All help appreciated. Thank you.

I have successfully installed sympa 6.2.64 from package on Oracle Linux 7.9.  I am going through the configuration process and when instructed to run sympa.pl --health_check to create the database structure if fails.  Below are the results of the actual command, the sympa.conf database section and mysql showing the sympa user can log in and see the sympa database.

Command output:  sympa.pl --health_check
Database sympa defined in sympa.conf has not the right structure or is unreachable. Verify db_xxx parameters in sympa.conf.

Sympa.conf database section:

########################################################################
# Setup database
# See https://sympa-community.github.io/manual/install/setup-database.html
########################################################################

db_type             mysql
db_name             sympa
db_host             localhost
#db_port
db_user             sympa
db_passwd         (hidden from you)
#db_env

Mysql results for sympa user:

mysql -u sympa -p
