I’m getting following Error when I try to install the easy way on my CentOS.
I had to remove mariadb and stop apache httd first, before I can install.
sudo bash setup_frappe.sh --setup-production
Installing for centos 7 amd64

Installing wkhtmltopdf
Configuring CentOS services
Starting services
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
Hard to say from error description but I had issues thinking I had removed Maria DB but in fact bits remained from previous install. Try this:
If any of the yum remove commands return no file found no problem it just means it didn’t exsist.
sudo systemctl stop mariadb
sudo yum remove mariadb-server mariadb mariadb-libs
sudo yum remove mariadb-common mariadb-compat
sudo yum remove mysql-libs mysql-devel
sudo rm /etc/yum.repos.d/MariaDB.repo
And then run one or both of these commands depending on what install you have
sudo rm /etc/my.cnf
sudo rm /etc/my.cnf.d
sudo yum clean all
Then to see if all your db parts have been deleted
yum list installed | grep MariaDB
Then run frappe installer again…
You may have to do something similar with wkhtmltopdf.

Thank you for your answer. I tried this earlier but it didn’t work for me.
I had the problem that the server I used had plesk with everything already installed. So I just did a clean install and ran the script.
Did you get frappe to install in the end?
I have only installed on bare metal. I used minimal Centos 7 sever and then added EPEL.
sudo yum install epel-release
Remove MariaDB.
sudo systemctl reboot.
then run frappe easy install.
If you have a failed previous install like you had. Delete frappe user and all frappe files before trying again. I think the frappe easy installer installs MariaDB 10 (Sorry the last time I did this was about 8 months ago ) if not once frappe is up and running sudo yum update will update it for you. Frappe runs fine newer version.
