Just disregard that last post. I tried to change the password to the
same password. Still, it's not letting root login with a set password.

True, by default it does, I ssh'ed into the mysql server and did it that
way. Actualy it apears that now it's not changeing the password. It's
now allowing clients to login but I'm not sure what would cuse it not to
allow root to change the password, I dubble and triple checked my entry
but still nothing happens. Once I login to root I do the following

mysql> use mysql
mysql> UPDATE user SET Password= ('x')
-> WHERE user='root';

Here is the response I get

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
Rows matched: 4  Changed: 0  Warnings: 0

Not sure why nothing is changed? Anyideas. Might root not have the
privlage? if so, how might I be able to change the password?

Jerry,

Don't forget that MySQL authenticates an entity, which is based on the user
name and host. For example, on my MySQL boxes root can only login from the
localhost. If I attempt to login with root from another host, I am denied
access.

Regards,
Adam

Subject: ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using
password: YES)


Hey there all,

  Here is the problem I am haveing and was wondering if anyone can help
  me here. I was getting the following error when loging into mysql

  ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password:
  YES)

  After searching for an answer I found the answer was to re-start
  using --skip-grant-tables and change the password then restart mysql
  useing the normal startup script. This worked well.

  The next step is where I run into problems. After I log into mysql in
  the normal mode and reset the password I go back to ERROR 1045: Access
  denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password:YES). Also, other
  users are reporting that they can't access thier databases. Based on
  what I am seeing here I am able to login to mysql as root as long as
  there is no password. Once I set a password it wont let me connect.
  Also found that users can't login to the databases.

  Does anyone have any idea whats going on and how I might be able to
  resove this problem?

  
Thanks,
