Question from a Linux and MySql newbie I just installed RedHat 8.0 and MySQL. During installation there was no prompt for any database server properties (hostname, user).
Now I downloaded MySQLCC and try to configure the connection to the server. I assume the server is running, because I can start and stop it through the services interface. However, whatever info I put into the Client - it will always give me an error 145 (User can't connect). What am I doing wrong? I followed the instructions in the "INstall" file to set up a new user and got an error also. I guess that's what happens when a MSSQL guy, spoilt and unnerved by endless wizzards, tries to learn Linux.
