hi,experts: I installed mysql (3.23.49, server & client) at my NT4.0 machine. As I unziped and set up mysql, everything seemed fine ( I used winmysqladmin to start mysqld-nt server). That mean that the mysql server is running.
However, when I create 'root' with mysqladmin command as follows: -->g:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root password 'therootpassword' and then try to see the status og mysql using following command: -->g:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root -p status Enter Password: ************ I got the error message: mysqladmin: coonect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]' ,Using password: Yes>' Are there any mis-configuration in my installing process. Can anyone show me how to fix this problem? Thanks.
