Sql password/Makefile

Hi,

I’ve copied the rt database and rt directories to a new machine (redhat
7), and am trying to upgrade rather than install fresh. One question,
I’m getting mysql errors in the apache log… I just realized that of
course, I don’t have a user “rt” in the mysql database. Ok, so I can
create a user “rt” in mysql, but do I have to set its password to the
same password specified in the Makefile (RT_MYSQL_PASS)?

Thanks,
-Neil

You’ll want to run the last several steps of “make database” from RT’s
makefile by hand.

autoconf is your friend until it mysteriously stops working, at which
point it is a snarling wolverine attached to your genitals by its teeth
(that said, it’s better than most of the alternatives) – Nathan Mehl

Argh, database is already created though… I’m trying a fresh install
instead. However, DBADMIN_MYSQL_PASS_STRING is getting strung into the
mysql command appended to the -p when I try “make install”:

make: [database] Error 127 (ignored)
/usr/bin/mysql -h localhost -u root -pMyRootPassword rt < etc/schema

Why isn’t a spaced character being inserted in between -p and
MyRootPassword?

Thanks for your help.
