Mysql DB password not transmitted by Zabbix Server

[jolypas]

Hello

I upgraded from 3.2 to 3.4 and I have the following issue :

connection to database 'zabbix' failed: [1045] Access denied for user 'zabbix'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

I checked in zabbix_server.conf and zabbix.conf.php, the DBPassword is well set.
I checked mysql acess for zabbix and this password , it is OK

a new conf somewhere in 3.4 for DB password ?

Thanks

Hi !

Nothing has changed in zabbix 3.4.4 regarding DB pasword

Are you sure it is not commented out in config file with # symbol ?
I can get answer in log (using password: NO) by commenting out DB password in 3.4.4 server config file.

Thanks for the answer

In fact zabbix-server was not starting at all and no logs were generated (I was looking older logs for this DB password issue)

A parameter set in 3.2 is no more valid in 3.4 so the server cannot start but nothing into the logs in this case.

I found that by deleting the logs and started the server binary manually in a console (not as a service). In this case the wrong parameter in the configuration file is displayed.

It is strange that this output is not written into the log file in this case.
