Are you sure you didn't do a dsitribution update to 9.10? If you did that on
any one of your systems your database will have been upgraded to myth0.22
the first time you started myth on that system.

I can't remember the command to tell you the ubuntu release you're now on...
google it and run it on all your myth systems to see if anyone of them
inadvertently upgraded to 9.10. Aldo check myth versions on all of them to
make sure they are not 0.22.

Please excuse brevity and mistakes, this email was composed on a mobile
phone.

Thanks and regards,

Sorry if this has been asked before but my mythtv was working fine I did

complains of the following.

2009-12-16 18:24:12.790 The schema version of your existing database is
newer than this version of MythTV unders
tands. Please ensure that you have selected the proper database server
or upgrade this and all other frontends a
nd backends to the same MythTV version and revision.

This happens every time I start the back-end.
I have had a quick look at the database tables and the info seems to be
present in mythconverg but nothing starts they all complain about the
same thing.
I was in the middle of moving the system to a different computer but it
run OK after the hardware update. The only point it stopped was after
the Ubuntu update.
I am now sorry I didn't look to see what was updated :-(
I looked at utf-8 problem but everything is set to latin-1 except the
database so I'm not sure if this is it or not.
I am running version 0.21.0+fixes16838-0ubuntu3.1(hardy-updates)

I hope some one can help many thanks
