Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Triaged Bug description: After upgrading to Mythbuntu 10.04 beta, mythbackend doesn't work. It's unable to connect to the database, because it can't find mysql.txt, I suppose because in the service mythbackend's context, either MYTHCONFDIR is not set, or HOME is not set. Since I have a correct mysql.txt both in /etc/mythtv/ and in $HOME/.mythtv. If I start mythbackend by hand in a terminal, it works fine. It spews this continually: ................................................................................ 2010-03-24 21:44:17.606 UPnPautoconf() - No UPnP backends found 2010-03-24 21:44:17.606 No UPnP backends found No UPnP backends found Would you like to configure the database connection now?
