Impossible-To-Install Script

Post by unclefecker »

What exactly are:

Admin Username (to create Database)
Admin Password (to create Database)

Why is it that whatever I enter (or leave blank) I always get an error message:

BAD
Does administrative user have access to the database? ( Access denied for user 'root'@'10.1.21.2' (using password: YES) )

You need to create a user account on your database server that has access to create databases. Then supply the script with these user name and password to create the database and create the appropriate tables in it.

Currently, my company is using mantis V0.19 with MySQL, and i responsible to migrate it to V1.07.
As I remember, we only set one root user account without password when first install MySQL. And this also what I see after retrieve from mysql database.
From the install/upgrade page, a pink message shows possible problem with a blank password if I leave the password for database empty. And then no matther what I enter for the admin username/password to create database, I get a red BAD erroe message .
Actually, I am not familiar with MySQL, and my boss who set up the whole system just quited.
What should I do now?
