Where will Myth report this?

Right now if I'm watching live TV, pressing R works.
If I am in the EPG, selecting the show and doing any record option will
not work.

I'm thinking the database might be having troubles, since Mythweb is
acting funny:

Recording Statistics

Number of shows:
     0
Number of episodes:
     0
First recording:
     Wednesday December 31st, 1969
Last recording:
     Wednesday December 31st, 1969
Total Time:
     wasted

  (I have recorded a few shows at this point).

I also can't seem to delete via the web interface.

I've restarted the backend several times. I'd love to look at the SQL,
but the Apache2/phpmyadmin setup shipped in Ubuntu is broken, and I
haven't been able to figure out why (the PHP scripts in MythTV work, but
the PHP scripts in phpMyAdmin are sent RAW to my browser!).

I have the correct modules loaded, etc..
