Bugzilla could not connect to the mysql?

Question

I am using C:\Bugzilla>checksetup.pl and it shows me this error message...plz tell me how i connect to mysql with bugzilla....

There was an error connecting to MySQL:

Access denied for user 'bugs'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

This might have several reasons:

• MySQL is not running.
• MySQL is running, but there is a problem either in the server configuration or the database access rights. Read the Bugzilla Guide in the doc directory. The section about database configuration should help.
• Your password for the 'bugs' user, specified in $db_pass, is incorrect, in './localconfig'.
• There is a subtle problem with Perl, DBI, or MySQL. Make sure all settings in './localconfig' are correct. If all else fails, set '$db_check' to 0.

Answer 1

You need to grant access to the user bugs from localhost to this database. Try the following, replacing the relevant parameters

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASENAME.* To 'user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
