Hi Andrew,
I think he means re-install MySQL and provide a root password (you
said when you originally installed it that you didn't give it a
password.)
After you've done this, try mysql from the command-line explicitly
telling it to use the user "root":
mysql --user=root --password
The "--password" here tells mysql to prompt you for a password, or
alternatively you can provide the password on the command-line too:
mysql --user=root --password=<password>
Once you can login via the command-line there's no reason why the
Admin GUI shouldn't be able to login too.
Regards,
Andy

Hi Andrew
As per your Question , you can test with the below solution :-
Try to reconfigure MySQL by providing the root password and then
try to run the
administer GUI. This should solve the problem.

Hello
I am still getting the MySQL Error Number 1045 Access denied error message
when running the adminstrator gui. I attempted to start mysql from the dos
command line via "mysql" and I am getting the following. ERROR
1045 (28000):
Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO). I am
logging in as root, locahost and no password because I did not enter one
when I installed the software. I will be changing that. For the
command line
I just entered mysql and a return. How can I fix this. I am off
for the week
and I would like to get this working so I can create a database or 2.
Andrew
