11698	mythtv will not connect to mythconverg database	robert.peake@…		"Version: mythtv 2:2.0.26+fixes.20121118.340ubuntu1
Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit: AMD Phenom II x6 1090T

I am attempting to configure MythTV backend for use with XBMC.

Myth backend 0.26 is installed on my server with IP 192.168.0.21.  MySQL connections have been established for database mythconverg, user mythtv at host name 192.168.0.21 on port 3306 and are accessible locally and remotely [verified using MySQL Workbench].  Running the backend setup [sudo /usr/bin/mythtv-setup] and entering 192.168.0.21 for the IP, 3306 for the port, mythconverg for the database name and mythtv as the user with the password, as listed in config.xml, and proceeding to FINISH results in the error: ""MythTV could not connect to the database.  Please verify your database settings below.""

I have run sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common to no avail.  My config.xml:

<Configuration>
  <Database>
    <PingHost>1</PingHost>
    <Host>192.168.0.21</Host>
    <UserName>mythtv</UserName>
    <Password>85ctXLIf</Password>
    <DatabaseName>mythconverg</DatabaseName>
    <Port>3306</Port>
  </Database>
  <WakeOnLAN>
    <Enabled>0</Enabled>
    <SQLReconnectWaitTime>0</SQLReconnectWaitTime>
    <SQLConnectRetry>5</SQLConnectRetry>
    <Command>echo 'WOLsqlServerCommand not set'</Command>
  </WakeOnLAN>
</Configuration>

I did not get the error message before editing the IP address from the default ""localhost"" to the static IP address of the backend server.  I have not been able to find a workaround and conclude this is a bug.

Please let me know the name and location of any files you would like me to submit.
