I need some help restoring OTRS.  I have an old config that I would like to put on a test server and then upgrade.  I’m not sure what version of OTRS it was running.  1) how do I find this out 2) when I use the restore script, I come up with these errors:

 

[root@helpdesk ~]# /opt/otrs/scripts/restore.pl -b /home/andrew.meyer/ -d /opt/otrs/

Restore /home/andrew.meyer//Config.tar.gz ...

DBI connect('database=otrs;host=localhost;','otrs',...) failed: Access denied for user 'otrs'@'localhost' (using password: YE

.pm line 256

Traceback (14115):

create MySQL

[root@helpdesk ~]#

 

What am I doing wrong?  I’ve tried changing the mysql options for the user to allow ALL permissions, but it doesn’t like that.

 

Thank you,

Andrew Meyer.
