Thxs for your reply. I believe I set it up OK. I will read the pointer!
What I did is

#mysql_install_db --user=mysql

     	To initialize the grant tables

# mysqld_safe --user=mysql &

	to start the server

# mysql < /home/tdec/multimedia/mythtv-0.16/database/mc.sql


If I run mysql status

amd64:/etc/rc.d # ./mysql status
Checking for service MySQL:        running

On the other hand when within the mythfront end I open /Manage 
Recording/Schedule Recording/and Program finder or Program Guide all the 
fields are populated with the program data. In summary everything seems 
to be working well.

My question is why when I close both the backend and frontend and I run

$ mythfilldatabase

I got those error. Of course before I do it I have the mysql server 
running. Is this command correct to refresh the data base?
