[mythtv-users] dbhostname not set

Hello all,

After a failed harddisk I had to reinstall my backend.
Nothing lost due to all the data being on another drive, and the db running
on another machine.

Now in the past I followed these instructions :
https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Installing_MythTV_on_Fedora

I am the only one that reads this piece of comment in the
mythbackend.service file :

# Default setting assumes a system wide install. Otherwise it should be set
to
# the folder containing the .mythtv subfolder containing the config.xml file

# That the setting should be  (this does not work!!!!!):
Environment=MYTHCONFDIR=/home/mythtv

# But that this is the one that works:
Environment=MYTHCONFDIR=/home/mythtv/.mythtv

Very frustrating waste of time.

At least it works now :-)
Rob
