MythTV has always been a hassle for me because I never use MySQL for anything else and when there are changes, I am unprepared for them.

It has happened again. The configuration requires:

$ mysql -u root -p <mc.sql> # mc.sql is not where the documentation says it is.

It then asks for a password that I have not created!

I have asked for advice onn the MythTV forum.

I mention it here because this is a beta version.

Use sudo mysql -u to get a root shell in MySQL and set the password for
the database user MythTV wants.

Some documentation.

https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_Manual:Detailed_configuration

"Enter it, and the default Myth database will be created with a
Mysql user named "mythtv" and a password of "mythtv"
"

https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Setup

Debian/Ubuntu/Mint

$ mysql -uroot -p < mc.sql

note: mc.sql is located in /usr/share/mythtv/sql or mythtv/database
(the file contains all the details for making a database,
where there is a user:pass of mythtv:mythtv)

On Debian/Ubuntu/Mint, the password is blank initially (mysql shell as root?) .
It is possible to change the root account password for
mysql (because you might not want it to remain blank like that).
It is blank so that the initial value is "known"
and you can do stuff. Such as setting the password to something
you want it to be.

You can stick a PostIt note on your tuner card, with all the
passwords for stuff written on it.

Paul

The answer, given to me on the Mythtv Forum is that for "some time" it
has been necessary when tryingb to open as MySQL root, it has been
necessary to do so with a root terminal or use sudo.

Mythtv is now working (almost) perfectly. just one small issue relating
to storage directories that I won't bore you with.

Thanks to all that contributed,

Alan

And the password is a blank string ( <cr> ) when used the first time.
That's what the docs say. The user can change the root password
as they see fit.
