This 'gotcha' got me too. I run it as user 'mythtv', and should have
been editing /home/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt (in my case), which caused
my init.d script to fail at startup, but work for root (after
startup).

(I was changing DBHostName in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt or
/root/mythtv/mysql.txt instead .. oops)

google fodder:

/etc/init.d/mythtv
init.d
startup
boot
