Yes i used DB_ROOT_PASS for the root database password, but maybe i used some symbols which mysql didn't liked and switched them somehow.
I will follow the instructions on the websites you posted. They look a little different. Maybe they work.
Wish me luck
Thanks for all the help! -

Wish me luck Thanks for all the help!For databases, I keep passwords to standard numbers and letters, avoiding symbols. Some databases don't like those things and they can get squirely.

That was supposed to be squiirely. Squirely is totally different.

It worked! I have access to my root user for the DB again. I could not kill the process the way it was described on the website, but i could search with ps -auxww and found the PID to use kill for.
I am not really sure if i did "composer install" as root or not. Just in case i made the mistake to install with the root user, is there any way to fix that or is it worth the time to reinstall everything just with a normal account without sudo and without root?

I always install after
su -to root. I do not know enough about composer to answer your question though. -
Okay thanks alot. I am just scared about some "major" mistakes, since bookstack will end up being my private documentation for... well... everything.

Good backups and the rest doesn't matter so much. You can always get back to working with a good backup.

Woop installed and ready to use.
(Does it matter i have no idea what half those commands did, but yet i have a working system
)I guess that was the point of the post, was to make it crazy simple. I suppose whether it matters if you have no idea or not depends on whether you want to learn what those commands do or not
That is the point of my guides. They are for both education and getting a working system. ...
On that, you do a fantastic job. Though the main point here being installing BookStack (Which I plan to do today), I've also been meaning to understand a bit more on the proper ways to add exceptions to firewalld and selinux, and this may give me just enough to actually understand how to do so. Since I've just been running sandboxes and testing apps, I've just disabled both of them since my VM's don't really last longer than a week. However, one of my projects in mind is better locking down Linux (CentOS/Fedora), and providing a use/security case to TPTB to tell them that Linux isn't the devil, when done right. lol.

Maybe FreeBSD is the

And still works on my install that was 27 then upgraded to 28 and now upgraded to 29.
