[mythtv-users] Back End Issues

[Eric Broszeit]

I am running Ubuntu and followed the guidelines set here.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/

I am running the back end and front end from the same PC.

The mythtv-setup program seems to have connected just fine. After flushing
the privileges on the DB it stopped telling me that it would not connect,
and I was able to go through the rest of the set up program.

I tried to restart the back end and I got this.

eric at eric-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart
Password:
Restarting MythTV server: mythbackendNo /usr/bin/mythbackend found running;
none killed.
.
Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the
authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based
authentication failed
.

Oddly enough, if I just try to start it, it tells me that it is running.

eric at eric-desktop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start
mythbackend already running, use restart instead.

When I run the front end, it tells me that it cannot connect to the back
end.

I changed the IP set up from 127.0.0.1 to localhost to its actual IP
address. No luck.

Here is a little of my back end log file.

Notice the pattern?

When running my front end, I see this...

2007-02-11 20:05:52.739 New DB connection, total: 2
2007-02-11 20:05:52.753 Connected to database 'mythconverg' at host:

                        You probably should modify the Master Server
                        settings in the setup program and set the
                        proper IP address.

                        proper IP address.
Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks.
