What/where is the config file?

Post #1 of 4 (2919 views)

Today I upgraded to 0.19 and then ran mythtv-setup.

Unfortunately I miss-typed the database address as 192.168.10.37 when it
should have been 192.168.10.27

Now I cannot connect to the database and cannot even run mythtv-setup

Can anyone tell me which file to change to get it correct?

~/.mythtv/mysql.txt is the file you are looking for. Or maybe
/root/.mythtv/mysql.txt. I've got both on my machine.

I've found it useful to put mysql.txt, lircrc and lircd.conf all into /etc
and then put symlinks from all the directories that seem to require them
to these master copies. Saves a lot of hassle when you edit one of them,
you know that all references get changed instead of trying to hunt down
the one thats used as opposed to the one you just changed :-)
