I did a fresh installation on Debian 8.2 (jessie) using the ownCloud
packages.
https://download.owncloud.org/download/repositories/stable/owncloud/
In the process I generated a password for the root MySQL user.
When trying the initial setup wizard, I get an error message:
Error while trying to create admin user: Failed to connect to the
database: An exception occured in driver: SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045]
Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
<RANT>And why can I not simply copy the error message from iceweasel so
I can simply paste it into my email? I know enough to generate the
source so I could copy from that. Aside from being an unnecessary PITA,
not all users know that they can copy from the source.</RANT>
I can log in to mysql using the following:
mysql -u root --password=<obfuscated>
as a regular user and as user root.
The only non-alphanumeric character in the password is the last one, an
underscore (_).
