Do you have an environment variable in your shell called HGDB_CONF
which is the value "/root/.hg.conf" ?

The value of your home directory that hgsql uses comes from
the HOME environment variable in your shell.  Try this:
$ echo $HOME

To see if that says /home/myname or /root

You can use HGDB_CONF to point to a specific hg.conf file,
but you should not need to do this if HOME is correct.
