I would start looking at the line above and see why
/home/mythuser/.mythtv/config.xml doesn't have the
information needed to access the backend.
This may help: https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Config.xml#Troubleshooting
And much like the ping you tried, this is a nice
independent test:
nmap -p3306,6543 --reason yourBackendAndDbHost
You expect something like this in the response:
PORT STATE SERVICE REASON
3306/tcp open mysql syn-ack
6543/tcp open mythtv syn-ack
