It was a fresh package installation, I verified that it is installed and
running, and when I tried to reconfigure I got this back...


 * Starting MySQL database server mysqld                                 [
> OK ]
>  * Checking for corrupt, not cleanly closed and upgrade needing tables.
> Failed to connect to database: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'
> (using password: YES) at -e line 5, <> line 1.
> Failed to create database (incorrect admin username/password?)
> It's also possible that mysql-server wasn't running.  After install
> is completed, you will need to make sure mysql-server is running
> and that you supplied correct information. Try:
> sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database
