Re: installing mysql / error

RE: installing mysql / error
This error is caused when the server isn't started. Make sure that you start the server first, then log in. When you skip the HOSTS.FRM tables (by doing mysqld --skip-grant-tables), you have to restart the server normally to effect your changes in the mysql root user.

Fw: installing mysql / error
We loaded a new server with Windows XP professional, and mysql server 4.1. We can't get Mysql to run. After installing mysql and trying to execute it we get the following message: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'ODBC' @'localhost' (using password: NO) Any ideas on what we can try and do? Thanks David.

Thanks David. Your server IS running or you wouldn't have that error, you would have seen something else. You left out a critical detail from your original post: What are you doing when you get that error? If you are attempting a connection through an ODBC driver, you need to be aware that even the most up-to-date driver acts like a pre-4.1 client. That means you may need to follow one or more of the suggestions documented here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Problems.html especially read A.2.3 : http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Old_client.html Let me know if I am on the right track, OK?

Re: Fw: installing mysql / error
I'm going to the dos window on the server and typing mysql to kick it off.

OK, mysql is the client that comes with the server. What you attempted to do was to login as nobody and you said you weren't going to provide a password. What you should have typed is mysql -u root so that you attempt to connect as the mysql user root. That is one of the two accounts set up by default when you install a new MySQL server. I think you have accomplished all of the setup steps down to here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Post-installation.html I especially think that you are ready for step 2.9.3 - Securing the Initial MySQL Accounts http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Default_privileges.html Try it out and let me know if you need more information.
