Access denied for user 'replace_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Hi, Total newb here.

Trying to use the VHD appliance and get this message when I access the system via browser

Database error: Access denied for user 'replace_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

I'm trying to learn linux but I'm stumped trying to follow the instructions here

https://www.zabbix.com/forum/zabbix-troubleshooting-and-problems/410545-access-denied-for-user-replace_user-localhost-using-password-yes

Here is what I did: I did modify the two conf files, I think correctly, using WinSCP. But the steps for updating the passwords for mysql are over my head.

Can I get some assistance here?

Why do you think the developers did this? To force us to change the passwords? A note in the instructions would have helped!

Cheers

same here, any news on that?

Now we have documented what to do in this case, see section "Troubleshooting":
