[mythtv-users] 0.26 upgrade "no database selected"

[Martin Moores]

Hi all,

Afraid my update to 0.26 did not go so well:

user at MYTHTV1:~$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done

Setting up mythtv-database
(2:0.26.0~master.20121003.6a7e351-0ubuntu0mythbuntu2) ...
*ERROR 1046 (3D000) at line 22: No database selected*
dpkg: error processing mythtv-database (--configure):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mythtv:
 mythtv depends on mythtv-database; however:
  Package mythtv-database is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing mythtv (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
No apport report written because the error message indicates it's a
follow-up error from a previous failure.

Errors were encountered while processing:
 mythtv-database
 mythtv
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


So, looking around, there are a number of threads on this.  Most suggest
that the username/password may be wrong in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt and
therefore it cannot connect to the database.

I have reset the passwords for mythtv@% and mythtv at local in phpmyadmin, to
match those in mysql.txt, but to no avail.

Has anyone else had issues on this?  This hasn't happened before on version
upgrades.

Cheers!

Martin
