-sigh-
Well, it was all looking promising. I'd been able to get some tv recorded and some watched. Then, my LinHES box crashed. I've not had much time to try and trouble shoot this yet, but basically on saturday I was watching a recording. Myth started recording Dr Who and I went out for a drink with some friends.
When I sat down on sunday, myth wouldn't start. It boots ok, but it does not get past the point where it shows the message its waiting for the backend to start.
I've looked at its web page, and the backend isn't up. I have started the backend as it hasn't, but this doesn't help.
I think ip address has been changed by my router, so instead of being 192.168.0.20 on my internal network its something else. This seems be the cause.
The backend log shows this:

.
Anyhow, I tried to run Mythtv-setup and I entered the Database Configuration rather than mythtv-setup. I changed the address of the box to the local loopback 127.0.0.1 and I was able to get into myth-setup, but my tuner cards are missing and it thing mybox is now called mythconverg.
So, how do I get my box back to where it was?
Thanks
