Hi all,
I've been using MySQL for over a year now and I didn't install
anything special recently, yet I suddenly find myself locked out of
MySQL.
I'm using version 3.23.49 and I'm running Mac OS 10.4.6 fully up-to-
date. I normally connect using the root-user but this afternoon I
first got a socket error. Not the first time so I just reboot the
server, socket error is gone but now I'm getting "Access denied for
user 'root'@'localhost' ". I restarted the server a few times and
even rebooted my system.
I can't connect using php, terminal, MySQL Administrator, ...
After a quick search on the http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/
resetting-permissions.html page. I tried that but alas, no change...
This might be a good time to update to MySQL 4 if I can get my data
out, but I don't see that happening without me getting access to the
server once again.
Does anyone have a solution?
Thank you for your time
Kevin Felix
