Problemas para configurar Mysql

Boa tarde, estou fazendo a trilha Nodejs e estou me encontrando com problemas para seguir a aula 3. Estou configurando o modulo de banco de dados e ao rodar o server ele está retornando a msg:

> projeto-nodejs-rest@1.0.0 start /home/me/Desktop/projetoNodeJs

Estou rodando mysql 8.0 no fedora.
