I am trying to get Zabbix up and running and I get an error after running; zcat /usr/share/doc/zabbix-server-mysql/create.sql.gz | mysql -uzabbix -p zabbix Error I receive is;
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'zabbix'@'localhost' (using password: YES). I have followed steps from Zabbix website; https://www.zabbix.com/documentation.../debian_ubuntu

If you are not root - try running the command with sudo.

Also, I am assuming that you did complete the creation of the initial database.

# mysql -uroot -p
# password
mysql> create database zabbix character set utf8 collate utf8_bin;
mysql> grant all privileges on zabbix.* to zabbix@localhost identified by 'password';
mysql> quit;

Thank you for the link, I was able to get Zabbix setup on my Pi4. I have saved the link. Wish I would have found it, much more useful than the one I used.
Thanks again, Doug
