Michael, it took me a few days to remember, but I had to set up root on my current MySQL (4.1.10a) with no password in order to get the current version of Koha (2.2.3) to install on my current RedHat box (AS4, 2.6.9-11.EL). Let me know if this works for you -- if so, it's a bug (installer not passing the password cleanly to MySQL?). Stephen Michael J Ives said:

I followed your document "Installing Koha 2.0.0 on Redhat Enterprise Linux AS 3" BUT I used fedora 4 and the latest version of Koha. The mysql updated to 4.1 I chose the latest versions of libyaz. I had no problems until I ran the installer.pl file. At the point where it asked for the mysql root password, I received an error that the root user could not connect. I downloaded the myswl-administrator file and could connect using the gui to mysql using the password assigned to root by the mysqladmin command. I went thru the reset password procedure and still received the same error from the installer.pl file. Is this a known bug? If so, is there a fix?
