Hello,

default username and password for auth module is serro:47serro11, if you are able to login as ser:heslo, then username and password can be changed.

If you change your password in mysql, you must change it for ser@localhost For example: grant ALL on ser.* to ser@localhost identified by 'klaus';

If you use something like grant ALL on ser.* to ser identified by 'klaus'; then the server will be unable to login to the database.

Try also the following: mysql -h localhost -u ser -p ser This will prompt for password, if you are unable to login with your password, ser will be unable to login as well (probably because you changed password for ser and not for ser@localhost)

regards, Jan.

Hello!

I have sucessfully installed the ser server (0.8.10 from rpms) with an mysql database. When I use the standard password for the user "ser" everything works fine. But if I change the password from "heslo" to a new one, for example "klaus" instead of "heslo" (of course in the mysql-database und in the config file) the ser server can not start up.

Following are some different configurations and my suggestions what could be the problem.

ser.cfg: modparam("auth", "db_url", "sql://ser:heslo@localhost/ser") mySQL-root-password: XXXXX mySQL-ser-password: heslo ---> works fine

ser.cfg: modparam("auth", "db_url", "sql://ser:klaus@localhost/ser") mySQL-root-password: XXXXX mySQL-ser-password: klaus ---> doesn't work: connect_db(): Access denied for user: 'ser@localhost' (Using password: YES) should work, so I tried another user

ser.cfg: modparam("auth", "db_url", "sql://root:XXXXX@localhost/ser") mySQL-root-password: XXXXX mySQL-ser-password: heslo ---> works fine

ser.cfg: modparam("auth", "db_url", "sql://root:XXXXX@localhost/ser") mySQL-root-password: XXXXX mySQL-ser-password: klaus ---> doesn't work: connect_db(): Access denied for user: 'ser@localhost' (Using password: YES) very strange, because I told ser to connect as root. Is ser using the default user/password instead of the configured one?

ser.cfg: modparam("auth", "db_url", "sql://root:YYYYY@localhost/ser") mySQL-root-password: XXXXX mySQL-ser-password: heslo ---> doesn't work: connect_db(): Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES) of course it doesn't work, wrong password. So ser cares about the settings in ser.cfg

So my suggestion is that ser connects several times to the database whereas one time it uses the configured user/password and another time it uses the default user/password - maybe a bug in the auth module?

Or does somebody of you changed the password successfuly?

It would be nice if you can help me.

Thanks, Klaus
