I'm 98% sure that I answered all the questions during installation. I'm not sure was the MySQL installed before or was this the first time (asking db root passwd while installing means that it was?). Anyway, MySQL was not running after installation.
When it asked root password I gave something which has numbers, letters (including capitals) and % sign. -- mythtv-setup: unable to connect to database https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/243504 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
