You may need to stop the server (by killing it), start it without access
control (passing the -Sg flag to mysqld), altering the privileges and/or
passwords, killing it again (this time with 'mysqladmin shutdown'), then
starting it up normally. If you have started the database server but do
not have any users who are allowed to connect, then you'll need to do
this.
