I am having problems getting Mythweather to work - I am in Canada.

Unfortunately when I first installed KM R5E50 I opted to use my Canadian postal address. I say 'unfortunately as I read in the following post that the workaround is to select a US zip code during the initial install then when it is up go into settings and change it later to my Canadian one. (Now all that happens when I try to run Mythweather is that it says it can’t retrieve the data and asks me if I want to try again with longer timeout)

The other way (according to the thread below) is to select my nearest city from a list - presumably available to me during the initial install.

Since I messed up and didn't do either of these steps is there any way of fixing this up without a complete reinstall?

Hi Bruce,

I tried following the instructions from that link you pointed me to but I keep getting a syntax error:

root@mythtv:~# mysql
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 18 to server version: 5.0.27-Debian_1-log

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql> mythconverge
-> select * from settings where value = 'locale';
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'mythconverge
select * from settings where value = 'locale'' at line 1

any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Kevin

It's not just mythconverge on its own, it's:
Then it's the rest of the instructions.
