[00:06] 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] !help MySQL [00:27] !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] Geoff918, all that information is stored in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt [00:29] (on the backend) [00:29] or you can configure a security key for UPNP in mythtv-setup and have it all autodiscovered [00:29] superm1: okay, I'll check it out real quickly [00:31] 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] Geoff918, it's in clear text on the backend, but only readable by the mythtv group [00:32] okay, so if I change it here....it will carry through? [00:32] dont change it there [00:32] that's just where you can fetch the info from [00:32] on your backend [00:36] 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] 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] "local" -- e.g., remote from server [00:51] remove the stuff in ~./mythtv on the local frontend and try again now [00:52] delete the contents of the directory, or remove the directory as well? [01:02] okay, well sadly that didn't work. I tried it twice. [01:07] I'm trying an aptitude purge [01:07] its certainly a configuration problem still [01:08] reinstalling binaries probably won't solve it if the conf file problem is local to a home directory [01:10] I can clear the applicable home directories [01:10] you should work through the problem iteratively [01:10] 1) Is the IP address set properly in mythtv-setup on the backend in BOTH boxes? [01:11] 2) Is the MySQL service enabled on the backend? [01:11] 3) Did you set a security key in mythtv-setup on the backend? [01:11] If all of the above are true, you should be offered to connect via upnp from a remote frontend [01:11] and it will fetch the information for you after you enter the security key [01:12] if that's not working, you can remove the ~/.mythtv directory and try once more on the remote frontend [01:12] MySQL is enabled on the backend--I have gotten a successful connection [01:12] so check 1 & 3 then [01:12] the backend is saying (on bootup) no uPnP found [01:13] please check mythtv-setup for the exact things I indicated [01:13] okay, will do...it may take a few [01:13] there are two boxes in the general section that require setting an IP address [01:14] on the backend they're both set to 192.168.1.2 with default port settings [01:14] and did you set a security key? [01:14] 0000 is fine and will allow any connections [01:14] but blank disables it [01:16] yes, I set 0000 [01:18] so now when the frontend tries to connect, does it find it via upnp, if not, what are the errors? [01:33] 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...

So, it wouldn't be there... [04:01] mythbuntu crashed while doing a scan for channels [04:03] now when i attempt to logon the computer lose the signal to the monitor [05:32] i installed mythbuntu from wubi, and it rebooted and is stuck at grub :( [11:36] suggestion on a compact linux os to wakeonlan my MBE so I can reboot and start my diskless FE [11:36] idea is to have network boot firrst boot preference and if it fail then boot from usb or cd [11:37] will a std usb stick do the trick or do i need aspecial one? [14:43] hello [14:44] anyone has tested hvr-4000 with ubuntu and mythtv? no channels found in a full scan! === Daviey changed the topic of #ubuntu-mythtv to: Mythbuntu 9.10 released :: Please visit www.mythbuntu.org for more information :: Paste logs @ http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com ** Please stick around for people to answer your question **
