</blockquote></div><br>Where is that mysql.txt file located? I'm using CentOS 5.2 on one of my myth setups and Fedora 8 on the other. I've noticed on both of them that there need to be multiple mysql.txt files in various places. What I did was create the mysql.txt file in ~/.mythtv and then made symlinks from there to all of the other places where mysql.txt needs to exist.<br>
<br>Here's all the locations of mysql.txt on my CentOS 5.2 backend:<br><br>/root/.mythtv/mysql.txt<br>/usr/.mythtv/mysql.txt<br>/home/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt<br>/home/mythtv/mysql.txt<br>/var/lib/mythtv/mysql.txt<br>
/.mythtv/mysql.txt<br><br>I would strongly recommend that you check to make sure you have a mysql.txt file wherever the system is looking when starting the backend via init scripts. On many systems no environment exists when init scripts are run so it will never find the mysql.txt file in your tv user's home directory nor the same file in root's home dir.<br>
<br>Hope that helps,<br>Brad Benson<br><br><br>
