My backend host recently failed badly enough that I was not
able
<br>
to salvage anything so I replaced the hardware and installed
a new
<br>
Ubuntu 20.04 and a new v31 mythtv-backend-master with xmltv.
<br>
<br>
I then upgraded a remote frontend (Ubuntu 18.04) from MythTV
30 to
<br>
31 but that frontend will not connect to the database.
<br>
<br>
I've checked and rechecked the frontend setup screen and
<br>
everything is correct. The config.xml files for both look
like
<br>
they should work. I've tried the backend config with
</host> =
<br>
localhost and = 192.168.0.222 (the backend machine IP). The
<br>
frontend config host is 192.168.0.222.
<br>
<br>
I know the ip addresses are good. I can load
192.168.0.222:6544
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://192.168.0.222:6544"><http://192.168.0.222:6544></a> into the address line of
the Firefox
<br>
on the frontend machine and it finds the database
immediately.
<br>
<br>
I'm no doubt missing something obvious but I can't find it.
It
<br>
seems like I have worn out 2 search engines trying.
<br>
<br>
Suggestions?
<br>

Have you tried deleting the .mythtv/config.xml file on the FE?
Then do a search if the frontend does find it automatically

Have you made sure that your mysql is setup to connect over
ethernet?
<br>
<br>
Specifically have you commented out the line that looks like this
(mine is debian buster and not xubuntu)
<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf:#
bind-address = 127.0.0.1
<br>

<br>
Also, start up frontend on your backend machine and see if you can
connect after setup to IP of the backend machine (instead of
localhost)
