Mythbackend dead but PID file exists

Hey guys,
I am just wondering, has anyone else seen this message with
mythbackend in the services menu. It is failing on startup, however I can
start it with /sbin/service mythbackend start

I would like to have it actually start on boot instead of failing.
Thanks
Jon

Double-check the ordering of your init scripts. If mysql isn't already started
when mythbackend tries to start, you'll get that behavior.

It ended up being simply a problem with my /mnt/store directory . Must
make sure that it is writable by the mythtv user.
chmod -R mythtv:mythtv /mnt/store

Double-check the ordering of your init scripts. If mysql isn't already

I think you mean:
chown -R mythtv:mythtv /mnt/store
