Log in with the user
rootand the password you've entered during the installation process of Bitnami.Click on the Users tab and then on Add user and enter the following values:
Make sure you remember the password as you'll need it later when we install concrete5. Also make sure you select the radio button Create database with same name and grant all privileges. Click on Add user to confirm all values and continue creating the users and database.

Change the value for Collation to
utf8_general_ciand confirm the change by clicking on Go. With this step, we made sure that our database and therefore concrete5 can work with non-Latin characters such as umlauts and even Japanese or Chinese characters.
