Dear Maintainer,
In my understanding setup-mysql should create a user and a database in mysql
for using in wordpress, if I install wordpress from scratch.
The creation of the user can only be done by root and not by the
not-yet-created user itself.
Here is the patch I applied to the script. Then it worked for me:
86c86
< MYSQLCOMMAND="mysql -u $DB_USER -p -h $DB_HOST"
---
> MYSQLCOMMAND="mysql -u root -h $DB_HOST"
