Installation doesn't work

Installation doesn't work
I followed the process

• setup nginx, mariadb and php with all add-ons required.
• install git and composer
• clone and run composer install
  On the part :
  bin/console kimai:install -n
  I got hit with multiple errors about 'user' @ 'localhost' Access Denied.
  Nothing is mentioned about the configuration of database for Kimai2 nor nginx.

Seems Kimai is working perfectly fine.
You just need to pass a database user with sufficient permission.

See https://www.kimai.org/documentation/installation.html

Configure the database connection in the .env file:
eg. DATABASE_URL=mysql://user:[email protected]:3306/database

Ok I figured that out.
you need to create a username/password in mysql server and grant privileges for that user in mysql.
Then configure .env file

Happy time-tracking!

ah, permissions are essential. Vendor directory was created after I applied general setup permissions and until I discovered that the application didn't work.
Thank you.
