Database Error when trying to install froxlor

Featured Replies

Hello people from Froxlor, first of all thank you for this nice software! i really like the functionality of the demo so i am trying to install froxlor on my own vps.

I have created a fresh vps, with nginx php-fpm and mariadb, this is behind a reverse proxy, everything is working well and i can reach my website.

However, when trying to install froxlor, i get the error

Spoiler

Froxlor install - setup

Checking MySQL-root access... OK
Checking database... Unable to create database. A database with the same name exists and should not be overwritten

There seems to be a problem with the database-connection. Cannot continue. Please go back and check your credentials.

 

 

I have checked in mariadb and there is no database with the same name, i have also ticked the option to overwrite, but this has no effect.

MariaDB [(none)]> show databases;
+--------------------+
| Database           |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql              |
| performance_schema |
+--------------------+
3 rows in set (0.001 sec)

Could somebody help me with what im missing?

Kind regards
