For MySQL, a temporary root password will be displayed at activation time.

Usually, activation happens during boot. Have you tried rebooting, and did you see anything at that time? -- Chris [-- Attachment #2: signature.asc --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 832 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

I feel like I must be misunderstanding :p I wish I knew the answer, but I'm not sure. I would have expected it to print the message either during "reconfigure" or at boot. Maybe it's in /var/log/messages or something? I would suggest grepping /var/log for something unique (perhaps there is a string in the activation procedure you can grep for?). Or maybe you can "git blame" on the Guix source to find out who added this, and ask them directly how it is supposed to be used. Good luck! -- Chris [-- Attachment #2: signature.asc --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 832 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
