Ok, I think I might have a clue now, but i'm not sure how to resolve it. In the mythbackend log, it says:<br><br>Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)<br><br>But /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock doesn't exist.<br>
<br>I'm not running mysql on my slave backend, so I don't know why it's trying to connect to the local MySQL server rather than the master backend's server. <br><br>It's a clue, but not a solution. In mythtv-setup on the Slave, I have the Master Backend IP address set to the correct address of my master backend, but it still seems to be trying to connect locally.<br>
<br>The fontend on the slave box has no problems connecting to the master backend... why does the backend have trouble?<br><br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Nov 9, 2009 at 2:24 PM, Jeff Clemens <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:teedub303@gmail.com">teedub303@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I don't see anything in the mythbackend log, or in dmesg, or any other logfiles that mentions cx18 or ivtv. As far as I can tell, everything's working, except that it isn't.. mythbackend isn't complaining about anything, but mythfrontend shows the input as unavailable.<br>

Any idea why that is? mysqld on localhost is stopped, so there's no reason it should be trying to connect locally.<br>

It seems to be working, in that it was able to scan channels and determine which ones were active and such, however when the slave backend is running, the tuner still shows up as Unavailable under system information.<br>
