The mysql.txt file. If you do a gossamer-threads search on this, you
will probably find it.

The problem is that your frontend cannot find the mysql.txt file, which
tells it the information it needs to connect and log in to the database.

Since it has never been 100% clear to me all the places it might look
for this file, I've got it in ~mythtv (assuming you are running your
frontend as user "mythtv"), ~mythtv/.mythtv, /, /.mythtv, ~root, and
~root/.mythtv
