Problem Not Seeing the database
Hi everyone,

I have install MythTV 0.8 and I am getting the following error when I
try and run the setup program.

Unable to open database:
Driver error was:
QMYSQL3: Unable open database ''
Database error Was:
No Database Selected

I can get to the database by using the mysql command at the shell.

I have verified that the /usr/local/share/mythtv/mysql.txt file contains
the correct information.

Did I miss some step during the initial installation?

Thanks in advance for you help.

Joe

Joe,

You need to install the qt-mysql package. For Redhat, I installed the
RPM called qt-MySQL-3.1.1-6.i386.rpm and it solved that problem.

James:

Yes mysql is running. I can get to it by using the mysql command at
shell prompt. If id do a ps -ef | grep mysql I see the process running.

Re: Problem Not Seeing the database [ In reply to ]
Did you import the proper table schemas into mysql?

ie., do you _have_ a mythconverg database, and did you do the

mysql ... < /usr/local/share/mythtv/database/mc.sql

command?
