I am pretty new to MySQL, in fact that also covers Linux as well.
I have Mandrake 8.0 which I have installed MySQL using the RPM format.
I plan to write code (python) to access the database to manage what
data it may hold.
The server automatically starts on boot - which is fine.
To be able to do anything with MySQL I have to be logged on as 'root'
If I try to access the database I have created under my normal logon
('pmoscatt') I get the following error message:
ERROR 1044: Access denied for user '@localhost' to database 'MCMaint'
I have read the manual to see how I can get around this but find it
confusing.
Can anyone help me to allow me to access databases under my normal user
account.
Pete
