Pascal,
For RH 8, it is a good idea to _not_ use the root user to connect to the
database. RH security settings will cause some problems, and I bet
that's what you are seeing here.
NOTE: I had already created a database called 'opencms' by hand (e.g.
CREATE DATABASE opencms)
What I did was create a new user called opencms:
# useradd opencms
Then I logged into MySQL and granted that user permissions to the
opencms database:
# mysql -u root mysql
...
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO opencms at localhost IDENTIFIED BY
'myPassword' WITH GRANT OPTION;
...
mysql> \q
Then I tested that MySQL account:
# mysql -u opencms -p opencms
...
mysql>\q
Then I went back and re-ran the http://localhost:8080/opencms/ocsetup
This time, I set user (for both creating and using) to 'opencms' and set
the password to 'myPassword'.
Hope that helps.
Matt
