That certainly fixed it! Sorry for the nooB question. Thanks guys!!
I had a similar problem, but renaming also seemed to affect something
in the mysql configuration. In other words, I had set everything up
and then decided that I didn't like the host name. Changing it seemed
to break everything. Does this sound like it should happen?
Not if you do it correctly...
22.15 Changing your hostname
http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html#ss22.15
In the OP's case, either his system was set up to use localhost (i.e. in
which case changing the hostname wouldn't affect MythTV) or he hadn't
configured MythTV before the change.
