First off, let me say I love YunoHost! Have been running it on an old Raspberry Pi for quite some years and have learned some harsh beginner admin lessons and have had a lot of fun with Nextcloud, Gitea, Backdrop and more.
I have two very simple questions, that might be too basic to be considered, but I could not find an answer in the documentation, this forum, or elsewhere.
Because these questions are so basic, I did not think I needed to provide details on my setup (will be happy to provide these of course if they are helpful here). Here are my questions:
The documentation (my_webapp_ynh/README.md at testing · YunoHost-Apps/my_webapp_ynh · GitHub) mentions that when you select to install the MySQL-database (which I did) the connection details will be stored in the file db_access.txt in the root directory. But I don’t seem to have this file, not in /var/www/my_webapp nor elsewhere.
I cannot seem to log in to the MySQL-database, for example the command below returns “ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user ‘my_webapp’@‘localhost’ (using password: YES)”
mysql --host=localhost --user=my_webapp --password=[the password that the after installation popup provides] my_webapp
Mmmh it looks like this file was removed without updating the documentation… sorry! Normally a banner should have been displayed in the webadmin with those credentials. (reading further down your message, you did saw it )
Otherwise to display it: yunohost app setting my_webapp db_pwd
I can replicate your issue, and it is definitely not normal.
@j8ter If your problem is not already resolved: see the db_pwd or mysqlpwd line in /etc/yunohost/apps/my_webapp/settings.yml (my_webapp with any number if it’s not the first), and compare to the one the banner gave you. Maybe there is an inconsistency here.
