Hi everyone,
I am having trouble with installing Corteza and could use some help. During the installation process; I faced the following error: 
[ERROR]: Unable to connect to the database. Please check your database credentials and ensure the database server is running.
System Requirements:
Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04
PHP Version: PHP 7.4
MySQL Version: MySQL 8.0
Database Configuration:
Database Host: localhost
Database Port: 3306
Database Name: corteza_db
Username: corteza_user
Password: password123
I have confirmed that the database server is running and accessible.
I have also ensured that all required dependencies are installed as per the Corteza documentation. I followed the installation documentation meticulously. After getting the error; I restarted the installation process and rechecked the configuration; but the issue still there . I have checked I have checked How to install & upgrade Corteza, and anything you need for installation msbi reference guide but still need help.
If anyone has faced a similar issue / has any suggestions on how to resolve this; I would greatly appreciate your advice .
Thanks in advance for your help!
