    Fresh Zabbix setup fails when trying to create database

    Raspberry Pi 4 4GB of RAM.
    I get to this point,
    zcat /usr/share/doc/zabbix-server-mysql/create.sql.gz | mysql -uzabbix -p zabbix --asks for password, I enter zabbix and then install fails with ERROR 1698 (28000): Access denied for user 'zabbix'@'localhost' I've also tried using root password. I can log into mysql with sudo mysql -uroot -p and enter root password. Why won't it work per Zabbix website documentation? This is a fresh install of Raspbian "Buster" today running as root. Thank you, Doug

    Please read the instructions on the download page carefully. When you created the database you should have created a zabbix account and set a password. With that password, zabbix users should be able to register initial data.

    Zabbix is being downloaded over 4 000 000 times every year for a reason. Download and install Zabbix for free and try it yourself!

      I will give that a try. I followed the instruction from this link for Rasbian. https://www.zabbix.com/documentation.../debian_ubuntu

      Thank you, Doug
