Resetting the password error

2004-10-07 Thread FayeC SQL
 While trying to login to the server I got the following errors:


Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysql -root -p
Enter password: *
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES)

C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysql -root -p
Enter password: **
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES)

C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow
c:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password

C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root password my-password-here
c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)'

C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root -h fayec password my-password-here
c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin: connect to server at 'fayec' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)'


Then I started the service with:

C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --skip-grant-tables

I am now trying to reset my root password but I am getting errors when
trying to do so.
I followed the instructions on:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Resetting_permissions.html
but when I get to the point I have to use:

flush-privileges password newpwd

I get the following error:

'flush-privileges' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I have no clue how to go on from hereanybody?? I am trying to
login to be able to create a db but it won't let me through without a
password and it won't accept the password I had set before (pretty
sure about the old password as it is the same I use for all my local
projects).

Any tips will be extremely appreciated. Thanks in advance.

-root doesn't mean anything, so this is trying to log in as the default 
user, [EMAIL PROTECTED]  What you need is

  C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysql -u root -p
C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow
c:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password
: NO)
Same here.  Should be C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqlshow -u root -p
C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root password my-password-here
c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)'
[EMAIL PROTECTED] already has a password, so you can't change it without 
authenticating.  Try

C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root -p password my-password-here
C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root -h fayec password my-password-here
c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin: connect to server at 'fayec' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)'
Here you change your connection method, but you still didn't give the 
password.  You need -p (and [EMAIL PROTECTED] would have to be an 
authorized user).

Then I started the service with:
C:\c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --skip-grant-tables
I am now trying to reset my root password but I am getting errors when
trying to do so.

I get the following error:
'flush-privileges' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
I believe you've been bitten by bad formatting in the manual.  The command 
should be

C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root flush-privileges password newpwd
I have no clue how to go on from hereanybody?? I am trying to
login to be able to create a db but it won't let me through without a

You can try using the old-passwords option in the my.cnf file or you can try
building your ODBC driver from the bitkeeper source. I would check the
documentation to verify that the ODBC build you have supports the 4.1.+
servers.

Password error

2001-09-06 Thread Mike Ryerse

I have resently installed mysql 3.23.41 on Redhat 7.1

When I installed it, I could access the example
databases 'mysql' and 'test'.  Mysql said to change
the root password right away with :
mysqladmin -h host -u root -p password 'new password'

so I did it, but now mysql won't let me log in as any
user, not even root.

I have tried to re-install with rpm -i --force, and
uninstall with rpm -e, neither will change the
permissions of mysql.

What should I do?

THis will fail since there was no password, so
you probably still have no password for root.

The manual has a section that explains how to reset the
root password if you have forgotten it.

 
 so I did it, but now mysql won't let me log in as any

Note, do not put a space between the -p and the password normally:

mysqladmin -h host -u root --password=password

That may be why you cannot connect.

Did you really put a space in the password? Or was that for demonstration
purposes only?

Someone the other day said this worked:

started safe_mysqld with --skip-grant-tables and then did:

mysql -u root mysql
mysql UPDATE user SET password=PASSWORD('abc') WHERE User='root'
 - AND Host='whichever host you want to match'

reset root password error

2001-09-04 Thread chad

Following the manual at http://www.mysql.com/doc/R/e/Resetting_permissions.html, I 
still get the following error:

# mysqladmin -h 127.0.0.1 -u root password 'newpass'
mysqladmin: unable to change password; error: 'You must have privileges to update 
tables in the mysql database to be able to change passwords for others'

Can anyone help with this error?  A search through the mail archives and google yield 
nothing.  The system is a OpenBSD 2.9 running mysql:

# /usr/local/libexec/mysqld -V   
/usr/local/libexec/mysqld  Ver 3.23.37 for unknown-openbsd2.9 on i386

Thanks for your help,
-Chad
