Installation Assistant - Please fill out this field (Password)

I'm new to Osclass and tried to install it following an older version installation youtube video.

I cannot pass the Instalation Assistant step because it requires to fill out the password field, but I did not set a password.

I only used "root" to access localhost/phpmyadmin/

In the youtube video, there the password setup is not forced.

I attach a screenchot of the problem.


Thank you for your solution!

You cannot created database user without password.

Thanks for the reply.

Actually, in previous version you could simply use username as "root" without any password, as demonstrated in this youtube video ID:

at timestamp 7:25.

Anyway, the solution to the problem was to create a new username and password and give it all priviledges (same as root), instead of using root.

Using database login without password is something I've not seen for long time.

Hello,

I did not ask what you had or hadn't seen in a long time.
I asked for a solution you did not provide.
