Yes it was. 

Debian mysqld policy is to not listen on port 3306 (even though
port was set in /etc/mysql/my.cnf). I had to comment out
" skip-networking" in the config file to make mysql listen on
both sockets and an TCP/IP port. 

Now the ocsetup works like a charm. I really look forward to
evaluating OpenCMS solution. Time to start digging into user 
docs now... =)

Tanks!
