I am having problems using MYSQL on Windows ME operating system. It installs fine with no problems, but at the point where I try to connect to mysqld i get the error of bad command or file name at the dos propmt. therefore when I try to create a database I keep getting "Error-2003: Can't connect to MYSQL server on 'local host' (10061) ". I have tried uninstalling MYSQL and installing it again, and checked for the files that suppose to be there and everything seems to be fine. Please help for I need this ASAP.
Thanks you
Try:
mysql -uroot -p
when you will prompted by the password left it blank (the default install) so after you read the Manual about security change the it.
