<pre>>> this morning all of a sudden it says I can't connect to the database mythconverg.<br>>>mythtv is running and I even tried restarting it. any suggestions? I have a master <br>>>backend/frontend. I run 20.2 with ubuntu feisty. the only upgraded i've done from<br>>> yesterday and today were langauges packs because the update-notifier informed me <br>>>of them. any help would be appreciated.<br>>><br>>At a command line type ps ax|grep mysql to see if mysql is running.<br>>If it isn't, do a /etc/init.d/mysql start<br>>If it is running, I sometimes have to re-do permissions on Mysql. go<br>>to /usr/share/mythtv/sql and do a mysql mythconverg <mc.sql<br>>Norm<br>Norm,<br>That was it, I noticed that mysql wasn't running a little bit after I sent the<br>message out. What I find weird is that the mythtv-backend start script within<br>etc/init.d/ in Ubuntu wouldn't check to make sure mysql is running before firing up<br>mythtv-backend. Even if I did a restart, shouldn't it error out and tell me that<br>mysql isn't running???? Anyway, thanks for responding.<br></pre></body>
