How can I determine the username and password necessary to access the database for ghost one click image?

Posted May 10, 2016
Ghost Ubuntu

I need to manually access the database for a one click ghost image installation.

How can I find the username and password necessary to get into the database? What is the easiest way to access it from a OS X? Will sequal pro work with sqlite used by the ghost installation like it does with the MySQL for WordPress?

What port does the database server ghost is running on use?

Thanks.

Here is the answer from support:

"Thank you for getting in contact with us!

Ghost actually uses a SQLite database file for its connections. It would be located within the Ghost document root at content/data/ghost.db

This is a file based datastore. It shouldn’t require any authentication unless the file is encrypted which it typically is not. "
