[mythtv-users] windows 0.23 frontend

Mon May 3 16:05:48 UTC 2010

I have had a combined BE/FE for a couple of years now and love Myth.  I 
recently moved to 0.23 and used win32-packager.pl to download and 
compile a frontend for Windows (XP Pro).

For testing, I am running Windows inside a vmware virtual machine on the 
combined BE/FE.  I am using bridged networking for the VM, so it has an 
IP address on the same local network as the BE.  I can use mysql.exe on 
the VM to access the mythconverg database on the BE machine, so I know I 
have connectivity to the BackEnd.

When I try to run mythfrontend, however, it claims to be unable to open 
the database.

It seems clear to me I am missing something simple, but I'm at a loss as 
to what...

Running the FE with verbosity set to all, I get:
