Hi everyone, we're trying to install this onto a RHEL5 server and all seemed to have gone well but otrs doesn't start with the following messages. I don't see any other setup tasks involving the database but it is definitely running, I can log into it just fine. I do not know however the otrs user password for MySql. Maybe I don't even need to know it, who knows.... This looks like it would be a common problem so I thought I'd ask the list for help. Thank you!
