Ok here is the short version of the problem. Installed mySQL database on Cobalt server RAQ4 using Linux. Everything worked great. Now the mysql database that is created by default with user table etc...is empty!!! (Due to a user going in using PHPmyAdmin and changing the user and password within the user table.)
There is nothing in the mySQL database and now I cannot access the mysql database due to there being an error with incorrect user and password! Well there isn't since the mysql database does not have a user grant table. The weird thing is that using PHPmyAdmin, I can manipulate the test database that is installed by default. We have tried to re-install the database and this did not work. We then tried the suggestions on this page: http://www.mysql.com/doc/D/e/Default_privileges.html And that did not work either. I then tried copying the sql commands for creating the user table etc, from another mySQL database located on a different server. This does not work either due to incorrect user and password. Can anyone help out?? I am in deep poop with this and need to find a solution to get this mySQL up and running again. Thank you for taking the time to read this and any suggestions.
