Michael,
It is clear now after typing in p-a-s-s-w-o-r-d
into the password for the user root.
It then went through fine, but I never set up the password for the root user. Hope it
will be clear later how the password had been stored for the user root. It had to
occur before or during the
mysql
Michael,
You can look at the results after the dash lines.
You will notice
mysql -u root -h localhost -p does not help at all.
I clicked enter to by pass the password;it is acceptable for the root, but look at the
results.
C:\mysql\bin>mysql -u alan -h localhost -p
Enter password:
mysql
Michael,
This time it went through fine only when I typed in
mysql -u alan -h localhost -p
It went through fine because I already set up alan for username as well as the pasword
for (alan).
You said I could only use
mysql -u root -p to go through!
Perhaps, it will go through even tho
You set a password for root, so you must use it to connect as root. That
is, you must use -p, like this:
C:\mysql\bin>mysql -u root -h localhost -p
You'll then be prompted for the password. This is covered in the manual.
