Are you sure you've told mythfilldatabase which xml file to use, and
that it exists? I run mine like this:

$ /usr/local/bin/tv_grab_au_v1.34 --config-file
/home/mythtv/.xmltv/tv_grab_au_9msn.conf
$ mythfilldatabase --file 1 7 /home/mythtv/.xmltv/tvlistings_9msn.xml

And my config file looks like this:

$conf = {
  'days' => 7,
  'output' => '/home/mythtv/.xmltv/tvlistings_9msn.xml',
  'TZ' => '+1000',
  'services' => [
    {
      'name' => 'free',
      'region' => 'Sydney',
      'regionid' => '73'
    }
  ],
  'slow' => 1
};
$channels = {
  'ABC NSW' => 'nsw.abc.gov.au',
  'ABC2' => 'abc2.abc.gov.au',
  'CHANNEL NINE SYDNEY' => 'sydney.nine.com.au',
  'CHANNEL SEVEN SYDNEY' => 'sydney.seven.com.au',
  'NETWORK TEN SYDNEY' => 'sydney.ten.com.au',
  'SBS NEWS' => 'news.sbs.com.au',
  'SBS SYDNEY' => 'sydney.sbs.com.au'
};
