Installation: MySQL DB--not continuing if MySQL not ready

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Minor issue, but was wondering if the installation script was supposed to exit if a user chooses not to go ahead with the install (if MySQL is chosen as the DB choice and the DB is not yet ready):

Ex.

Step 2: Setting Basic Configuration Parameters
We are now going to configure the server using a bunch of questions.


-=GRR Datastore=-
For GRR to work each GRR server has to be able to communicate with the
datastore.  To do this we need to configure a datastore.


1. SQLite (Default) - This datastore is stored on the local file system. If you
configure GRR to run as non-root be sure to allow that user access to the files.

2. MySQL - This datastore uses MySQL and requires MySQL 5.6 server or later
to be running and a user with the ability to create the GRR database and tables.
The MySQL client binaries are required for use with the MySQLdb python module as
well.

Datastore [1]: 2


***WARNING***

Do not continue until a MySQL server, version 5.6 or greater, is running and a
user with the ability to create the GRR database and tables has been created.
You will need the server, username, password, and database name (if already
created) to continue. If no database has been created this script will attempt
to create the necessary database and tables using the credentials provided.
