The installer will automatically configure the Connect Server to use the supplied password and
port.
l MySQL user 'root' Password: Enter the password for the 'root', or administration
account, for the MySQL server. The password must be at least 8 characters long and
contain at least one of each of the following:
l a lower case character (a, b, c ... )
l an upper case character (A, B, C ...)
l a numeric digit (1, 2, 3 ...)
l a punctuation character (@, $, ~ ...)
For example:"This1s@K"
Note
When updating from an earlier Connect version, the appropriate MySQL password
must be entered or the update will fail.
If the password is subsequently forgotten, then MySQL must be uninstalled and its
database deleted from disk before attempting to reinstall.
l Confirm MySQL user 'root' Password: Re-enter to confirm the password. Both
passwords must match for installation to continue.
l TCP/IP Port Number: The port on which MySQL will expect, and respond to, requests. A
check is run to confirm whether the specified TCP\IP Port Number is available on the
local machine. If it is already being used by another service (generally, an existing
MySQL installation), the number is highlighted in red and a warning message is
displayed at the top of the dialog.
Note
The MySQL database controlled by the OLConnect_MySQL service communicates
through port 3306 by default.
l Allow MySQL Server to accept non-local TCP connections checkbox: Click to enable
external access to the MySQL server.
