[mythtvnz] Database management

[Paul]

Hi All

What is the current set up for database optimisation?

In Mythbuntu 16.04 I selected "optimise database" in mythbuntu control 
panel and a cron job was set up to run  optimize_mythdb.pl

I'm using the forked  Mythbuntu control panel in Xubuntu 20.04 ,but it 
has no database set up functions.

Prior to creating a cron job to run optimize_mythdb.pl, I tried to run 
optimize_mythdb.pl from the command line and I get:

Can't locate MythTV.pm in @INC (you may need to install the MythTV 
module) (@INC contains: /etc/perl 
/usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.30.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.30.0 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.30 /usr/share/perl5 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.30 /usr/share/perl/5.30 
/usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base) at 
/usr/share/doc/mythtv-backend/contrib/maintenance/optimize_mythdb.pl 
line 15.

Perl 5.30 is installed on my system

I found this thread:

<https://lists.archive.carbon60.com/mythtv/users/628894?search_string=MythTV.pm;#628894>

Is the solution suggested advisable ,or are  there  other suggestions?

Thanks
