[mythtv-users] mythfilldatabase fails on every query

Hi,

I just installed MythTV and I have just finished importing mc.sql into my
mysql database and running mythtv-setup. Like I should, I than ran
mythfilldatabase, which ends up failing no every query. It cannot create the
tables and it cannot insert (obviously) because the tables don't exist (and
that is the error it gives).

I have MySQL 5.0.21. Is this not a good version to use? The mysql server is
definitely running. And the mythfilldatabase is definitely connecting to it
because it knows the tables don't exist. The main problem is the fact it
cannot create the tables themselves.

Checking in mysql, looking at the users table, the mythtv user has a
password, is this correct? (My root user had a password when I imported
mc.sql).

How do I get mythfilldatabase working?

Jeff
