PufferPanel Installation Error

[Jayson]

Greetings IT geeks of MC-Market. While installing PufferPanel on one of my VPS client's servers, I came up with the error of "An error occured while trying to connect to the remote node. Please check that Scales is running and try again." while creating a new server. I manually installed PufferPanel and Scales. Running on ubuntu 14.04 x86_64. For testing purposes, I opened all ports and Scales does have a successful start message. MySQL works fine.

No i'm not paying

Navigate to /srv/scales and type npm restart.

Try again.

Navigated to /srv/scales, "npm restart" unknown command.

Then try this:

cd /srv/scales

sudo npm start

Already tried earlier, and i'm on the root account.[DOUBLEPOST=1481774654][/DOUBLEPOST]I restarted scales and now the error has changed to this...

Go to "Admin Settings" -> "List Nodes" -> "[your node name]" -> "Auto-Deploy" -> "Generate Deployment Script". Then go to your SSH console and copy that in the terminal.

tried earlier, but I always get this error message:

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mysql-server:

Hum... try: sudo mysql_secure_installation

already installed, nothing wrong other than:

Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] Y
ERROR 1146 (42S02) at line 1: Table 'mysql.user' doesn't exist
... Failed!

Looks like something is messed up with your MySQL installation. The mysql.user table should definitely exist. Try running this:

sudo mysql_install_db

If that doesn't work, maybe the permissions on your MySQL data directory are messed up. You could also try re-installing MySQL completely.

To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy
support-files/mysql.server to the right place for your system
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands:
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h apollomc password 'new-password'
Alternatively you can run:
/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation
which will also give you the option of removing the test
databases and anonymous user created by default. This is
strongly recommended for production servers.
See the manual for more instructions.
You can start the MySQL daemon with:
cd /usr ; /usr/bin/mysqld_safe &
You can test the MySQL daemon with mysql-test-run.pl
cd /usr/mysql-test ; perl mysql-test-run.pl


I ran MySQL_secure_installation again, no errors, but i'm back to "An error occured while trying to connect to the remote node. Please check that Scales is running and try again." I'll reinstall it all later, midnight right now. Thx for the help.
