.myd file weirdness

Recently I received a number of reports from users of my phpOpenTracker software about the following MySQL error Error: Can't open file: 'pot_visitors.MYD'. (errno: 145) The error goes away after repairing the table in question. Any idea how phpOpenTracker might trigger this?

The error is in FLOAT(1). Think about that for a moment. What's a float with one-digit precision? It's an integer. :) Edward Dudlik Becoming Digital www.becomingdigital.com - Original Message - From: Chris Webster [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 10 June, 2003

This must be a very elementary question. I am a brand new user. I was able to set the root password and can connect as root with no problem. I created a database named remembrance. Where I got stuck was when I tried creating a user. I tried to do it this way (as root): grant all on remembrance.*

What kind of system is this? If you put this line near the top of client/mysql.cc (say, after the line that includes signal.h), does the compile proceed? #include errno.h (I'm assuming that you have an errno.h somewhere on your system.) At 8:43 -0700 6/14/03, Gaurav Kumar wrote: hello mysql

Re: Set no root password

I think I have figured out what he wants: He wants to set a root password (randomly) and then save it in ~root/.my.cnf so that the root user doesn't (apparently) need a password to log into MySQL. However, any other user trying to log in as root would need to know the password. Am I close?

Simply I didn't know where the password was located in myphpadmin. I wanted it secure but I wanted to be able to get to the data with myphpadmin too. But now I know where it is I put the password in. And now I want to protect phpmyadmin so that only folks with a username/password can access
