Debian Jessie (ARMBian), armhf (Banana Pi - comparable to Raspberry Pi 2 platform). Installing from "testing" Repository (also unstable repository with same issue)
Description
Hello,
there is no root-password prompt during installation of mariadb-server 10.0.23-2 out of unstable and testing repos of debian for arm systems.
Even if I set a password manually with:
mysqladmin -u root password MYPASSWORD
it will still not work.
Also configuring the coresponding *my.cnf* file does not help:
/root/.my.cnf
[client]
user=root
password=MYPASSWORDchmod 600 /root/.my.cnf
This is reproducable. If I install an older MariaDB-Server (10.0.23-0+deb8u1) it will direclty ask for a new root password during installation process.
The issue affects in my case the installation of a seafile server. This comes during installation of seafile server in combination with mariadb-server:
What is the password of the mysql root user?
[ root password ]verifying password of user root ...
Failed to connect to mysql server using user "root" and password "***": Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'
