Problemes with Installation on an Hosteurope VPS PLESK Ubuntu 12.04

[Arexx]

For my plesk installation I must add to mysql a previliged grand user. To go throw those steps without any issues. Plesk is changing the root user to admin and you cant know the password.

Try:

1. Login into mysql

mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`

2. Generate user with privilage grant permissions

CREATE USER 'sascha'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'some_pass';

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'sascha'@'localhost'
-> WITH GRANT OPTION;

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

3. go throw the Installation steps with the new admin user

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/initconfigdb --configdb-pass=db_password -a --mysql-root-user sascha --mysql-root-passwd some_pass -i

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/oxinstaller --add-license=YOUR-OX-LICENSE-CODE \
--servername=oxserver --configdb-pass=db_password \
--master-pass=admin_master_password --network-listener-host=localhost --servermemory 5012

/etc/init.d/open-xchange restart

...go smoking...

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/registerserver -n oxserver -A oxadminmaster -P admin_master_password

I'm running out of ideas now.
Check configdb properties for the settings how to connect to configdb and change it to 127.0.0.1 or something like that.
There must be a reason why OX cannot connect to the configdb.

But it can connect for initialize the database.
I'm wondering.

hostname -f

at com.openexchange.admin.storage.mysqlStorage.OXTool MySQLStorage.existsServerName(OXToolMySQLStorage.j ava:2137)

hmm, wondering something:

What does hostname -f say?

In case it's empty please make sure that you have an entry in /etc/hosts for your actual hostname pointing to 127.0.0.1 (or 2)

So it says it cannot connect to the database.
Any more information about the database. Are the database credentials correct? Did initconfigdb work correctly? Is MySQL running correctly?

Yes. I think.
There are new databases configdb and openexchange.

Hi,
I've tried to install the OX on my VPS at Hosteurope.

I tried a few guides and I always broke on the same.

When I try:

root@mail:~# /opt/open-xchange/sbin/registerserver -n oxserver -A oxadminmaster -P admin_master_password

I always got this

server could not be registered: 
Server response:

I've tried with the default passwords and with my owns.
Always the same...

Anyone a idea?

Thanks
