I have been reading and following the instructions from: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Resetting_permissions.html
But, if I do: ./bin/mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables And then I: mysqladmin -u root password 'mypassword' I get: mysqladmin: unable to change password; error: 'You must have privileges to update tables in the mysql database to be able to change passwords for others' this is a 3.2 install that was working just fine but I just did an upgrade to 4.1. I think I did the ?update permissions? script ok when I did the install. But is this the problem? --ja -- -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
