Cannot connect to database during install

StarkRavingCalm · December 31, 2007, 7:39pm

Hello everyone, I have installed previous versions of Jive\Wildfire so not sure what I am missing.

This is on a RHEL5.1 server. I have installed MySql and downloaded Openfire 3.43-1. Apache and Mysqld are both started.

I created my database (mysqladmin create datbasename) and installed Openfire. When I set thru the Setup page, I cannot connect to the database.

I am using root as the account to connect (don’t want to get sidetracked with ‘why not to use root’ but I do want to fix it later)

Can someone help me get this setup?

Here is the error log:

cat error.log
