Thank you very much Daniel !

I just did what you told me to do and everything came fine this time...
Now, the hardest part, I guess, configuring it to take what I want...

Best regards,

Marcos...

Marcos,
What i learned (the hard way) is that it seems you need to null out the mysql root users' password during the installation. After the install is complete, you can re-add the root mysql user back to whatever it was. If you dont, it will create some tables, but not all tables. You may be getting a similar problem for your implementation. 

Below is the procedure i use to install/upgrade my Zenoss installs:

Hope this helps,

-Daniel

Hi there people !
I´m a newbie about zenoss, but I´m trying to install it in a FC-6 box. I´m have problem when finishing the installation: "Unable to create the initial Zenoss object database". After some searching at zenoss´s list, I found the subject "Trunk migrated to Zope 2.10.1" with people having the same problem. But after following it and some svn upgrade I could not resolve my problem. I´m sending my zenbuild, so if someone could clear-me with what is happening... 

Thanks in advance !
