Ok I ran mythtv-setup from the command line and it does the same thing 
as backend setup does so it is the same thing.

This does not fix the problem though.

I get a "unable to  connect to master backend" message in the mythtv 
startup status screen.

If I access the settings and change the port from 3306 to 6543 the 
message changes to 'waiting for database to start" and then "Database 
failed to start"

The message below is what I get when running mythfilldatabase

017-09-26 15:30:19.786541 E  MythSocket(7f79ac004740:-1): Failed to 
connect to (127.0.0.1:6543) Connection refused
2017-09-26 15:30:19.786628 E  Connection to master server timed out.
             Either the server is down or the master server settings
             in mythtv-settings does not contain the proper IP address
