ok noob here, just got the TCAdmin pro license (purchase) a couple weeks ago and i've always used the ARK Server Manager to run it, but since i got this, i wanted to integrate it (as a FRESH install) however i've never used a cluster, and never used a MySQL database.
i downloaded the config, imported it as update and overwrite per instructions. my TCAdmin panel is PRO version 2.0.163.0 and i ran the steam update. however when trying to start, i get this error:
Access denied for user 'USER_OMITTED'@'x.x.x.x' (using password: YES)
it appears as my SQL database password to my TCAdmin installation, which runs on my webhost server, and not the Master server.
I followed the instruction on the link in the 2nd post at the TCAdmin wiki for the SQL scripts as Global Scripts, and created the global variables as per the instructions (also created them as Game variables as well just in case and updated the game services). The SQL database the global scripts create is on the Master Server (not accessible to outside world, but is via LOCALHOST).
yet it still trying to access via the install credentials (and likely the install database).
ideas? or am i just doing it wrong? searching turned up nothing, tried that first...
