellow triangles

Yes, overrides are implemented. If an override doesn't stick then check the log file, it should tell you why. Also, the status message at the bottom right of the web UI will also give you a (basic) error message.

still having problems here........have to check log file.

suggested feature: add access to log file from options page.
(i may be 2 or 3 floors away from my sage machine when i log in
so easy remote access to the log would be helpful)

Yeah, the log viewer will be there before beta tag removed. If Google id/pwd is correct then everything should "just work." Keep me posted.

this morning, i added the brewers-twins game, scheduled for 4pm but nothing happened in sage to indicate that it was tracking that game, and all my yellow triangles are still there.

here is a section of my sre log that captures some stuff before i fixed the email address problem yesterday and up to today.

let me know if you need anything more.

I too can't get SRE to work.. I see nothing in the recordings list and this in the sre.log file..


com.google.code.livepvrdata.rpc.AuthenticationException: com.google.gdata.client.GoogleService$CaptchaRequiredException: Captcha required

I deleted the entire JARs directory and did a clean install of this, Jetty Webserver and the web server interface (it isn't working either), though I do see the SRE webpages, so I know Jetty is working in some reduced manner..

Any idea what the Captcha required bit is about?

[Slugger]

If you see this error:

com.google.code.livepvrdata.rpc.AuthenticationException: com.google.gdata.client.GoogleService$CaptchaRequiredException: Captcha required

Go to this page:

https://www.google.com/accounts/DisplayUnlockCaptcha

And unlock your Google Account. After you unlock it then SRE should be able to authenticate and all should be good.

If SRE nor the web interface are working then something is wrong with Jetty. That's where you need to focus your attention. However, if SRE is writing captcha errors, etc. to the log file then SRE is running so it may be a firewall issue preventing access to the web sites?

See post right above this one.

All dependencies are upgraded automatically. PM me your IP address and I'll have the web logs of livepvrdata.com looked at to see why you're not able to authenticate with the web service.

Sorry if this is a bone-headed question.. But I went to install this plugin and the plug-in info screen there is a big warning in all caps saying: DO NOT INSTALL THIS ON A SAGE CLIENT, INSTALL DIRECTLY ON SAGE SERVER.

So that leaves a problem for me because I use the WHS version of Sage with a HD200 as my only means of connecting to the Sage UI. So can I install this from the HD200?

Yes, installing from HD200 is fine (because that'll install it on the SageTV server). The warning refers only to installation from a SageTVClient (i.e. PC client). Do not install it on a SageTVClient instance, it will not work.

here is error message i got with your command line

That's a firewall issue. Java is unable to connect to the remote host (livepvrdata.com in this case). Since it's timing out then that tells me there's a firewall silently dropping packets.

The client will only ever attempt to connect to the following URLs:

https://livepvrdata.appspot.com/auth (port 443)
http://livepvrdata.appspot.com/rpc (port 80)

[cat6man]

so does installing the plugin take care of the firewall or do i need to manually do this? (at home..........obviously i can't modify corporate firewall)

i'll redo the test at home tonight and check firewall. what is the name of the program(s) that need firewall access? is it just SRE or something else?
