Use the script /olat3/bin/dbAndUserSetup.sh to automatically generate the OLAT database and user. You will be prompted to enter the mysql root password.

Or, create the database and user manually, and setup the database.

# mysql -u root -p On the console run the following SQL-statements:
# use mysql;
# mysql> create database olat;						
# mysql> create user 'olat'@'localhost' identified by 'olat';
# mysql> grant all on olat.* to 'olat'@'localhost' identified by 'olat';
# mysql> flush privileges;  		
# mysql> source  OLAT3_HOME/webapp/WEB-INF/src/resources/database/mysql/setupDatabase.sql;
