Plugin email-notification on AWS installation

[Andrew D]

Hello all,

I have installed the email-notifications plugin, but I'm stuck at the DB config stage, adding the additional tables.
https://docs.killbill.io/latest/email-notification-plugin.html#_database_configuration

I'm running on AWS EC2 from the marketplace, so I have no idea of MySQL user/password. I don't remember seeing it as something to take note of.

Could anyone direct me on how to run the DDL please?

Many Thanks,
Andy

Andrew,

Hi. If you are running the Single-Tier option on AWS, you can use ssh to login to your instance, then type

mysql -u root -proot

to open mysql. The username and password are both "root". This is not insecure because the database is not externally accessible. I hope this helps.

BTW this is documented at the very end of the Single-Tier document. So it is a bit hard to find.
