Hi,
Building from source is the same procedure. You just need to install
mysql-server before you run rdadmin and check you can connect to it with
root and whatever password you chose.
I run/have ran Rivendell on Debian 6, 7, Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04 for no
other reason than I am more familiar with Debian based stuff. You can
also use the tryphon.eu repos to get an easy apt-get install rivendell
rivendell-server line however they haven't been updated since v2.10.
Be aware that Ubuntu 16.04 and by extension Debian 8 (9?) upped the
MySQL version number to 5.7 which has some stricter null interpretations
that makes life interesting. You will need to be using the latest Riv
2.15 version which has patches to fix this.
You will also have some fun and games getting QT3 installed from
source. Short story is use Ubuntu 14.04 or Debian 7 with the tryphon
repos unless you specifically need later versions of Rivendell and you
will have a very easy time on Debian based distros.
Regards,
Wayne

Hi,
All you have to do is run rdadmin, it will prompt you for the db access
details. Assuming these work, it will create a database called
Rivendell and set up a user called rduser for the db.
Great, thanks. This worked on the broadcast appliance, but building from
source. That just responds 'Could not open MySQL connection on
"localhost"'. This is not too much of an issue currently as I am still
evaluating Rivendell to see if it fits our use-case, but down the line
it would be nice to install this on a Debian base instead of CentOS.
Thanks
