hey Lars

 

 check this config.pm file of mine

# ---------------------------------------------------- #
    # database settings                                    #
    # ---------------------------------------------------- #
    # DatabaseHost
    # (The database host.)
    $Self->{'DatabaseHost'} = 'localhost';
    # Database
    # (The database name.)
    $Self->{'Database'} = 'otrs';
    # DatabaseUser
    # (The database user.)
    $Self->{'DatabaseUser'} = 'otrs';
    # DatabasePw
    # (The password of database user. You also can use bin/CryptPassword.pl
    # for crypted passwords.)
    $Self->{'DatabasePw'} = 'otrs';
    # DatabaseDSN
    # (The database DSN for MySQL ==> more: "man DBD::mysql")
    $Self->{DatabaseDSN} = "DBI:mysql:database=$Self->{Database};host=$Self->{DatabaseHost};";

 

The only thing i didnt mention is during the time of instation i have not set a password for root user.
IS this could be a reason if so how can i overcome it.

 

thanks

Shrikant.
