      @kagashe Typically on Ubuntu you need to setup remote access for the MySQL user called ‘fogstorage’. Here’s steps on that as well as other troubleshooting help: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Troubleshoot_MySQL#Enable_remote_mysql_access

        I suspected something like that so initially just for testing I set a password for root, enabled remote root access in mysql and then chnged the credentials in fogsettings but still had the same error. I am able to access mysql with those credentials from the command line on the node.

          @kagashe Whenever you change the fogsettings file, you need to re-run the fog installer.
