[mythtv-users] mythtv setup problem

[mike]

Thanks for your replies guys.  Whether I put a space between mythtv
and -setup the effect is exactly the same. i.e.
mythtv-setup
and
mythtv -setup

produce identical output.

There's your problem. The command is mythtv-setup, as in the program 

mythtv-setup, not mythtv with the setup option.

Did you actually type

  mythtv (blank) -setup   ?

If so, that probably won't get you the desired results.

On many MythTV installations, the command is mythtv-setup.

There are other possible problems, judging from the short log you
provided.   But let's start with a simple problem first.
