I am running Ubuntu and followed the guidelines set here. <a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/</a><br clear="all"><br>I am running the back end and front end from the same PC.
<br><br>The mythtv-setup program seems to have connected just fine. After flushing the privileges on the DB it stopped telling me that it would not connect, and I was able to go through the rest of the set up program.<br>
<br>I tried to restart the back end and I got this.<br><br>eric@eric-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart<br>Password:<br>Restarting MythTV server: mythbackendNo /usr/bin/mythbackend found running; none killed.
<br>.<br>Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed<br>.<br><br>Oddly enough, if I just try to start it, it tells me that it is running.
<br><br>eric@eric-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start<br>mythbackend already running, use restart instead.<br><br>When I run the front end, it tells me that it cannot connect to the back end.<br><br>I changed the IP set up from
<a href="http://127.0.0.1">127.0.0.1</a> to localhost to its actual IP address. No luck.<br><br>Here is a little of my back end log file.<br><br><br>QSqlQuery::exec: database not open<br>QSqlQuery::exec: database not open
