myfaqadmin: Cannot log in to the MySQL server

Post by pmd »

Hi

I have problems with a new installation runing on docker.
this is probably some configuration issue.

When trying to login on phpmyadmin I get a " Cannot log in to the MySQL server" error on top and details says: "mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/1045): Access denied for user 'pmd'@'172.18.0.17' (using password: YES)"

I would not have expected phpmyadmin to connect to the database as my admin user, but a fixed internal account. But maybe that's by design and ok?

I dont know anything about MyPhpFaq, I'm just setting it up for another person. So my knowledge of troubleshooting this is nearly null.

Does someone have a clue what todo about it?

the version is 3.0.0-alpha-2

The database, faq and admin site in different docker containers.

BR Peter, denmark
