I have just tried a new , celan, installation with the actual 5.2.5 Version. I use MariaDB 5.5.53 with MyISAM Engine.
When I enter the database credentials, i get the same error as before:
-Database can't be reached. Please check the credentials and if database exists-
It looks like, the server cannon establish a remote connection to the databe.
I noticed during the setup, that there was not a field to enter the path to the java-installation. Perhaps, ilias needs this, if the database connection is established trough a jdbc?
Cheers,
Alex
