root@zabbix:~# apt update && apt -y upgrade
root@zabbix:~# apt install -y apt-transport-https lsb-release ca-certificates
root@zabbix:~# apt install -y php php-mysql php-common php-cli php-common php-json php-readline php-mbstring php-gd php-zip php-curl
root@zabbix:~#  wget https://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/7.4/release/ubuntu/pool/main/z/zabbix-release/zabbix-release_latest_7.4+ubuntu22.04_all.deb

root@zabbix:~# apt update
root@zabbix:~# apt install -y zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-frontend-php zabbix-nginx-conf zabbix-sql-scripts zabbix-agent

Step #02: Install mysql database and configure root user password

root@zabbix:~# apt install -y mysql-server
root@zabbix:~# systemctl start mysqld
root@zabbix:~# systemctl enable mysqld
root@zabbix:~# systemctl status mysqld
root@zabbix:~# mysql -u root -p

Default mysql root password is blank.

mysql> SELECT user,authentication_string,plugin,host FROM mysql.user; //mysql 8 reset password command.
mysql> ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'passw0rd@123';
mysql> use mysql;
mysql> UPDATE user SET plugin="mysql_native_password" WHERE User='root';
mysql> flush privileges;

Step #03: Create database for zabbix user with password.

create database zabbix_db character set utf8mb4 collate utf8mb4_bin;
create user zabbix_user@localhost identified by 'zabbix@123';
GRANT CREATE, ALTER, DROP, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, SELECT, REFERENCES, RELOAD on *.* TO 'zabbix_user'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;
grant all privileges on zabbix_db.* to zabbix_user@localhost;
set global log_bin_trust_function_creators = 1;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
q

Note: (you can replace user password from zabbix@123)

Step #04: Import zabbix default database on created database.

root@zabbix:~# zcat /usr/share/zabbix/sql-scripts/mysql/server.sql.gz | mysql --default-character-set=utf8mb4 -uzabbix_user -p zabbix_db

Then type mysql zabbix_user password.

After import database Disable log_bin_trust_function_creators option after importing database schema.

root@zabbix:~# mysql -uroot -p

Then type mysql root password. Run below command.

set global log_bin_trust_function_creators = 0;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
q

DBName=zabbix_db
DBUser=zabbix_user
DBPassword=zabbix@123

Remove # mark from below line and replace ip address as your server ip.

listen          80;

root@zabbix:~# apt remove apache2 -y
root@zabbix:~# systemctl restart zabbix-server zabbix-agent nginx php8.1-fpm
