access problems MySQL Mac X 10.2
Posted: Fri Oct 04, 2002 4:53 pm
hey everyone, i have 2 machines that have the same problems. i installed MySQL from the packaged files found on the net, and evrything worked fine, until my terminal app crashed. then i get the error that i dont have access permission for localhost and no password has been set.
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)'
now, i see where it says Using password: NO), and i tried to set a password with the following command:
mysaladmin -u root password mypass
i tried with 'mypass' also, ive also tried other things, like reinstalling mysql, database, etc. i dont know what i need to do to set a password. please keep in mind that i am a newbie, and im trying to learn this stuff on my own, so any help (as in talk to me like im a newbie) will be appriciated!
ive also tried to search the manual.
thanks!!!!!
