Has anyone run into a problem with setting the root user password in mysql using mysqld_safe with the '--init-file' option that contains the new password for startup? What I'm seeing after I issue the kill command for the 'host.pid' file and then restarting 'mysqld_safe --init-file', is a short pause, and then an error message that mysqld is unable to start - i.e. 060213 13:28:35 mysqld ended My mysql version is 4.0.20 running on a Solaris 9 system. If there are any additional patches or workarounds that are required, I'd appreciate any advice or tips that you could pass along to me for those that have tried to create the root password in this way. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/resetting-permissions.html Thanks in advance, Matt Skarlatos -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
