i have working install of 3.23.46. on one server. by working, i mean that i can
get this far
c:\mysql\bin>mysql mysql>use mysql
and then run queries.
on my other server, i have reloaded 3.23.57 back from 4.04b when i was having trouble with a php page not working, (failing on the query even though that same query worked directly on the database).
i get this far only, mysql> use mysql ERROR 1044: access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'mysql'
i'm happy to start all over again with a fresh install, (which i've now tried several times), but not sure what is going on.
You haven't "logged" in to mysql. Try this:
c:\mysql\bin>mysql -u root -p Enter password:
mysql>use mysql
And now you shouldn't get an access denied messgae.
Later you may want to create another login for yourself or change the root password.
