First, I believe MythTV still required QT3. The QT package is slotted, |
| 28 |
so you should be able to have both 3 and 4 installed. If you upgraded |
| 29 |
MySQL on the AMD64 box, you may want to rebuild QT3 with something like |
| 30 |
emerge -av =dev-libs/qt3* |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
If that doesn't fix it, it sounds like it could be a password encryption |
| 33 |
problem. I had a similar problem when I tried using a RHEL box as a |
| 34 |
front end. The RHEL distribution only supported MySQL 4.0.x and my back |
| 35 |
end DB is MySQL 5.x. I could connect fine from the command line, but the |
| 36 |
front end could not. After a bit of research I determined it was a |
| 37 |
password encryption problem. I decided the easiest solution for me was to |
| 38 |
create a second account for the mythconverg DB and encrypt the password |
| 39 |
using the old_password function. You can also upgrade the client to 5.x. |
| 40 |
If it's already at 5.x you may need to re-encrypt the password for the |
| 41 |
account. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
You may want to look at |
| 44 |
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/old-client.html |
| 45 |
and try some of the suggestions. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
Hope this helps. |
