High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.
"2017-05-29 18:25:07,990 ERROR Failed to connect to MySQL: (1045, u"Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)")"
Thats the important part of the log. Its failing to connect to the database. This could be down to two main reasons. Either the password it is trying to use to login, is wrong. Or the user doesnt have perms to access the database. Since its the root user, thats unlikely.
Did you restart multicraft after changing the password in the config?
./home/minecraft/multicraft/bin/multicraft restart

I'm not sure if its the root user, since it's my friend's user that I made for him. How can I restart multicraft?
It says its the root user in the root mysql user in the log. Anyhow to restart multicraft run this command:
./home/minecraft/multicraft/bin/multicraft restart
Unless you have a diffrent path you've installed it. But thats the default.
Thank you so much
I just paid clovux to set everything up, do I just add a new user on phpMyAdmin or do I have to add permissions and such as well?
Clovux Setup your multicrap?
The fuck... you make seperate users for the multicrap panel & the daemon...
If you make a new user **FOR BOTH SERVICES OF MULTICRAP** on phpmyadmin, you would have to change the panel's config file, and the daemon's config file.
wdym? What user permissions do I need to grant? Any idea on what hostname I should use?
2 users
1) multicraft_panel
2) multicraft_daemon
they should have their own respective databases for both of those, give both users perms to the right database
Thanks, what host name do I use?
localhost
Latouth 's right. You shouldn't really be using the same user for both databases. Especially the root one.
Main reason is segregation. If someone managed to get the password for your panel database. They could break your panel, and you would need to import the default one, and then change your settings again within multicraft. But if you're using the root user and someone got the password, the person could just drop all your databases, breaking your panel, daemon and any other database you have on there. (Stats / bans plugin, forum etc) Forums especially. Most store almost everything in their database.
One way someone could get it, is say if you use a plugin that uses MySQL. If you are using the root user for that too, anyone (say an admin) with FTP access. Would be able to exploit that change anything in your database. He could drop your databases, or even change your Multicraft password, delete your forum etc. There are several ways someone could gain access, that's just one of many.
The person who installed it was likely been lazy using the root user. Since it saves them a little time creating 2 users and giving them perms to access a database each. Cutting corners at the expense of security often ends badly.

Thank you so much ^-^ I have the following users, I'm running Multicraft, Namelessmc, and Xenforo. Any other changes I should make?

It literally takes 4 extra fucking commands.
CREATE USER 'multicrap_panel'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'insert_multicrap_panel_password_here';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON multicrap_panel.* TO 'multicrap_panel'@'localhost';
CREATE USER 'multicrap_daemon'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'insert_multicrap_daemon_password_here';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON multicrap_daemon.* TO 'multicrap_daemon'@'localhost';
