Re: mysql db creation: HELP!
... in initial setup the mysql-root-account has no pw ... (empty) So just leave the (-p) away ... maybe thats your problem. I once struggled with that also ... you can use phpmyadmin to configure your db (and accounts) very easily NullMan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
