Hi all, Back again with a question.
I have a master backend with two pvr-250s, which doubles as a workroom frontend. All is working on that. I've got 3 frontend only machines that work fine with every feature. I also have two mediamvp's running mvpmc. They work great too. Using .18.1 from atrpms. I went to add a non-master backend/frontend and followed this: http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-9.html#nonmaster_backend I must have done something close to right, because mythweb can see it (sort of). Clicking on "Backend Status" I get: Encoder status: Encoder 1 is local on mythtvmbe and is not recording. Encoder 2 is local on mythtvmbe and is not recording. Encoder 3 is remote on mythtvbe1 (currently not connected). mythtvbe1 is the machine where I'm trying to get the non-master running. When I try to start up mythbackend, I get this in my log: 2005-06-21 10:44:46.453 Failed to init MythContext, exiting. 2005-06-22 09:46:54.686 New DB connection, total: 1 2005-06-22 09:46:54.691 Unable to connect to database! 2005-06-22 09:46:54.693 Driver error was [1/2002]: QMYSQL3: Unable to connect Database error was: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) 2005-06-22 09:46:54.695 Failed to init MythContext, exiting. I don't have mysql running on the non-master, so there's no mysql.sock to connect to. I can run the frontend on the machine ok. What do I need to do to the mythbackend startup scripts to tell it to connect to a remote mysql installation for mythtv? Paul
