While trying to login to the server I got the following errors:
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp. C:\>c:\mysql\bin\mysql -root -p Enter password: ***** ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) C:\>c:\mysql\bin\mysql -root -p Enter password: ****** ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) C:\>c:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow c:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password : NO) C:\>c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root password my-password-here c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)' C:\>c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root -h fayec password my-password-here c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin: connect to server at 'fayec' failed error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)' Then I started the service with: C:\>c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --skip-grant-tables I am now trying to reset my root password but I am getting errors when trying to do so. I followed the instructions on: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Resetting_permissions.html but when I get to the point I have to use: flush-privileges password "newpwd" I get the following error: 'flush-privileges' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I have no clue how to go on from here....anybody?? I am trying to login to be able to create a db but it won't let me through without a password and it won't accept the password I had set before (pretty sure about the old password as it is the same I use for all my local projects). Any tips will be extremely appreciated. Thanks in advance.
