Sorry for appearing like a dummy but I am not a Unix person ! I installed MySQL on an OSX client stumbling around the administrator app all I wanted to do was to create a database I inadvertently deleted what looked like a blank user and now I cannot connect to MySQL at all ok I will rephrase, the MySQL Administrator app connects but doesn¹t allow me to do or see anything so is pretty near useless....
Things I don¹t know how to do : How do I kill the MySQL process ? Every time I force quit the process in Activity monitor it just starts a new one.... Do I have to remove the MySQL installation in order to re-install and get my blank user back ? If I have to remove it what/where/how do I do that ? Are there any decent documented sites that can help me to administer MySQL under OSX ? So far I have found diddly squat of any real use... Many thanks Andy Hilton
