[mythtv-users] How to start MythTV Backend?

[Forum]

Hi,

I've installed MythTV on Linux Mint and MythTV Frontend says "Could not 
connect to the master backend server....". I've then checked MythTV 
Backend Status with "sudo status mythtv-backend" and got:
mythtv-backend stop/waiting.

I started MythTV backend with "sudo start mythtv-backend":
"mythtv-backend start/running, process 5703."
But just immediately after that "sudo status mythtv-backend" is still
mythtv-backend stop/waiting.

Why is it not possible to start mythtv-backend?
