[00:06] <Geoff918> I have successfully set up the local frontend/backend on a system. I am now attempting to get a remote frontend to log-in. I have successfully SSH'd into the machine, but it seems I am not sure what the default MySQL user is--so the end result is that I keep getting booted. What is the default MySQL user for Mythbuntu?
[00:27] <Geoff918> !help MySQL
[00:27] <Zinn> !help MySQL For a  complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi  Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number].
[00:29] <superm1> Geoff918, all that information is stored in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt
[00:29] <superm1> (on the backend)
[00:29] <superm1> or you can configure a security key for UPNP  in mythtv-setup and have it all autodiscovered
[00:29] <Geoff918> superm1: okay, I'll check it out real quickly
[00:31] <Geoff918> is it encrypted as most MySQL passwords are? I might just need to change it on the machine itself because I have tried a few options to log-in and all to no avail
[00:31] <superm1> Geoff918, it's in clear text on the backend, but only readable by the mythtv group
[00:32] <Geoff918> okay, so if I change it here....it will carry through?
[00:32] <superm1> dont change it there
[00:32] <superm1> that's just where you can fetch the info from
[00:32] <superm1> on your backend
[00:36] <Geoff918> okay, I think I got it. Apparently, I missed the most obvious thing on the MCC, MySQL service was not enabled...we'll give it a go...I'll be back if it fails. Thanks superm1
[00:50] <Geoff918> Well, I'm half-a-step closer. I now have a successful connection to the MySQL server on the remote backend. My local frontend is failing to launch, however. Any ideas on this one?
[00:51] <Geoff918> "local" -- e.g., remote from server
[00:51] <superm1> remove the stuff in ~./mythtv on the local frontend and try again now
[00:52] <Geoff918> delete the contents of the directory, or remove the directory as well?
[01:02] <Geoff918> okay, well sadly that didn't work. I tried it twice.
[01:07] <Geoff918> I'm trying an aptitude purge
[01:07] <superm1> its certainly a  configuration problem still
[01:08] <superm1> reinstalling binaries probably won't solve it if the conf file problem is local to a home directory
[01:10] <Geoff918> I can clear the applicable home directories
[01:10] <superm1> you should work through the problem iteratively
[01:10] <superm1> 1) Is the IP address set properly in mythtv-setup on the backend in BOTH boxes?
[01:11] <superm1> 2) Is the MySQL service enabled on the backend?
[01:11] <superm1> 3) Did you set a security key in mythtv-setup on the backend?
[01:11] <superm1> If all of the above are true, you should be offered to connect via upnp from a remote frontend
[01:11] <superm1> and it will fetch the information for you after you enter the security key
[01:12] <superm1> if that's not working, you can remove the ~/.mythtv directory and try once more on the remote frontend
[01:12] <Geoff918> MySQL is enabled on the backend--I have gotten a successful connection
[01:12] <superm1> so check 1 & 3 then
[01:12] <Geoff918> the backend is saying (on bootup) no uPnP found
[01:13] <superm1> please check mythtv-setup for the exact things I indicated
[01:13] <Geoff918> okay, will do...it may take a few
[01:13] <superm1> there are two boxes in the general section that require setting an IP address
[01:14] <Geoff918> on the backend they're both set to 192.168.1.2 with default port settings
[01:14] <superm1> and did you set a security key?
[01:14] <superm1> 0000 is fine and will allow any connections
[01:14] <superm1> but blank disables it
[01:16] <Geoff918> yes, I set 0000
[01:18] <superm1> so now when the frontend tries to connect, does it find it via upnp, if not, what are the errors?
[01:33] <Geoff9181> okay, after uninstalling the mythbuntu frontend on the local machine (and reinstalling), I got it to start-up and it said, "No uPnP backends found" which makes sense because I forgot to switch it to the same network. So, it wouldn't be there...

[04:01] <sidney> mythbuntu crashed while doing a scan for channels
[04:03] <sidney> now when i attempt to logon the computer lose the signal to the monitor
[05:32] <red_one> i installed mythbuntu from wubi, and it rebooted and is stuck at grub :(
[11:36] <xbmc> suggestion on a compact linux os to wakeonlan my MBE so I can reboot and start my diskless FE
[11:36] <xbmc> idea is to have network boot firrst boot preference and if it fail then boot from usb or cd
[11:37] <xbmc> will a std usb stick do the trick or do i need aspecial one?
[14:43] <jaume> hello
[14:44] <jaume> anyone has tested hvr-4000 with ubuntu and mythtv? no channels found in a full scan!
