Need MYSQL authentication details

Added by Girish Thavai over 7 years ago

Hi,
Recently installed Openproject 7.23 in Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit VM on Windows 7 32-bit host.
I followed the packaged installation method (using apt-get install openproject).

Now in the Ubuntu terminal I could set the password for root.

While installation of OpenProject, I am not sure what password I entered when it asked for MySQL password.

However when I tried connecting to the openproject database on Ubuntu commandline (mysql -p -u root openproject) it says access denied. Also tried with the MySQL Workbench from Windows machine by giving the IP that is assigned to Ubuntu VM. didnt worked either.

So need your help in getting all the authentication details for users ‘root’ and ‘openproject’ of mysql.

Also, if I change the Ubuntu user ‘openproject’ password through (passwd openproject) do I need to reconfigure the OpenProject again?
