Do you have all the relevant MySQL packages installed?

Have you assigned a password to the MySQL root user?

What happens if you type:

        mysql -uroot -p[whatever]

If that comand works, you should be able to give mysqladmin 'root' and whatever password you assigned the MySQL root user, and it should create a database.

Long time no see...
Since the end(?)  of Tryphon's Ubuntu "just add water" Rivendell fork I have
"quit" from RD... untill I start missing it.
I'm on a stage of compiling from source on a already running Mint 18.1.

I'm using this tutorial:
http://rivendell.tryphon.org/wiki/UbuntuXenial

Issues so far:
- RDADMIN: "Unable to connect to mysql", thus unable to create a new DB.

Also:
pedro-home rivendell-2.16.0 # patch /rdadmin/opendb.cpp opendb.cpp.patch
patching file /rdadmin/opendb.cpp
Hunk #1 FAILED at 240.
patch: **** Can't reopen file /rdadmin/opendb.cpp : No such file or
directory

pedro-home rivendell-2.16.0 # patch /rdadmin/createdb.cpp
createdb.cpp-instance.patch
patching file /rdadmin/createdb.cpp
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1241.
Hunk #2 FAILED at 1353.
Hunk #3 FAILED at 1773.
Hunk #4 FAILED at 1808.
patch: **** Can't reopen file /rdadmin/createdb.cpp : No such file or
directory

I don't know if the patch problem (wich I might be doing something wrong)
can be related to the "Unable to connect to mysql"

QUESTION; What should be the (RDADMIN) Username and password for a compiled
from source? I'm using "root/root" with no success

 
The database is apparentely ok. I've checked on the terminal it with no
errors returned.

Hints?... TIA!

      On behalf of the entire Rivendell development team, I'm pleased
      to announce the availability of Rivendell v2.16.0.  Rivendell is
      a full-featured radio automation system targeted for use in
      professional broadcast environments. It is available under the
      GNU General Public License.

      From the NEWS file:*** snip snip ***
Changes:
   Audio Store Hashing. Rivendell now automatically generates a SHA1
hash
   for each file in the audio store and records this value in the
database,
   thus permitting automated recovery of audio in the event of loss or
damage
   to the audio store's filesystem directory. See the --relink-audio
option
   in the rddbcheck(8) man page for details.

   Kernel GPIO. Added switcher support for Kernel GPIO devices, such
as
   the GPIO interface on the Raspberry Pi 2 and 3.

   Modbus TCP. Added switcher support for Modbus TCP devices.

   RDConvert. Added an rdconvert(1) utility,

   User Authentication. It is now possible to delegate authentication
of
   Rivendell users by means of a PAM module, thus permitting 'single
sign-on'
   integration with systems such as ActiveDirectory and FreeIPA.

   Web API. Added various methods to the Rivendell Web API to permit
   integration with external audio and log editors.

   Various other bug fixes.  See the ChangeLog for details.   

Database Update:
   This version of Rivendell uses database schema version 263, and
will
   automatically upgrade any earlier versions.  To see the current
schema
   version prior to upgrade, see RDAdmin->SystemInfo.

   As always, be sure to run RDAdmin immediately after upgrading to
allow 
   any necessary changes to the database schema to be applied.
