If you follow the README*, it tells you to try to run some SQL scripts from the bash command line; it should say something like "sudo mysql -p < scripts/00_create_wikimetrics_db . If you try to manually do what the scripts in the scripts/ directory aim to do, the "wikimetrics" user does not get created properly -- it needs to exist and have a password set. (Dan and I were testing this out today - he might have better troubleshooting/records in his .bash_history, etc.)
Dan, I think you wanted me to assign this to you?
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/106546/ addresses part of this bug, but when I do $ sudo mysql < scripts/00_create_wikimetrics_db I get ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
