Hey Guys,

I somehow can't get Kodi to create a Database in Mysql.

I am running
Ubuntu 16.04 x64
Kodi 17 B3,
mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.0.27-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.2

i did check the credentials and wether or not i could create a db successfully
(mysql -u kodi -h 127.0.0.1 -p) -> "Password: kodi" -> create database wow;
I also connected without -h and with the device's local ip instead of the localhost.

Since i'm running 16.04, i did follow the Autostart Guide on the Kodi wiki, which said if you need mysql include

Code:

if you need the MySQL DB backend, use this block instead of the previous
After = systemd-user-sessions.service network.target sound.target mysql.service
Wants = mysql.service

That's why i believe Mysql is already up and running when kodi tries to work its magic.

Code:
