I have setup my Kodi (17.6) device to use MySQL. On the backend I'm running MariaDB 10.
Created a Kodi user and gave full access from anywhere.
Creating my first video source on Kodi is working and I see the database gets created on the backend side.
Everything is fine untill I reboot the Kodi device. The video source cannot read anything any more.

What could be the issue?

What kind of device is that, and which OS is it running?

Mecool M8s Pro running Libreelec.
I have been using it for the past 2 years with PlexKodiConnect but wanted to run natively now.

Did you enable the "Wait for network" option in the LibreELEC Settings Add-on?
Kodi itself can start kinda fast.

Nope I did not...
Gonna give it a try this weekend! Many thanks for pointing out.

@Klojum 

You hit the jackpot!
After setting the option "wait for network" it works a charm.

Many thanks again!

Thread marked solved.
