Hi!
On Glitch app containers, what’s the default password for the app user?
Thanks :slight_smile:

Not sure if you’re allowed to. You can email support@glitch.com

I don’t think there is a password because there is no root access.

The app user is not root.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the user pick the password for their MySQL database? Could you send a screenshot of the command? I’ve just never heard of something like this.

I’m…not sure. Command is just mysql. But if yes, I think this password has to be set from root.

Interesting… I will ping @glitch_support. However, I think that if you need a password from the root on glitch, you cannot do it as there is no root access in glitch containers.

I know there’s no root access.

Were you using the lamp-poc project for the MySQL database? I know that MySQL is possible there.

Just want to come back here after I actually learned about managing mysql stuff. The mysql root user can be used to set up a database with mysql -u root.
