After updating my system, MythTV no longer functions. The issue seems to be caused by mythbackend being unable to connect to the database due to a QMYSQL3 issue. When running mythbackend the following error occurs. 2006-10-24 21:04:39.040 Using runtime prefix = /usr 2006-10-24 21:04:39.049 Unable to read configuration file mysql.txt 2006-10-24 21:04:39.049 Trying to create a basic mysql.txt file 2006-10-24 21:04:39.049 Writing settings file /home/giga/.mythtv/mysql.txt 2006-10-24 21:04:39.102 New DB connection, total: 1 2006-10-24 21:04:39.103 Unable to connect to database! 2006-10-24 21:04:39.103 Driver error was [1/2002]: QMYSQL3: Unable to connect Database error was: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket ''/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'' (2) QSqlQuery::exec: database not open QSqlQuery::exec: database not open 2006-10-24 21:04:39.159 DB Error (KickDatabase): Query was: SELECT NULL; No error type from QSqlError? Strange... 2006-10-24 21:04:39.211 Failed to init MythContext, exiting. MythTV versions 0.19 and 0.20 seem to be affected, qt versions 3.3.6-r2 and 3.3.6-r4 seem to also be affected (qt-3.3.6-r2 and all mythtv versions were confirmed to work prior to the breakage). MySQL was upgraded around the time the issue started (version 5.0.26 to 5.0.26-r1) but the older versions have been removed from portage so a downgrade is not possible for further testing. MySQL seems to function correctly as TorrentFlux is unaffected by this issue.
