Error in "Attempting to connect to database as admin"

Post by Exhortae »

Hi,

While trying to install mantisBT I get the following error in the installation script page http://@IP/admin/install.php:

Attempting to connect to database as admin
BAD Does administrative user have access to the database? ( Permission denied )


This is the configuration I'm using :

- OS : CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)
- PHP : PHP 7.2.12 (cli) / Zend Engine v3.2.0
- MYSQL : Amazon RDS MySQL 5.6.40 (remote MySQL instance)

I have two MySQL users :

mantisuser who can connect to the database and has all privileges
admin who is the administrator of mysql

I can connect remotely from centos on MySQL RDS. I can create a database, tables...

I tried with or without a database already created, I still get that error message. Even if I try to connect with a wrong user or password, I only get that message.

If anyone can help.

Thank you.
