Tip
You can skip the following Perl module installation steps by
installing Bundle::Bugzilla from CPAN, which installs all required
modules for you.
bash# perl -MCPAN -e 'install "Bundle::Bugzilla"'
Bundle::Bugzilla doesn't include GD, Chart::Base, or MIME::Parser,
which are not essential to a basic Bugzilla install. If installing
this bundle fails, you should install each module individually to
isolate the problem.

later if the need arises.
Assuming your perl was installed with CPAN (most unix installations

4.1.3.5. TimeDate modules (2.21)
Many of the more common date/time/calendar related Perl modules have
been grouped into a bundle similar to the MySQL modules bundle. This
bundle is stored on the CPAN under the name TimeDate. The component
module we're most interested in is the Date::Format module, but
installing all of them is probably a good idea anyway.

The DBI module is a generic Perl module used the MySQL-related
modules. As long as your Perl installation was done correctly the DBI
module should be a breeze. It's a mixed Perl/C module, but Perl's
MakeMaker system simplifies the C compilation greatly.

First, you'll want to fix MySQL permissions to allow access from This first thing you'll want to do is make sure you've given the
Bugzilla. For the purpose of this Installation section, the Bugzilla "root" user a password as suggested in Section 5.6.2. For clarity,
username will be "bugs", and will have minimal permissions. these instructions will assume that your MySQL user for Bugzilla will
be "bugs_user", the database will be called "bugs_db" and the password
Begin by giving the MySQL root user a password. MySQL passwords are for the "bugs_user" user is "bugs_password". You should, of course,
limited to 16 characters. substitute the values you intend to use for your site.
bash# mysql -u root mysql
mysql> UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('<new_password>') WHERE
user='root';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
From this point on, if you need to access MySQL as the MySQL root Note
user, you will need to use mysql -u root -p and enter <new_password>.
Remember that MySQL user names have nothing to do with Unix user names
(login names).
Next, we use an SQL GRANT command to create a "bugs" user, and grant
sufficient permissions for checksetup.pl, which we'll use later, to
work its magic. This also restricts the "bugs" user to operations
within a database called "bugs", and only allows the account to
connect from "localhost". Modify it to reflect your setup if you will
be connecting from another machine or as a different user.
Remember to set <bugs_password> to some unique password.
