I am trying to install SuiteCRM on my ubuntu. I have done all the other work and now it is only left for installation. However, in the installation I faced a problem which is that the installation does not go forward and give the message “Verifying DB Credentials”.
I will attach the picture. Kindly tell me what to do.
Try host name as localhost

I tried but it also did not work
What is your bind address in the my.cnf?
I would have expected localhost to work as default and the IP connection to be rejected if you haven’t modified your mysql instance.
Try looking here
/etc/mysql/my.cnf
the bind address by default is 127.0.0.1 (localhost) If you want to allow external connections change that to your IP Address “192.168.5.35” and restart mysql
sudo systemctl restart mysql-server
You will also need to create a user within mysql to allow the connection to be made on 192.168.5.35 - using root creds is fine if you are in a development environment but wouldn’t recommend in production.
CREATE USER ‘noman’@‘192.168.5.35’ IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY ‘changeme’;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON . TO ‘noman’@‘192.168.5.35’;
Kindly provide with any other solution. As I should get this done before 4:00 of the clock here in Afghanistan.
It is to inform you guys that I successfully installed SuiteCRM.
