Re: [Dorset] Getting MythTV to work in Kubuntu 10.10

On your backend system, do you have MySQL listening on localhost (127.0.0.1) only, or is it listening on your LAN interface?

There should be no need to use any kind of sudo command to open the database. -- You can have everything in life you want if you help enough other people get what they want - Zig Ziglar.

Sorry, it has nothing to do with the user under which MythTV is running. The database connection parameters are specified in the UI: you can connect as whatever user you want. You're right, of course. -- Chris Dennis cgden...@btinternet.com Fordingbridge, Hampshire, UK -- Next meeting: Blandford Forum, Wednesday 2011-05-04 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ How to Report Bugs Effectively: http://goo.gl/4Xue

If you have more questions, I will try to help - I've been running Myth for a few years now, and currently have a separate front end and back end, both running Debian (so not using Mythbuntu). It can take a while to get things just right, and of course it's a changing environment - my local transmitter has just started transmitting Freeview in HD, so that's something new to get to grips with. -- You can have everything in life you want if you help enough other people get what they want - Zig Ziglar.
