Hmmm, would have expected the locate or the ls ... to find more than one mythbackend.<br>
<br>
If you've already solved this, kindly ignore the rest.<br>
<br>
So, when the backend is started in *buntu, the command line comes from<br>
/etc/init/mythtv-backend.conf and the stock line looks like this:<br>
<br>
/usr/bin/mythbackend --syslog local7 --user mythtv<br>
<br>
To duplicate that from the command line, you would run:<br>
<br>
sudo /usr/bin/mythbackend --syslog local7 --user mythtv<br>
<br>
Is that what you're typing? (I'm asking because the initial post in this thread<br>
only said: mythbackend.)<br>
<br>
What does: file /usr/bin/mythbackend return (executable or shell script?)<br>
<br>
Does: locate -b '\mythbackend.real' '\mythbackend.sh' find any duplicate files?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

</div></div></blockquote></div><br><div>Thanks for the help - in the end I punted and removed mythbuntu from ubuntu and then re-installed. I then had an issue with it setting the pw differently in home/myth from home/<myid> with the file in <myid> having the proper mysql pw and because of this I could start the backend from command line but not as a service. Maybe that was part of the initial issue.... I copied the config.xml and all was well. </div>
