access denied 1045

2002-11-16 Thread Zinneken
I'm completely new to mysql. I've been hunting all over the web and
mysql help/documentation but could not find a working solution to my
problem.

I installed mysql on a RAQ4 from the standard package that came from
Cobalt. I was able to set the root@host password, but unable to set
the root@localhost password and I beleive this is the source of my
proble.

When trying to do anything password related mysql I get errors ERROR
1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost'
The errors start at the basic basis: shell mysql -u root test

Having looked at the help pages it seems (thanks to Joerg Prante for
his comment on the relevant mysql documentation page otherwise I
would not have known) that there would be an issue regarding
acquiring additional privileges from the mysql administrator.
However, it is my raq and I do have (should have) all the privileges.

I must be doing something wrong, but don't know what. Anyone had the
same poblem? Anyone knowing the solution? Thanks.

Using mysql version  Cobalt MySQL Release 3.23.37-1 

The quote from Joerg:
One case not mentioned here and you get an 1045 Access denied error
is when you don't have the privilege to alter system tables using
LOCK TABLES. The connect succeeds, but a LOCK TABLES query fails.
Then you should ask the MySQL administrator to extend your
privileges. The LOCK TABLES command is writing to the system
tables. If the MySQL administrator decided to grant you all
privileges only on your database, say foo.*, this won't be
sufficient. You will need write access to 'mysql' database. If you
don't have that, you will get a MySQL error #1045 access denied at
the LOCK TABLES query. So, the case of LOCK TABLE privilege in
MySQL breaks a privilege system where administrators decided to grant
privileges ordered by database hierarchy.

Hi

Cobalt uses 'cobalt-mysql' as the default mysql root password. I spent hours
trying to sort this one out, reinstalled the whole thing, manually recreated
Mysql database all sorts

Stupid to use non standard setup really.

If that doesn't work come back to me.

 Ive searched about and still haven't been able to resolve my problem.

Scenario:

1) OS is RH 7.3.
2) Installing MySQL 4.04-Pro binary tarball.
3) Ordinary user, userX.grpX, is installing tarball themselves on a 
shared server accessed via telnet.
4) This installation will be userX's instance only, however, there are 
other MySQL server's running at this site.
5) All directories/files for this installation/implementation are owned 
by userX.grpX who has non-root access.
6) Modified my.cnf with unique values including port, socket, 
bind-address, relevant paths and values so as not to step on other 
installations/implentations.
7) my.cnf is passed through mysqld_safe using --defaults-file= option.
8) mysql_installdb is run.
9)  mysql.server is run.


Results:

1) mysqld  runs with the following log snippets:
Error Log: Warning: One can only use the --user switch if running as 
root.  
mysqld Log:  /unique-path-to-userX-installed-mysql/bin/mysqld, Version: 
4.0.4-beta-log, started with:
Tcp port: 3307  Unix socket: /unique-path-to-userX-area/temp/mysql.sock

2) When the user tries to run mysql, mysqladmin and etc the 
following error message is received:
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO).

Please note that no passwords have been setup as of yet because we can't 
get pass the access issue.


Thank You In Advance!
Anthony

Did you specify the proper socket when connecting?
Perhaps you are trying to connect to a server that DOES have a password 
set for root.
