[00:00] <slick666> what database should I look at repairing?
[00:00] <slick666> I'm still pretty green on myth's backend
[00:07] <slick666> actually poking around seems to have revealed more of the problem
[00:08] <slick666>  * Starting MySQL database server mysqld                                 [ OK ]
[00:08] <slick666>  * Checking for corrupt, not cleanly closed and upgrade needing tables.
[00:08] <slick666> landon@MythBox:~$ ERROR 126 (HY000) at line 1: Incorrect key file for table '/tmp/#sql_1cb6_0.MYI'; try to repair it
[00:08] <slick666> the reason the sql database has an error is because it's in the /tmp directory
[00:08] <slick666> upon reboot /tmp is cleared so the database Does not exist
[00:09] <hads> The database name should be mythconverg
[00:10] <slick666> but why would the system be trying to open a database in a temp directory
[00:10] <hads> No idea, might be something to do with how the init script checks tables.
[00:11] <slick666> I think what I want to do is remove the file location from mysql's database listing (or something like that)
[00:11] <slick666> I think it was referenced when the system hung
[00:12] <slick666> since I rebooted the machine the database dne
[00:12] <slick666> so I have to tell mysql that it does not exist anymore, stop trying to access it
[00:12] <hads> mysqlcheck -A will check all database tables
[00:14] <slick666> tat command comes back as all clean
[00:15] <slick666> hmmmm
[00:15] <slick666> maybe a reboot is in order
[00:50] <mib_gvq4gmer> This may be a very stupid question!  If I install Mythbuntu, does it boot straight to Myth TV & not go through all the Ubuntu desktop stuff?  Thanks
[01:10] <slick666> ok guys, I rebooted and no dice
[01:10] <slick666> I get the error
[01:10] <slick666> Database error was: No database selected
[01:11] <slick666> even when I run mythbackend-setup
[01:12] <slick666> Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this
[01:12] <slick666> if I can't configure the backend what can I do to fix the software?
[01:51] <tgm4883> slick666, which iso did you use to install?
[01:53] <slick666> Mythbuntu 8.04
[01:53] <slick666> a while ago
[01:53] <slick666> been upgrading ever since
[01:54] <slick666> I think I figured out the configuration for the database with the exception of the password
[02:05] <slick666> Score, I think the loging should be -u root -p ''
[02:05] <slick666> (blank password)
[02:05] <slick666> at least mythfilldatabase is doing something
[02:46] <Shadow__X> !mysql
[02:46] <Zinn> If you are having problems connecting to your mysql database, you can perform the following to reconfigure it: 1. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0 (pay attention to the root password you set, you will need it for the next step) 2. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database 3. sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common
[02:46] <Shadow__X> !password
[02:46] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about password
[02:46] <Shadow__X> !default
[02:46] <Zinn> Sorry I don't know about default
[02:46] <Shadow__X> hmm
[02:47] <Shadow__X> !help
[02:47] <Zinn> !help For a  complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi  Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number].
[02:47] <Shadow__X> slick666, in /var/mythtv
[02:47] <Shadow__X> there is mysql.txt that has the mythtv password
[02:47] <Shadow__X> for root i am not sure but running as a user root you should beable to switch it
[03:16] <thedarkone> is there a way to unformat a drive
[03:21] <MythbuntuGuest26> Hey, is there something special that I have to do to get the music player in mythbuntu 8.04 to work?  I figured I'd just point it at an .mp3 file, which it sees, but when I click play, nothing happens...the pause button lights up, when I try to escape out it says something like "do you want to leave the music playing?"...but I get nothing
[03:21] <MythbuntuGuest26> videos will play through vlc on the box without a single problem (with sound too)
[10:30] <wombo1> Is the ubuntu forums down for anybody else?
[10:32] <wombo1> haha I dont know if it was me but I tried to do a wget from an attached file. Next thing no PC's in my place get get to the forums at all due to a 'Database Error'
[11:06] <wombo1> Looks like its up and running again now
[14:21] <JEDIDIAH__> your sound problems could be due to any number of things... including the sound being on mute. '-)
[15:58] <tracypeek> Good Morning! Has anyone here had success at running User Jobs? I would like to convert my .mpg's to .mp4 with HandBrakeCLI after a recording has finished. Ant ideas?
[15:59] <rhpot1991> tracypeek: I can help you out with the user job portion, but not with the handbrake portion
[15:59] <rhpot1991> tracypeek: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_job
[15:59] <rhpot1991> also you can look at the user job portions of this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythExport_old
[16:00] <tracypeek> Thanks for the info ... I will look at that first! Thanks Again!
[16:00] <rhpot1991> yell if you have any questions
[17:44] <asphere> I set up ACPI sleep/wake as per: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/ACPI_Wakeup
[17:44] <asphere> System woke up last night and recorded a show. very nice
[17:44] <asphere> but it didn't go back to sleep again
[17:44] <asphere> Do I need to make sure the frontend doesn't autostart if I want it to go back to sleep?
[18:48] <foxbuntu> asphere, yes, i believe you need to use and adjust the settings in mythwelcome
[18:49] <foxbuntu> asphere, but I am not positive on that
[18:51] <asphere> Thanks. Checking into mythwelcome. I think it's the ticket
[19:20] <thedarkone> hello
