I've upgraded from 0.25 to 0.27, it's mostly working, but after recent
updates, the upstart job no longer connects to the backend.

        Cannot login to database
        
        Would you like to configure the database connection now? [no]  
        [console is not interactive, using default 'no']
        2013-10-04 12:06:37.021905 E  Unable to connect to database!
        2013-10-04 12:06:37.021926 E  Driver error was [1/2003]:

        Database error was:

I can start the backend from the command-line using the -d switch.  I
can also login to the backend using the commandline "mysql -u mythtv -h
192.168.1.? -p mythconverg.

I can probably workaround this via rc.local, but it would be nice to
have the upstart job working as advertised. BTW, I am using the version
of /etc/init/mythtv-backend.conf from the mythtv wiki.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
