Password?
Any password you want, in cleartext.
As it happens, it is also done automatically by the 'mc.sql' script.
But I think that the script is wrong, because the frontend complains the database is 37 versions old, to run setup to correct it.
That script only creates the database and the userid, it does not create any tables.
Set the backend to start automatically. Well, it refuses, it fails with cryptic errors.
It just needs the timezone tables populated. There is a script for that, it is a well-documented procedure.
Yes, but it fails. It is a documented procedure but I'm not an mysql expert to know about it.
No expert knowledge required, you only need to run the script. How does it fail? If it is about the password, I have already explained that.

This is the backend trying to connect to iself (the backend listens on 6543 and 6544). Weird.
mythtvsetup does run, however. In general config it asks about "Port" and "status port". 6543 and 6544. Suppose I should leave alone.
Yup.
It asks a lot of questions I have no idea about. And I can not exit without answering "no storage group directories are defined... you must add at least one." But I have no idea where to set it up (system or home?),
It just needs a directory with some space. /var/spool/mythtv is what I use.
I have no TV card.
It should be irrelevant, but I haven't tried setting up a backend without a tv card.
And this time it has not asked at all about my country and language, it is using English and USA settings without asking, which is wrong.
So change it. It is probably what you set earlier.

I wonder if there might be a "null" capture card. Or maybe you just any card, at random. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.4°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
