Have followed instructions at http://www.howtoforge.org/installing-otrs-on-fedora8 to a tee. Browser returns: The requested URL /otrs/installer.pl was not found on this server. During install chkconfig was not a recognized command. and 2nd mysqladmin command returned. mysqladmin: connect to server at 'gss-fp1.greatscotsolutions.ca' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)' Apache server up and running fine.
Did you log in directly as root, or did you log in as a normal user and then su to root? In the latter case, /sbin is not in your PATH, and I guess chkconfig is located in /sbin (-> /sbin/chkconfig).
Chkconfig now working. You are right. Now that I login as root chkconfig is a recognized command. Proceed to start httpd and mysqld both alright. But the mysqladmin command for -u and -h will not let me connect to mysql returning a message that says: Error 1045 (28000): Access denied for user at 'root@localhost' (using password: No)
This sounds as if you already have a MySQL password. If you don't remember it, take a look here: http://www.howtoforge.com/reset-forgotten-mysql-root-password
Bigger Issues it seems I guess I must have bigger issues because after I stop and then restart mysql into safe mode I don't see mysql starting up. This is a fresh install ol Fedora Project.
Clarification This is what I see at the prompt: [root@gss-fp1 ~]# mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables nohup: ignoring input and redirecting stderr to stdout Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql Underneath the last line is a blinking black box. I don't know if I am in mysql at this point or not.
Second Shell I have been using Xkonsole & tty# to problem solve this issue and to be honest with you I am inexperienced with mysql programming so I am not equipped to verify if I am truly logged in or not. I do get to a mysql prompt through secondary shell and even appear to be logged into shell with no password but update command won't work.
