Just curious, what do the following print:
sudo ls -ld /var/lib/mysql/mythconverg/settings.MYD
sudo ls -ld /var/lib/mysql/mysql/user.MYD
If the either or both of the above exist, continue on, otherwise
go no further in this email.
Also, there's a maintenance password [THAT YOU SHOULD NEVER
CHANGE!] that should allow you to login like this:
sudo mysql --defaults-extra-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf
sudo is required in this case because the file above isn't readable
by anyone other than root:root.
*If* that works, then type these 2 commands:
SELECT * FROM mythconverg.settings WHERE value = 'DBSchemaver';
quit
Please put the output from the SELECT here.
