When trying to run mythbackend I get the following error:<br><br>2006-02-13 12:47:31.049 Using runtime prefix = /usr/local<br>2006-02-13 12:47:31.070 New DB connection, total: 1<br>2006-02-13 12:47:31.073 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host:

<br><br>Running mythtv-setup doesn't help either, I get a bunch of errors about<br>'mythconverg.settings' not existing, I assume since the database isn't<br>properly upgraded. Does anyone have any ideas? I'd really like to keep my
<br>old data if at all possible. Thanks.<br><br>Neil</blockquote><div><br><br>I'd suggest restoring your database from the backup you made according to 1.3 of the docs:</div></div><a href="http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-1.html#ss1.3">
