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?
Edit your mysql.txt file (or whatever that filename is, I'm not at my
machine right now) to point to the right database
