Good Day all, I have two instances Zenoss 2.2 running on two different Centos boxes. Both machines have local versions of MySQL 5.0.45 installed and working just fine. I have not yet set a password for the root user on both machines. There is also a zenoss user with a passwd of zenoss on both MySQL setups. On my dev platform, when I go settings --> backup and tell it do a backup I get; "Output: /opt/zenoss/bin/zenbackup -v --save-mysql-access Getting mysql dbname, user, password from zeo Backup up events database. Backing up zeo database. Backing up config files. Backing up performance data. Packaging backup file. Backup file written to /opt/zenoss/backups/zenbackup_20080707_2.tgz Cleaning up temporary files. Backup complete. DONE "
However, when I do the same thing on my "production" install the backup returns; "Output: /opt/zenoss/bin/zenbackup -v --save-mysql-access mysqldump: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user 'zenoss'@'localhost' (using password: NO) when trying to connect Unable to get mysql info from zeo. Looks like zeo is not running. Backup up events database. DONE " I can run the zenbackup command from a bash as any user defining the --dbpass=somepass and it works like a champ on either machine. However, I'd really be interested in knowing where or how I can define the password for the backups without having to drop to a shell every time or via a cron. Is there some config file that I'm missing here or something? I did notice the "Unable to get mysql info from zeo. Looks like zeo is not running." statement there as well.. What is that trying to tell me? I've checked under the Daemons tab and everything is the same on both boxes. Only one service does not start and that's the zenjmx process. But it does not run on either machine so I wouldn't think that would cause this.. Would it? If anyone has any ideas or suggestions I'd love to hear them. Thanks so much and everyone have a GREAT day! -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://community.zenoss.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=22212#22212 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
