Zabbix server is not running: the information displayed may not be current

[Samarch]

Hello

I’ve just installed Zabbix 7 on Ubuntu 24.04

On the main web page, I have the message

Zabbix server is not running: the information displayed may not be current

sudo systemctl status zabbix-server zabbix-agent apache2
gives active for all

In /var/log/zabbix/zabbix_server.log
I have this message
1276:20240716:125857.555 [Z3001] connection to database 'zabbix' failed: [1045] Access denied for user 'zabbix'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

But, I configured the server with
DB name zabbixdb
and
DB user zabbixusr

And in /etc/zabbix/web/zabbix.conf.php
I have indeed

// Zabbix GUI configuration file.

$DB['TYPE'] = 'MYSQL';
$DB['SERVER'] = 'localhost';
$DB['PORT'] = '0';
$DB['DATABASE'] = 'zabbixdb';
$DB['USER'] = 'zabbixusr';
$DB['PASSWORD'] = 'mypassword';

In mysql

Why does Zabbix still user zabbix as DB name and user name ?

Thanks

Why does Zabbix still user zabbix as DB name and user name ?

Most probably because your zabbix_server.conf has database and username set to "zabbix".
