Hi Luke,

Yep, there is a procedure in the manual

This has all the steps you will need to get root back.

Hope it all ends up ok!


That went well (resetting the root password).
Then the grant statement did the trick.
Thanks.
Kind regards.
Luke.

Hi David.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Luke,

Have you tried doing another GRANT statement to ensure the name and
password are indeed correct? That would be my next step. That way at
least you are sure that the name/password combination are correct.



I can't access the database as root anymore.
Accessing as other users doesn't allow me to set any GRANT statements.
Is there any way I can reset the root password? (Ouch).

Luke.
