I have tried installing MySql on Apache 2.0.46 and PHP latest version. I actually thought that my installation was okay, I was even able to use PHPMYADMIN to create another user. I basically created a user with my name and gave it all the same rights as the root user.
Somehow, each time I create a password for the root [EMAIL PROTECTED], I start getting access denied for root [EMAIL PROTECTED] 127.0.0.1 And then I cannot get into the database anymore. I also should note that when I use phpmyadmin and look at databases, I see the mysql database but when I look at the privileges of mysql server, I always see 2 root users, one is at localhost and the other is at %. If you all understand what I mean. I am running all these on win2000 Advanced Server with active directory. I also understand that I need to password protect my database in other to protect it. I try assigning password with the password section that follows all the GRANTS. The first option says NO PASSWORD and the second option says PASSWORD and I had to retype the password for confirmation. Is there something that I have not done properly. Thanks in advance...
