[zenoss-users] 2.2 Fresh RPM Install on CentOS 5.2 Failing MySQL Init

[jasondubya]

I just built a CentOS 5.2 server to test Zenoss as a replacement for Nagios.  Following the installation instructions linked below, I used yum to install the prerequisites then installed Zenoss and attempted to start it.  The one step I took that was not covered in the install docs was setting the MySQL root password, as this just seemed like a smart step to take.  Unfortunately, when I attempt to start Zenoss, it appears to fail because it cannot connect to MySQL.  As well, I am seeing a couple of missing files.

Has anyone else seen these issues?  Is there a place where I can configure the MySQL root password prior to initialization?
