  • Centos 5.3 & OX6 "access denied"

    Must be missing something very obvious:

    Logon as a general user not one of oxadminmaster or oxadmin

    Mysql is running
    /opt/open-xchange/sbin/ is in PATH

    /opt/open-xchange/sbin/initconfigdb --configdb-pass=db_password -a
    and I get an error of:

    need to be root in order to setup the system

    if I run
    sudo bash /opt/open-xchange/sbin/initconfigdb -a --configdb-pass=db_password

    I get an error of
    initializing configdb from scratch...ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) ERROR

    so what have I missed please.
    TIA

    Hi,

    those two errors are not related, one refers to the root user of the operating system, the other to the root user of the mysql database. Indeed you need to be "root" at the OS to execute those scripts. The error messages tells you that MySQL user "root" is not allowed to connect to mysql on localhost without a password. To execute this script, please drop the password for user root, you can enable it again afterwards.
