I have set the root password for the mysql install. I have read the manual and want to make a new database. I ran mysql_install_db (see my other mail today) which seemed to do little, then did what the manual told me with
[mysqldba@jordan bin]$ ./mysqladmin create bathjobs ./mysqladmin: CREATE DATABASE failed; error: 'Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'bathjobs'' [mysqldba@jordan bin]$ why is this happening ? I was expecting to get a blank shcema which I could create tables, grants etc. Thanks, Matt --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
