I am also running into this issue of not being able to complete the backend setup. If there is any trace information that will help in capturing more information I would be happy to assist. In my case I get the following:
QMYSQL3: Unable to connect QMYSQL3: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'bains-homepc' (111) I checked permissions on mythconverg database for user 'mythtv' to ensure I could not login and query the database to rule out acccess issues. During one purge and reinstall cycle I got access denied for mythtv user so I granted permissions using the command below: mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"192.168.1.%" identified by "mythtv"; mysql> flush privileges; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) Attached are screenshots of setup error and error during mythfilldatabase and the log complete removal and reinstall of mythtv. Any assistance in helping the setup forward would be appreciated. I am trying to move away from Windows on home pc. ** Attachment added: "Screenshots and log of installation." http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17663277/mythtv_dberr3.zip -- mythtv-setup: unable to connect to database https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243504 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
