Still no luck. I stopped the MythTV back end, removed mythtv and mythtv-database with, "sudo apt-get --purge remove mythtv-database", and got:
Removing mythtv ... Removing mythtv-database ... Purging configuration files for mythtv-database ... I then typed: "sudo apt-get install mythtv-database" and got: Setting up mythtv-database (0.20-svn20070122-0.0ubuntu6) ... Failed to connect to database: Access denied for user 'root'@'192.168.1.101' (using password: NO) at -e line 5, <> line 1. Failed to create database (incorrect admin username/password?) It's also possible that mysql-server wasn't running. After install is completed, you will need to make sure mysql-server is running and that you supplied correct information. Try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database cp: cannot create regular file `/var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/mythtv-reconfigure-required': No such file or directory dpkg: error processing mythtv-database (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: mythtv-database E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I then tried reconfiguring, and got nowhere. -- mythtv-database configuration cannot connect to MySQL database https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/109950 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
