Whats your problem?

I've already cloned the emulator which was very easy

But

I have problems with adding new user as said on the instructions that we should not use root as user.

Also, have problem setting up the MYSQL.

What problem adding user? What problem with mysql?

 

There's so much that can happen, you should provide more infos if you want help.

i typed in useradd and passwd to create new users in the command line but i guess i did not work for me cause it did nothing.

 

For mysql, everything did not work like creating new database, creating new database username and password, and grant privileges.

 

one more question:

should i use putty or winscp setting up the server side?

Putty is fine.

 

 

About users: Which tutorial are you using? Did you added with "chown"? To check if the user was added type "compgen -u | grep $username_you_chose" - if return the name you typed the user exists.

 

About mysql: dump the errors here.

try guide in my signature it should be a breeze if you use Debian or ubuntu as operating system...

 

Just skip the part about Router setup .... Since you rent a VPS at DigiOcean this step already done by them...

you should instead use 'adduser' as it auto creates home directory for user.

or if you are still using useradd, you can do so by having -m parameter:'useradd -m'

 

I recommend adduser command.
