[mythtv-users] mythmusic problem

I'm having problems with mythmusic.  I searched the archive, and I see other
people have had this exact problem in the past, but I can't seem to fix it
on my machine using the suggestions.  What I see is:

metadata.o: Your database is out of whack. This is not good.
playlist.o: Hey! I can't load playlists if you don't give me a hostname!

In the frontend's terminal window.

 

First, the playlist.o error.  I'm not sure how myth is grabbing the
machine's hostname.  If I type "hostname" I get:

obergrim

 

The contents of /etc/hostname is the same.  The contents of /etc/hosts is:

127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost 
192.168.1.100          obergrim        obergrim

And the IP is correct.

 

As for the database being out of whack, I went as far as dumping the DB, and
starting from scratch using CVS.  After the clear & recreate, I now have
musicmetadata which is empty, and musicplaylist which has 4 rows.  (excuse
me if I have the table names wrong, doing this from memory)  Musicplaylist
appears to have two rows with "NULL" hostname and empty songlist, and two
rows with "obergrim" hostname and empty songlist.

 

I'm running Red Hat 9. 

 

Thanks for any help!
