[15:49] <stevie_man> hey all, I'm trying to get my backend up and running but I cannot connect to the database. I get the error: "Cannot login". Why I try to login to mysql using the mythtv user I get access denied for user 'mythtv@localhost'. I let myth do the whole automatic table setup thing
[15:56] <tgm4883> stevie_man, is mysql started
[15:57] <stevie_man> tgm4883: yes, I was looking at the logs and I think mythbackend was using the hosts entry for 127.0.0.1 I had that said zues (name of the server) and not the one that said localhost
[15:58] <tgm4883> stevie_man, so 'mysql -u mythtv -p mythconverg' gives you access denied?
[15:58] <stevie_man> yep
[15:59] <tgm4883> odd
[15:59] <stevie_man> very
[15:59] <tgm4883> I'd try resetting it
[15:59] <tgm4883> !mysql
[15:59] <Zinn> If you are having problems connecting to your mysql database, perform the following to reconfigure it: [1] sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.5 (pay attention to the root password you set, you will need it later)  [2] sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database [3] sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common
[15:59] <stevie_man> I'm going to wipe everything and try again with the 127.0.0.1 zues entry commented out
[16:05] <stevie_man> So here is my mythbackend log. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6184448/
[16:05] <stevie_man> Yes I know I'm using .24 it's for testing only before I switch everythinf over to .27
[16:11] <tgm4883> stevie_man, did you go though mythtv-setup?
[16:11] <tgm4883> stevie_man, that is so old, i'm not even sure I remember all of the oddities of it
[16:15] <stevie_man> yah, that's what is generated when I do the mythtv-setup
[16:27] <stevie_man> what is this? Using configuration directory = /var/lib/mythtv/.mythtv
[16:27] <stevie_man> when I try to cd into it I'm told it is not a directory and when I try to edit it it's not a file
[16:28] <tgm4883> it looks like it thinks that is the home directory for the mythtv user
[16:28] <tgm4883> what did you do?
[16:28] <stevie_man> Nothing that I know of
[16:28] <tgm4883> what version of ubuntu is this?
[16:29] <stevie_man> I'm on Debian Squeeze
[16:29] <tgm4883> ok, where did you install the packages from?
[16:32] <stevie_man> from www.deb-multimedia.org
[16:33] <tgm4883> hmm
[16:33] <tgm4883> stevie_man, so for some reason, their packages are looking in that directory for the config files
[16:33]  * tgm4883 shrugs
[16:34] <stevie_man> even better the setup didn't create the mysql users this time around
[16:34] <stevie_man> oh that one was my fault
[16:35] <tgm4883> stevie_man, this is why I tend to recommend mythbuntu
[16:35] <stevie_man> yah, this is only a test, a prove of concept before I replace my working mediaportal frontends with mythbuntu
[16:38] <stevie_man> so even before I run the ,ythtv-setup the user cannot connect to the database
[16:41] <tgm4883> is the user even setup in the database?
[18:20] <stevie_man> tgm4883: The user was setup in the database twice. One @localhost and once @%
[18:42] <stevie_man> What does the mythbuntu-repos.deb file do? (located at http://www.mythbuntu.org/files/mythbuntu-repos.deb)
[18:43] <tgm4883> stevie_man, it adds the repos tab to MCC for versions prior to 12.04
[18:44] <stevie_man> ah, can I use this to install .25 then? (11.04?)
[18:46] <tgm4883> yea I think it's still available
[18:46] <tgm4883> yea it's still available

[20:02] <stevie_man> tgm4883: how do I use the mythbuntu repo installer package once it is installed?
[20:03] <tgm4883> stevie_man, you need mythbuntu-control-centre
[20:05] <stevie_man> oh so I need to be in mythbuntu to use the repo-installer?
[20:05] <tgm4883> stevie_man, no, mythbuntu-control-centre is another package. the repo installer is a plugin for i
[20:11] <stevie_man> ah, I guess there isn't a control centre for Debian
