Was it working before you rebooted?
Is your backend running?
sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop
sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start
will restart it.
Is your mysql running?
sudo /etc/init.d/mysqld stop
sudo /etc/init.d/mysqld start
will restart it.

Are your backend and frontend on the same machine? If not, the 127.0.0.1 address is not valid.

Hi

1. Frontend and Backend are on the same pc

2. mysql and mythbackend are running

3. if i chance the path for recordings to /var/lib/mythtv/recordings (orginal path) the frontend can connect to backend oO

Then that means wherever your recordings are, the permissions aren't appropriate.

the folder must be owned by the username mythtv so that the backend can write to it
