Troubleshooting
===============
Sometimes it doesn't all go to plan! This page describes some of the problems
that community members have reported and how to fix them.
TypeError: object() takes no parameters
---------------------------------------
Backtrace::
2021-04-04 06:04:55,244 WARNING [mediagoblin.processing] No idea what happened here, but it failed: TypeError('object() takes no parameters',)
2021-04-04 06:04:55,262 ERROR [waitress] Exception while serving /submit/

File "/opt/mediagoblin/mediagoblin/media_types/video/transcoders.py", line 338, in __setup_videoscale_capsfilter
caps_struct.set_value('pixel-aspect-ratio', Gst.Fraction(1, 1))
TypeError: object() takes no parameters
This is caused by not having the package python3-gst-1.0 on Debian:
http://gstreamer-devel.966125.n4.nabble.com/How-to-use-Gst-Fraction-in-python-td4679228.html
alembic.util.exc.CommandError: Can't locate revision identified by 'e9212d3a12d3'
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is caused when you've enabled a plugin, run dbupdate and then disabled the
plugin again. Currently we recommend reinstalling the plugin, but we understand
this is not ideal. See the outstanding issue raised here:
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/5447
It's possible that manually manipulating the ``alembic_version`` table may help
you, but that approach is only recommended for experienced developers.
