Basically you have to set the root password in MySQL to blank during the
install. Then you can reset it back to a strong password once done with
the install. (unless you install from source)

I just built a CentOS 5.2 server to test Zenoss as a replacement for Nagios.
Following the installation instructions linked below, I used yum to install the
prerequisites then installed Zenoss and attempted to start it. The one step I
took that was not covered in the install docs was setting the MySQL root
password, as this just seemed like a smart step to take. Unfortunately, when I
attempt to start Zenoss, it appears to fail because it cannot connect to MySQL.
As well, I am seeing a couple of missing files.
Has anyone else seen these issues? Is there a place where I can configure the
MySQL root password prior to initialization?
