[mythtv-users] my bad

[Daryl McDonald]

Trying to get the android frontend to connect to the database I did this:

mysql -u root -p mysql
mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to 'mythtv'@'%' identified by 'passwd';
mysql> flush privileges;
mysql> exit;

and now I can't connect to the BE on the combined box (16.04/0.28) and
trying to restore a database results in this:

trieli at mythtv:~$ mythconverg_restore.pl --drop_database
--create_database --filename mythconverg-1344-20170919104850.sql.gz
--verbose

Configuring environment:
  -    username: trieli
  -        HOME: /home/trieli
  - MYTHCONFDIR: /home/trieli/.mythtv

Parsing configuration files:
  - checking: /home/trieli/.mythtv/config.xml

Checking database.

Preparing initial database.

Unable to connect to database.
           database: mythconverg
               host: localhost
           username: mythtv
           password: 7HVMRTtn

Please check your configuration files to verify the database connection
information is correct.  The files that are used to retrieve connection
information are prefixed with "parsing" in the "Parsing configuration files"
section of the --verbose output.

Also note that any [client] or [mysql] password specified in the MySQL options
file (/etc/my.cnf or /etc/mysql/my.cnf or ~/.my.cnf) will take precedence over
the password specified in the MythTV configuration files.

ERROR: Unable to connect to database.

Please help! thanks in advance Daryl
