Can anyone please help with this error message? Im running redhat 9 and everytime i want to start pandora it came up with “Error connecting database in init Phase. Aborting startup”. DBI and DBD::mysql already installed too.

You have to install MySQL 😀 and review that the port 3306 is open and that you have created the user that connects to the database (take a look at the .conf/pandora_server.conf file:

[code:1]pandora_server.conf

###################################################################################
# Pandora Server Parameters, please change it for your setup needs
###################################################################################

# Servername: Name of this server

# Error logfile: aux logfile for pandora_server errors (in Daemon mode)

# dbuser: Database user name (pandora by default)
