No need to guess what config.xml is in play. Just look at the log output.
A line containing this will give you the answer:

     ... Using configuration directory = /home/mythtv/.mythtv

That's likely your case and in the above output is wrong. Change
the Host IP address to localhost, as mentioned before.

Important, run: mythtv-setup. Don't use --loglevel err because that
masks too much.

/home/barry/.mythtv/config.xml and /home/mythtv/.mythtv/config.xml
should be symbolic links to /etc/mythtv/config.xml. You can check
that with:

     ls -ld /etc/mythtv/config.xml /home/{mythtv,barry}/.mythtv/config.xml

Be sure to read this: https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Config.xml#Troubleshooting
