I would be extremely dumb not to set any password on MySQL's root
account at all! Of course (I hope I made that clear before) a password
has been set while installing the MySQL package. The point is that this
message is plain wrong and should be removed altogether until it works
as it claims.

 I get the message when MySQL is started. I've installed the Ubuntu
 standard package mysql-server-5.1. It has already asked for a root
 password during package configuration and I did enter some password there.

 I just tried to grep my whole filesystem for parts of this message but
 either grep failed allocating memory (there's plenty left!) or it
 didn't find the text in a file I could start something with. So I still
 don't know where the message comes from!

 Hope it helpfu!

I already followed that path and it doesn't quite help. I've done the
checks that the install script does and my installation is secure by
those means. But I don't want to install things. The server is already
up and running in production. I only want to get rid of that whole load
of messages posted to syslog. I don't know where they come from to do
further analysis.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !

2010-12-11 Thread Yves Goergen
Hi,

I find the following line in my syslog events:

Daemon Error mysqld
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !

followed by a whole lot of notes, advice and web links. I do have set a
custom password for root, root is not accessible from remote, the
anonymous user does not exist and a database named test also does not
exist. Yet still I see this message when starting the MySQL server.

How can I get rid of it?

MySQL 5.1 on Ubuntu 10.04
