Issues / Errors setting up MySQL install for Windows and centralized XBMC SQL Dbase - transcender - 2011-02-08 Have a Revo and iPad, would like to get shared/central SQL dbase up. Having issues w/ MySql install on windows where media storage also resides. When I follow the link/tutorial from contentwhores.com or lifehacker.com http://www.contentwhores.com/wordpress/?page_id=432 http://lifehacker.com/5634515/how-to-synchronize-your-xbmc-media-center-across-every-room-in-the-house?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+lifehacker%2Ffull+%28Lifehacker%29&utm_content=Google+Feedfetcher They gloss over the SQL install which is where my issue is. During default install, the checkbox is checked to change the root pwrd of dbase. If i try to change / put a pwrd it fails, if blank it fails. If i uncheck the box the install completes. I can then connect to the dbase as a blank username, but any user such as 'root' fails. The blank user has no rights so i cant create an 'xbmc' user or anything. Uncertain issues, i purged the \mysql folder during the uninstall/reinstall attempts. I did have xampp installed a long time in efforts to get one of the crude early iphone 'remotes' working but it was flaky and i gave up and uninstalled it. I'm obviously unfamiliar w/ SQL and such appreciate the patience and any insights. got installed - transcender - 2011-02-08 but can not get xmbc clients to connect, dbase from workbench looks good. this is in the log 23:03:20 T:3055253376 M:1428152320 ERROR: Unable to open database: xbmc_music [1042](Can't get hostname for your address) - TugboatBill - 2011-02-08 Try using the IP address instead. - transcender - 2011-02-08 I was using IPs. I found some DNS configuration in SQL even though using IPs. weird. looks like i'm up now. |
